last year N26 was like: "we've just opened our London hub. we're adding hundreds every day. we'll be hiring hundreds of people".

this year: "With the UK having left the EU at the end of January, we will in due course no longer be able to operate in the UK with our European banking licence. Therefore, we are writing to share the news that we will be leaving the UK and closing all accounts."

translation: "not enough signed up in order for us to apply to the UK regulators."

honestly, this was by far the worst kind of response any startup can have. really amateurish.
