Review of the Jaja Finance, Credit Card:

Very easy and responsible credit card provider

So far nothing but a positive experience with a Jaja credit card. Main point is that it just works (as a credit card should!). But the setup makes it easy to use the card well, from direct debit payments, the ability to freeze the card, notifications about spending and balance management, and the application process. And of course in-app approvals of online spends, Reviewed on: 24th May 2024

should be called haha as they are an absolute joke

Avoid this place like the plague. they don't send statements then charge you a fee for late payment. Impossible to get through on the phone, and when you get through no help at all. Reviewed on: 31st October 2020

Is this a training site for new credit card operatives?

Forced to use JaJa (does that really sound like a professional name for a card dealing with finances?) after Post office bailed out from BoI. Utterly useless apart from one operative who we finally got to speak to and who dealt with our problem...others sounded like they were reading from training manuals, were hard to understand, treated us as idiots etc. Their security system for trying to access your account is flawed, it requires inputting a 4 figure number sent to your phone - you are allowed 30 seconds...but then your number doesn’t arrive for 20 seconds - don’t make a mistake!! We ended up losing our security clearance until their one operative who knew what she was doing sorted it out and got them a second star. Best of luck. P.S....they do always say they’re sorry!

Awful Company To be Avoided

This company is money grabbing, abysmal long waits followed by unprofessional call handlers that make you wonder if you are through to a real company. Very dodgy, so much so that after initial contact with after changeover from Post Office I am cutting up my JaJa card and closing my account. Reviewed on: 28th October 2020

hideous

AA handed over to these idiots ,AA were bad enough but no its even worse.app wont work ,biometrics dont work ,doesnt log you out ,online doesnt recognise my details ,very very unsafe app ,im almost sure jaja finance is a bunch of monkeys operating out of london zoo ,YOU ARE DISTRESSING PEOPLE SORT IT OUT ,you may get some extra bananas.

Simply Awful

A month after transfer from Post Office I still cant access my details via app or online. Five calls made (each one in queue for 45 mins plus) and still no resolution. Awful Awful Awful Reviewed on: 27th October 2020

Appalling cockup

When the app wouldn’t accept any of my details I then spent 40 minutes waiting for my call to BOI to be answered. After another 40 mins talking to somebody it still didn’t work and was told they are trying to update the app. BOI should be ashamed of their mishandling of this credit card transfer and the inconvenience it is causing.

appalling

BOI transferred my card to this crowd. I had m BOI card for sixteen years. I never had an issue or a problem. My credit card was taken off my BOI app - I tried repeatedly to register with JAJA and the App simply would not recognise my details. I rang them three times to register - 45 minutes each time. I was told there was IT problems and that I would receive an email. I received nothing. I sent messages to BOI for a complaints email address for JAJA and was told it was nothing to do with them. I was left in a situation where I didn't know balance and how to pay it off as there is no physical presence NI. Just horrendous. I just the card up, transferred the balance and went elsewhere. Reviewed on: 26th October 2020

Bank of Ireland Transfer

B of I sold credit card services to JaJa. I was automatically moved over. I tried to register online but they did not recognise my number. I rang the helpline and was kept waiting for 15 minutes each time. The most annoying thing is the voice keeps telling me that I can use the online service which I can't. They have yet to sort the matter out now into second week. Very poor service. No email address to contact. Reviewed on: 25th October 2020

I would give this 0 stars if i could.

I would give this 0 stars if i could. Forced to use there servives by Post Office. Totally unable to register via app, website or phone. Totally unable to pay off my balance over the phone, i just wanted to pay it off and cancel the service. Unfortunately i can't. Reviewed on: 25th October 2020

So far happy as all went through smoothly

Just registered successfully from first attempt and downloaded the App. All went smoth, balance matches to expenses; added debit card payment through website (as been advised in Q&A section)-now it's shows on App too. Had choice of paying in full, minimum or other ammount. Payment went through but I'll be waiting to see it on App for 2-3 days as described in Q&A section. Regarding payment options- on the back of the paper bill which i received as usual- Bank/PostOffice included. Hopefully I'll be as happy with JAJA in a future as still expecting to receive new card as old one from Post Office expires soon. Reviewed on: 24th October 2020
