Another added: ‘You are broken @monzo. Online payment keeps declining. A quick search on here and there are many others with issues this morning…’

And one vented: ‘I think it’s time to jump ship from @monzo app is constantly not working. Support is basically non-existent (despite paying £15 a month!!) It was a good run, but they’ve finally run it into the ground.’

While Monzo is yet to put out an official statement, it has replied to several of the tweets. 

In response to one user, it said: ‘We know this situation is far from ideal. 

‘Our team are aware of this issue and working hard to resolve this as soon as possible. We really appreciate your ongoing patience here.’
