Press the quote icon:

 


You should end up with something like this:

Code
[quote="Ally"]
Have a free tenner, Happy Christmas :grin:

Brilliant exchange rates, great for foreign use, fantastic App.


Open a Monzo account and you'll get £10 for free. Merry Christmas from me! https://monzo.com/referral?code=vi4k4zp
[/quote]



Type your message below and press submit.

So:

Code
[quote="Ally"]

and

[/quote]


Need to be at the start and end of the message you are quoting.

DO NOT edit those tags
Code
[quote] and [/quote]


the / ends the quote [/quote]

quote without a / begins the quote [quote]

Like this.
It multi quotes, so if there are a couple of conversations you need to quote. You can quote one and then another and THEN hit reply.
