A post was split to a new topic: Virgin Money accounts
Ah, that email makes sense to me then as to why I did not receive it.
I did not get the duplicate and troublesome text that was involved.
Fair enough.
Ah I see, good of them to have tracked down who were sent them and then send out an email. Iāll happily receive some more erroneous texts from my other banks for 15 quid a pop!
I just want Starling to start having 5 outages a month again
I started complaining that it wasnāt good enough in-case I needed to use my card, told them I only use credit
They paid me Ā£30 an outage and it was a happy time all the two times it happened
Still no Ā£15, but Iāll not hassle them. 
Iām Ā£15 richer - thanks Atom

The Ā£15 is classed as interest, I noticed.
Presumably makes sense to them.
Iāll update the title to accommodate broader points about Atom Bankā¦
So taxable for some then.

Only if Atom report the Ā£15 to HMRC, along with the ānormalā interest.
Not only have they stolen your catchphrase @Graham they still havenāt taken the feedback on board yet!
Too rightā¦ā¦ā¦ and too right

I regret that the Vault remains an utter mess. The number of times theyāve been prodded about simplifying it are legion.
Itās got to be the simplest of fixesā¦
Hey ho. Not a disaster.
If youāre still waiting for Atom to launch current accounts after 5 years of them promising it was coming soon, I wouldnāt hold your breathā¦
Have you got any plans to introduce a current account? MM: We donāt have active plans at the moment, but we are building the technology capabilities that will allow us to do it when we decide the time is right.
Thatās a bit disappointing in all honesty.
More from the Mark Mullen Q&A here:
To be honest, their app would need a massive overhaul before it could be capable of supporting current account things. Like bin the whole thing and start from scratch levels of overhaul

Not a particularly inciteful or eye opening Q&A, is it?
