Login issues for some Revolut users resolved

Revolt has said a "short technical issue" with its app, which meant some customers were unable to log in, has now been resolved.

Earlier, some users of the online banking app said they had been logged out of the service when they tried to access it and are encountering difficulties when they entered their sign-in details.

Customers also took to social media to complain about the problem.

According to the system status page on Revolut's website, sign-in services were "partially unavailable" for a time.

In a statement, Revolt said: "We experienced a short technical issue with our app this afternoon that meant some customers were unable to log in.

"The issue was quickly identified and has now been fixed, and the app is working fully for those affected.

"Most of our customers were unaffected, and all our customers' money and data are safe. We apologise for any inconvenience caused."

Last week, Revolut services were disrupted for several hours due to a problem with Google's cloud services.

It came off the back of two data breaches at the company.

Just over a month ago, on 14 September, Revolut told some of its customers that copies of their passports and driving licences, along with their dates of birth, home addresses, email addresses and phone numbers, were accessed by criminals.

The company has not said how many people were affected by the breach, or where they live.

Ten days later, Revolut customers in Ireland were informed they were among those impacted by a data breach at a third-party provider.

DriveWealth, a US broker that carries out US stock trades for Revolut customers, said a security incident affecting its systems involved unauthorised access to historical personal data of some DriveWealth customers.
