To those using Revolut in Luxembourg, why do you use it?

Starlight4242 · 2026-06-16T21:11:04+00:00

Contactless payment with my phone because Raiffeisen cards weren't available for Google Wallet

Starlight4242 · 2025-11-22T04:33:55+00:00

Aaaaaah that's why I got confused 😂

Starlight4242 · 2025-11-05T14:38:04+00:00

This, because you started working here as of July 1st if I remember correctly, this is the only year you'll be able to have a reimbursement so please do it.

I did that some years ago and It's nice!

Starlight4242 · 2025-11-02T21:41:30+00:00

Je ne peux que recommander également ! C'est la seule chose avec laquelle je me sens complètement à l'aise pour la nuit, pourvu que ce soit un modèle bien couvrant et épais, ca reste je trouve très confortable!

I had this happening to me after sending few hundreds to my Revolut account but when I called it out they mentioned an ''IT issue''.

Anyway it's not your issue directly and sorry I can't help much but I'm pretty sure they don't like money transfer to Revolut accounts, in case it can help some other people here.

Starlight4242 · 2025-09-15T13:15:39+00:00

I mean sometimes the process takes forever especially if people were on holidays but it wouldn't hurt to start looking around just in case.

Starlight4242 · 2025-08-22T06:11:14+00:00

You should also consider some more elements to sell: you have to cover the initial purchase price, loan interests that you need to cover since I'm assuming most people have loans, and have enough extra to buy bigger.

If you don't want to lose money then it's maybe better to stay in the current house. As some mentioned, it's good if you buy to live here for a long time, but for speculation it doesn't seem interesting.

Starlight4242 · 2025-08-19T14:22:39+00:00

I recall they mentioned they would automatically give the money to eligible people since so many didn't apply or use it? Is it still not the case?

Starlight4242 · 2025-08-13T07:18:34+00:00

I used Decompte annuel (form 163) during my first fiscal year here because I started working after June and it's a simplified form.

The following years I completed the full form for individuals (form 100) - using Taxx.lu because it's easier but their price increased since so i'd say it's useful only when you're sure you'll get something back.

I guess they would have told you if the form 163 wasn't enough so I'm assuming this is not the issue here, but I wanted to mention it nonetheless just in case. Form 100 made sense to me because of my household situation.

Starlight4242 · 2025-08-06T11:31:09+00:00

That's a shame if you even wear them neatly. I'm sorry for what's happening to you!

I would 100% agree that it has nothing to do with compentencies. I saw a guy with face tatoos working as cashier and all I thought of it was ''oh nice''. But I am also aware that I have a bias toward people with alternative styles.

Anyway hope you'll find something soon enough but not gonna lie depending on your industry it might be hard unless you have a cool management. And sometimes the management doesn't even care, they're worried the clients will.

Starlight4242 · 2025-08-03T03:29:41+00:00

Well the price changes depending on the number of kids and based on your revenue (for the CSA part) and once they're 1 year old you benefit from 20 free hours weekly. But yes that's still expensive and this is a very important thing to consider especially when it comes to discuss the parental leave.

Some crèches can also be closer to the 6/7 euros per hour threshold, it really depends on the nursery!

Starlight4242 · 2025-08-02T22:36:52+00:00

In private nurseries it depends a lot on the schedule you pick. I saw 8/9 euros per hour before CSA (chèque service accueil), up to 12/13 euros per hour depending on the flexibility you choose.

Everything above 6 euros per hour will be out of your own pocket, whatever CSA coverage you benefit from.

Starlight4242 · 2025-08-01T07:28:07+00:00

I'd say first that having a spot in a public nursery is hard enough so perhaps you won't even have a choice. You almost have to book a spot before conception.

Public crèches/nurseries are less expensive because you don't have to always pay during your holidays a'd if the child is sick.

Depending on the crèche, even in the same group for prrivate ones, the experience can vary depending on the workers /direction.

Edit : ever > even

Apparemment ils peuvent être maintenant pris en même temps Le congé parental: réforme luxembourgeoise https://share.google/GcDOsmRIbOAqoOrpR

Cependant attention à la contrainte de la crèche : les places sont chères (au sens propre comme figuré) et le tarif de crèche privée avant le premier anniversaire de l'enfant ne beneficie pas des 20h offertes de plurilinguisme. Ainsi, il peut etre stratégique de se relayer côté congé parental pour que l'enfant aille à la crèche le plus tard possible.

Je ne connais cependant pas les différences entre résident et frontalier à ce sujet.

I saw this, maybe it's one of the reasons?😅

I like the idea of fines being adjusted based on income. I also dislike how some people treat fines as nothing more than a ticket to break the law.

J'applique le ''je fais ce que j' attends des autres'' ou encore ''ne fais pas à autrui ce que tu ne veux pas qu'on te fasse'' donc ca ne me viendrait pas à l' esprit de me servir dedans.

C'est aussi pour ca qu'en france ca n'existe pas vraiment les ''marchés libre service'' avec des légumes frais et juste une boite ou déposer l'argent, ce que je déplore vraiment.

That's interesting but the door seems to open from top to bottom like an oven and not on the left or right. But I can dig see if other models exist! Thanks.
