In early October 2026, Revolut users in Hungary reported a technical error where previous purchases at various merchants—including Penny, Lidl, and Rossmann—were unexpectedly reversed and funds returned to accounts. At the time, the company’s status page indicated services were functioning normally.

By October 20, the situation escalated into widespread service disruptions affecting users in Hungary, Romania, and the United Kingdom. These outages prevented customers from accessing the mobile application, checking balances, making card payments, or withdrawing cash from ATMs. Revolut acknowledged the disruption on social media, noting that certain functions were temporarily unavailable while technical teams worked toward a resolution.
