Iāve applied to a business account and our application has been rejected and not even eligible for āappealā. Our business is incorporated in UK since 1999 and no reasons have been provided to understand why. I am really offended by this ādecisionā and it is my right to understand the reasons, to let me correct this if I can or know what mistakes Iāve done through the application process. Our business is already with multiple banks in UK and very recognised. I need the respective team to discuss this with them. Best Regards, Ali

Hello, unfortunately my application was rejected , My company is register in UK, but now I am in Taiwan working, and put by mistake Taiwanise adress as company, and Revolut reject my application, I cannot do anything, have this can be solved? I need Revolut business account asap, please help
Welcome to our community @bofa. I can understand your concern. I would request you to kindly contact us through in-app chat for this so that we can help you further.
Hi there, I had my application rejected 3 years ago probably on the base that it was a non-typical company (one shareholder with almost no capital). Now, 3 years later, my company is well incorporated with capitalā¦ but email and phone numbers are the same. Revolut doesnāt allow me even to start application on that sole base. I canāt even chat with anyone because I canāt login. Any solution?

My Revolut Business application was rejected, likely due to my residence outside the EEA. If I appoint a second director in the EEA, could this address the eligibility criteria and lead to a successful application?

Can we receive an explanation why our company isnāt approved ?
We have send over every document you needed
Weāre a brand new company just starting and I donāt see why this is happening
Our company has received so many good points on that we need to use REVOLUT BUSINESS and right now weāre being rejected even before finishing our starting account
My company (LTD) is 100% eligible for Revolut Business just like my current company on Revolut (OĆ) but it was rejected the first time for no reason so I asked support to delete my LTD account and then made a new request which was also rejected without any valid reasonā¦
Support sends me ready-made messages and I find myself with a company rejected by your artificial intelligence. I doubt there was any human verification, otherwise the problem would already have been solved.
All my information was approved except for the nature of my business, which is selling womenās clothing on my website.
Iām a very meticulous person, so I always provide the right information in the right place, but thereās absolutely nothing I can doā¦
Iām very frustrated because Iāve been working with you for 2 years, maybe the best solution is Wiseā¦
I am really sorry that your business application got rejected. I completely get your concern.
Please understand that to check the reason behind the rejection, we need some personal details which will not be possible here as this is a public platform. Therefore, please check the solution where we have mentioned how to contact us so that we can resolve your issue as soon as possible. Thank you for your understanding.
I hope youāre all doing well. I received an email this morning from Revolut stating that unfortunately, they are unable to provide me with a business account. However, the email didnāt provide any explanation as to why my application was declined which is really disrespectful and offending, and it simply stated that my application has been closed, even though everything I do is legit and legal.
Iām quite puzzled by this as Iāve gone through the process diligently and was expecting a positive outcome. Could you please shed some light on what might be going on? Iām feeling a bit frustrated and confused at the moment, as it feels like Iāve invested time and effort into the process without any clear explanation for the outcome.
I attempted to open a business account for my limited company, which seems to align with Revolutās offerings. However, I encountered this unexpected rejection. Is there any way you could help me understand why my application was rejected or if thereās any possibility for reconsideration or reapplication? I tried contacting you on twitter and facebook but nobody replies, this decision not only has offended me, by not even giving me the courtesy of telling me why my application got rejected, but I canāt even appeal it or contact the support.
I hope somebody reads this, Iām really disappointed in your service.
