Arman I really, really hope they won't ever continue that gambling game! I'm looking for a professional bank, not a casino! Furthermore, the gambling advert that is placed on every bunq.me page looks so dodgy that you can't use that lovely feature for anything serious. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Yes I saw it , but will be something like jackpot? If not , I believe canceling it is not good thing and many users will closed their account

Arman but will be something like jackpot?

The title of the linked page is: "We’re replacing bunq Jackpot with something even better!" After it has been properly introduced, then you can decide whether you agree with that.

Arman To be honest, I think a lot of users (like me) want bunq to stop these lottery things... But during bunq update #21, on 11 October, bunq will give more info.

Actually for me and my friends the jackpot is good ideas , otherwise, there is some banks which provide thecsame services as Bunq but lottery;

Arman I'm fine with just disabling the Jackpot feature and keep using bunq, as I'm doing now. There's really not an alternative for bunq in the Netherlands that offers all bunq's features. That's why I keep using bunq. As long as there's an option to turn things off, I'm okay!

Nathanael-mf

I understand but in France there are more than 3 alternatives

Arman Unfortunately, I don't live in France ;)

HI, if you refer to Revolut and N26 ... those are available in NL also.. but I would not consider them as alternatives.
That's anyway my opinion after having used both.
Cheers

Actually there is French alternative but not Revolut or N26

Nathanael-mf

I think it’s better to be waiting for the Bunq updates

DavideXausa

I'll be there at the launch of the update

Nathanael-mf

If you don’t like this feature you can turned off ! I’m sure a lot of people looking for such a feature to try their chances

New-Lilac-Sloth-1702461962

Arman Yes, you have the option to decide that you don't want to be able to win, but I even if you are NOT participating in the lottery you are still forced to share gambling adverts with every of your bunq me links!

Don't you have any proper lotteries in France? 😅

The lack of this feature will lead to a decrease in bank customers
