  • Sharing requests via Whatsapp is not possible anymore

@Jan-Purple-Lion-3796003763#25565 I really hope this feature returns sooner than later.

You raise a valid point: reliability. I went all in with bunq a couple of months ago after the debacle with the 800% price increase. I kinda hoped/expected they would have learned from that. Especially on the communication front. Unfortunately it appears not much has been changed since then. Why wasn’t this mentioned In the changelogs? Where is an official bunq statement on this matter?

You can’t do this when people pay 100 euros/year for your service.

Also, in private matters I was told this feature was removed to clean up the app, but I honestly cannot believe that. To me it looks like a way to force people into using bunq.me and lure in new subscribers. This is not the way to go.

    Go bunq, bring it back!

      So many people are asking for this functionality to come back. I think it’s only a matter of time before we see ‘advanced requests’ back in the app.

        Totally agree. Why deleting the function that makes it easier to get your money back? Just let me fill in the amount

          @Arnim#24805 Doesn't work for me

            Please bring this function back. Now I can't even request someone to pay from another bank if they have bunq as well....

              @Vaarkamp#25660 It looks like that method is only working in the Android app, for now..

                @Bastiaan#25664 Yeah... It's a shame..... Hope they will get it back soon.

                  Why did someone remove the request by WhatsApp function?

                    Yes would love to see this feature return. Switching to Tikkie in the meantime 😬

                      I hope the request function will come back :)!

                        I request to reinstate the request function ;)

                          Its already 2 days ago that this thread is started and not anyone from bunq has responded. Seriously?!?

                          You guys still have a lot to learn about reliability, responsability and communication.

                            This is actually one of the most used features for me. It needs to be back asap.

                              Love to see this functionality to come back!

                                Removing a feature to force people to use your new feature isn’t user-centric. Bunq is trying to force their own views on how things should work at the expense of their customers. This is bad development and a bit worrying to be honest. Consider also the loss of overview: when creating an old style request, the request stayed open in the app overview. This way I could (somewhat) easily see if everybody had payed my request from within the app. This functionality is also gone. Even within Tikkie I can see which request are still open, making it the better choice at the moment.

                                  Please add this back. I used the request button very regularly, now it's just a waste of screen real estate. SMS? Really? This new (actually the old) way of doing requests keeps the app simple in stead of a "share link" button?? I cried so hard to get that share link button and in the end it didn't even matter. Are we really back to the "email yourself a link and copy it into a WhatsApp group"-days, I can't believe it!

                                    @Tobias-Teal-Panther#25376 I don't have the feature on Android, or at least it reverted to the old SMS or email only options and is thus almost useless.

                                      @Arnim#24853 This worked for me thanks!!

                                        It is now possible look at the post from Arnim!
