So yes , sorry.
Iām almost certain to get a bank license you are regulated by the fca and as such will have a certain amount of cover

Youād have to check if there is a deposit guarantee scheme in the UK and who and how much is covered. The Irish regulated banks are covered to the tune of 100k per deposit but in the last crash the government covered all of the deposits for commercial reasons. I wouldnāt be putting anything other than loose change with Revolut.

Fifteen hundy for some cack-hander to puck a few balls in front of a load of suits from the mainland. 
Bit of advice. Would it be safe to use revolut to exchange a decent sum of money into Euro, say, 50k?
From the recent exchange rates offered by revolut Iāve found my own bankās rates better even with commish
I find a lot of these apps trade on the moral āthe man with the reputation for getting up early can stay in bed as late as he wantsā

No he uses clear currency usually who are great but itās a bit of a ballache compared to an app. It involves emails and the like.
I havenāt a clue but I was told once by a retired revenue man to keep all your transactions under 10k. Otherwise itās like a red rag to a bull. The banks must report it.
So split it up multiple ways would be my advice.
