  • Sharing the bunq Pack (2)

@Dominik-Cyan-Panther#157298 You can add and remove people as you like as the owner. There is of course some risk depending on how you set it up for the owner or the participants. I‘m a pack owner now for a long time and never had any problems, but theoretically somebody could decide to not pay you. Of course, then you‘d just kick that person and find another one probably.

    I also have a free spot in my pack: if you transfer €0,01 and leave your phone number and/or email in the description, I’ll get back to you asap. https://bunq.me/pt

      @OlivierV#157434 I'm not sure how it works and who has access to what.

      The accounts are completely isolated. The only thing that happens is that the initiator pays the bill of €19,99 and has to request the money from the other participants. So, theoretically, someone could not pay their share of the bill, but then you kick them out and find someone else. Most initiators require upfront payment, in case someone doesn't pay then you can still quickly find someone else for the remainder of the month. Only the Pack owner can see the name + public avatar of the persons in his/her Pack. Nothing else, nothing about usage, IBANs, messages, nothing.

      The other way around, as a participant in someone else's Pack, I cannot even see who else is in the Pack. The only thing I see is that my membership is "bunq Pack", and I can choose to leave it. As participant I cannot even see the name/picture of the initiator of "my" Pack (or not that I know of at least). You theoretically risk being kicked out of the Pack after being paid; your theoretical loss would be max. €5,-. That's a small risk you need to consider whether you are willing to take it or not. Even when you get kicked out it is not the case that everything stops working: you will be reverted to Premium, and all your IBANs etc will remain as usual. 🙂

      Hope this clarifies the matter, there is little risk to sharing the Pack with strangers, but I completely understand that not everyone is up to it. 🙂

        A couple of tips here:

        Pack Owners

        • Share a (temporary) bunq.me link and ask people to transfer €0,01 including their phone number or email address in the payment description.
        • Ask the new Pack member to setup a recurring transfer at a specific date or time, for example the 1st of the month.
        • Get in contact with the user if they fail to pay their part, possible remove them from the Pack if they don't honor your agreements.
        • Don't forget to update your comment to share that your Pack is full.

        Pack Members

        • Look for a Pack owner with an available spot in their Pack. Transfer them the €0,01 with your contact details, instead of posting your phone number or email address on this public forum.
        • Come to an agreement (usually transferring €5 per month on a fixed date by a recurring transfer).

        This is a public community forum, be aware of that when posting your email address or phone number here.

        Be fair, honor agreements and inform each other in case something happens. Sharing Pack is at your own risk. Most important, enjoy bunq to the fullest! 🌈

          A bunq Pack owner can invite you, the SuperGreen part is charged separately to the Pack member and not the Pack owner.

            I need two spots in a pack or two people wanting to join a pack. Who has something?

              @JeroenE#157576 Das ist mir bewusst und würde oben ja auch schon erklärt. Joint gibt es aber jetzt nicht mehr somit bleibt für die Leute die keine 8€ zahlen möchten nur das Pack.

                @Daniel-Violet-Lion-3087807540#157723 This topic is really just for finding and overing spots in bunq packs. Nothing more or less.
                If you have something to discuss, get into another topic or open your own!

                  @Eyup#157571 Hi, still need two spots in a pack?

                    I'm looking for 2 spots in a pack, or 2 people willing to join a pack

                      @Harun-Golden-Cheetah#157790 Yes. I dont know howto. But you can contact me

                        @tttttt#157802 Still looking? I am interested but dont know how to contact anyone...

                          Hi @Eyup#157823

                          Usually a Pack Owner shares a (newly created) bunq.me link and ask a possible Pack member to pay €0,01 including their number or email address in the description. You can add a user based on the email address or number they have linked to their bunq account. I would be careful sharing this information directly on Together as it's a public platform.

                            @Eyup#157823 or share a bunk.me link like mentioned above

                              @tttttt#157828 Sent you an email

                                @Eyup#157832 sent you a reply with more contacts/info
