Presently I have a bunch of transactions in my Revolut account named “Paypal”.
From my perspective that’s no help at all, need to know WHO the money was spent with via the Paypal intermediary.
Revolut already has this information, it’s just not displayed in the app… (Already wasted a bunch of support time having them let me know who certain mystery transactions were with.)
SUGGEST: improve the processing of data to include the name of the entity to whom money was paid using PayPal. (In fact that is the primary information “PayPal” could itself be in brackets afterwards.)
This seems to be the same issue users of Revolut and Curve had in the past. Instead of providing the information given from Curve, Revolut marked all transactions as Curve. Seems to me Revolut should is able to relay the orginal information if enough users want this.
As a workaround for now, you can manually add a text note to transactions. Those notes are searchable as well, but of course you have to add them right away after the transaction to keep track of them.
I’ve only had two PayPal transaction lately, but it looks like when the transaction clear and changes from “Pending’’ to ‘’Completed’’ the transaction gets updated with the name of the merchant.
