Well that would rely on you being able to call Monzo in the first place. None of the numbers you are able to find take you to a person, instead infinitely redirecting you to use the in-app chat... which is more "Leave us a message and we'll pick it up on Monday" than an actual live chat.

Background: Monzo froze _all_ of my bank accounts for nearly 5 days after triggering some fraud protection measures. Great in theory... until you are completely unable to speak to anyone.

Whilst casting isnt for me... this website definitely is. One helluva error page too... "END OF THE INTERNET"

Im vegan. I eat "fake meat" products all the time. I get to enjoy everything I used to eat... without the meat. Personally, I really enjoy them.

_Any_ message without context leaves me anxious. I can't tell you why, but getting a blind invite from the HoE with various C-suites on it always gets me spooked. I hate it, but after 17 years, I get on with it. Usually a quick message to someone to ask for some context as to what the meet is about is enough to calm me.
This is by far the best bit of journalism I've seen from Vice in a while.
