Editorial corrections.
Mistakes we made and what we did about them.

Neobanks Guide is YMYL territory — readers act on what we write with their salary, their savings, and their household cashflow. A factual error on a deposit-protection page or a regulator classification can cost a reader real money or real time. Public corrections logs exist because, in YMYL, the question is not whether a publisher will get something wrong, it is how visibly they fix it. Google's E-E-A-T quality-rater guidelines name a visible corrections affordance as a Trust signal. We name ours here.

29 Sep 2026 Revolut UK banking licence news (25 Jun 2026)

FSCS limit explanation corrected.

The article gave the right figure — UK deposits covered by the FSCS up to £120,000 per person — but a wrong explanation: it called this "double the former standard £85,000 limit" and attributed it to Revolut Bank UK Ltd and Revolut Ltd being treated as separate entities. £120,000 is not double £85,000, and it is not specific to Revolut: it is the standard FSCS limit for every UK bank since it rose from £85,000 on 1 December 2025 (FSCS). The sentence has been corrected in all language versions.

29 Apr 2026 Revolut Singapore review

Revolut Singapore SDIC misclassification corrected.

The page previously stated that Revolut Singapore was an SDIC member with SGD 100,000 deposit insurance. That is incorrect. Revolut Singapore Pte Ltd operates under a Major Payment Institution licence as a Stored Value Facility (SVF) issuer; customer balances are not eligible for SDIC deposit insurance. Funds are safeguarded at custodian banks (Citibank and others) under MAS safeguarding rules — a different protection model with different recovery mechanics. The review has been rewritten to classify Revolut Singapore correctly as an SVF and to explain the safeguarding chain in plain language.

22 Apr 2026 Vivid Money review

Vivid Money retail-banking exit not reflected.

The review positioned Vivid Money as a retail consumer product despite the company having announced a discontinuation of retail-banking development on 13 March 2025, concentrating subsequent product work on SMEs and freelancers. Our own news archive carried the announcement on the day, but the long-form review was not updated to match. The page now correctly positions Vivid as an SME / freelancer product and explicitly steers retail readers to alternatives that still serve consumers.

22 Apr 2026 Is N26 safe?

N26 December 2025 BaFin measures clarification.

Earlier copy on this page was ambiguous about the customer-impact split of the December 2025 BaFin measures (capital-buffer order plus restrictions on new mortgage lending in the Netherlands). To be precise: those measures are prudential. They affect N26's lending growth, not customer deposits. They do not change DGS coverage, which remains the German statutory €100,000 per depositor. The page has been edited to draw that line cleanly.
