[novum]

I used Billmonk for years with my flatmates until, sometime last year, their site became so consistently unreliable -- and often unreachable -- that we moved to a competitor (splitwise).

I heard nothing from Billmonk for months until this odd email, on March 30:

  It's been a while. Our apologies for the long silence. 

  We know many of you have complained about the downtime of BillMonk, 
  especially over the last 6 months. Well, we heard your call
  and are acting on it now.

  Uptime is coming. We have some exciting news for you lined up next week!

Best of luck to the billmonk team. We've moved on.
