So your Monzo account is looking like a tumbleweed convention? Don't panic, financially-challenged friend! Let's fatten that balance quicker than a squirrel on payday.
Method 1: The Classic Bank Transfer - AKA "Boring but Reliable"
This one's the financial equivalent of white bread: simple, predictable, and gets the job done. Fire up your other bank's app (assuming you haven't used it as a coaster), find your trusty Monzo account number and sort code (hidden in the app under "Account" somewhere, probably guarded by a three-headed budgeting dragon), and send those virtual pennies on their merry way. Just remember, bank transfers can be as slow as a sloth on Stilton, so plan ahead like a squirrel preparing for winter (or a particularly aggressive Black Friday sale).
Method 2: PayPoint Power - AKA "Convenience with a £1 Pinch"
Tip: Use this post as a starting point for exploration.
Think of PayPoint like the financial fairy godmother who lives in every corner shop. Find a store adorned with the magical PayPoint logo (think corner shops, newsagents, your local emporium of questionable sweets), hand over your cash and card, and voila! Money magically materializes in your Monzo account. Just be warned, this fairy godmother has a bit of a sweet tooth: there's a £1 fee for every deposit. But hey, think of it as a donation to the "Keep Questionable Corner Shops Alive" fund.
Method 3: Direct Deposit Hero - AKA "Set It and Forget It"
QuickTip: Scan quickly, then go deeper where needed.
This is the financial equivalent of putting your finances on autopilot. Convince your employer that you're basically the next Warren Buffett (even if your investment strategy involves mainly Haribo gummies), and get that sweet salary beamed straight into your Monzo account. Watch your balance grow like a chia pet on steroids, and bask in the glory of never having to manually transfer money again. Just remember, great power comes great responsibility (like remembering to buy birthday cake for your colleagues).

Bonus Method: The "I'm Desperate" Gambit
Tip: Pause if your attention drifts.
Okay, this one's a bit unorthodox, but hey, desperate times call for desperate measures. Dust off your juggling skills (or your questionable kazoo solo act), hit the streets, and entertain the masses for cold, hard cash. Just make sure your performance doesn't land you in jail, because that'll put a real damper on your Monzo-filling plans.
Remember: Whichever method you choose, just keep one thing in mind: topping up your Monzo account shouldn't feel like scaling Mount Everest in flip-flops. Choose the option that fits your financial circus act, and watch that balance climb higher than a squirrel on a caffeine bender. Now go forth and conquer, financially-empowered friend!
QuickTip: Read section by section for better flow.
P.S. If you manage to invent a money-printing machine powered by interpretive dance, do let me know. I'm all ears (and potentially very interested in a business partnership).
