    Revolut Business is also down, which does business banking including payment terminals & online subscription processing, so this is going to disable quite a few businesses, in addition to normal consumer payment flows.

    They've been expanding hard across Europe recently, this might dent people's confidence in these new fangled neobanks a bit...

    From their last filings, they have 70+ million individual customers, 850k business customers. Highest in the UK: about 13 million, so nearly 20% of the population. Ouch.

    So this is what it feels like to enter a world of financial anxiety due to AI-enabled attacks against banks. No idea as to what caused the service outage, but I've felt like it's just a matter of time before AI was used to try to breach a financial institution, which just so happens to hold a lot of my money.

    I confirm, first down for me after 4 years of usage. Got little scared at first that I had my account blocked...

    Their stauts page is now updated, but it got them some while. This looks pretty major.

    That’s the first time a service goes down that hard?
