TW I understand but surely revolut has protection as it's a proper bank albeit virtual (as in no branches).
It is a proper bank, but not in the UK. Only in the EU, so you'd need the account with the Lithuanian IBAN rather than the UK one, as the latter is just an e-money provider.
Both still have a form of protection as the clients funds are ring fenced and not available to creditors should anything happen, but it's a more awkward process than the FSCS.
Personally I don't think there is much danger with with either of them, but it makes sense to play it safe where possible.
