JL/Waitrose card(s) are a waste of time. I’ve had this card (John Lewis / Waitrose) for some years now. I used to get a set of 5 Waitrose money-off vouchers each week from which I could choo... Read more Reviewed on: 17th October 2024

Partnership Credit card - ditch at all cost

Absolutely atrocious customer service, fraud team is incompetent, card been blocked for over 1 week now. Will definitely pursue with ombudsman. All these problems began when Newday came along. Keep well away... don;t say you weren't warned. Reviewed on: 18th July 2023

Shocking!

Randomly blocks card but doesn’t inform why. Call centre a nightmare. I will be cancelling my card. Had old card for 15 years without issue. Don’t bother. A total shambles JL- not the service you expect Reviewed on: 17th July 2023

Great for the JL vouchers, nothing else

Tried to increase the imposed credit limit to pay for a holiday, computer said no. Online chat with an agent, computer said no but call to speak with an agent who they were sure would help. Had 3 goes but couldn't get beyond the automated voice responses. Gave up. Reviewed on: 12th July 2023

Ditch Newday Amazon did

Never had a credit card like it odd amounts added to balance not on statement. This month shows I haven't paid requested £5 well that's correct as I paid £289.11 early July!!! Balance us near as it should be but its a few £ up on last night?? Can't get answer on phone. Is there a Chat with a person online if so where. When probably sorted out will be closing which us a shame as I have had J/L store card since 1976/7 Reviewed on: 9th July 2023

my refund is missing

I returned an item to john lewis, under guarantee, on 4th july 2023 I was told that my refund had been sent to the old defunct JL card run by hsbc. JL customer service were awful, no help at all. HSBC does not provide any easy way to contact them either. I have raised a complaint and next step will be the financial ombudsman, Believe me, I will follow this up until my money is returned to me Reviewed on: 6th July 2023

new day are awful - avoid

with original hsbc card had a reasonable credit limit, new day reduced by almost a third when we queried told it was because they were a small bank !!!! we pay our bill in full every month and have an almost perfect credit rating. John Lewis need to get thus sorted so we can continue to spend at waitrose and john ewis Reviewed on: 3rd July 2023

Where is my refund ?

I had a nil balance at the changeover from HSBC to Newday all straight forward opening new account, however I have since had a refund from Virgin Atlantic for £100 sent to the old account in March. JL advised there’s nothing they can do as the account is closed and to take it up with Virgin however Virgin insist the money was sent and had not been returned to them so to take it up with JL. Who say not their problem as they no longer deal with HSBC. Must be a lot of people out there who are in the same position. Someone is benefitting from all our refunds but who ? No one taking responsibility. Reviewed on: 18th June 2023

Why why why did you move to New day!!!

The HSBC John Lewis Card was just not even comparable it was so much better Reviewed on: 16th June 2023

An unreliable credit card

Ever since the credit card has been managed by New Day, I have repeatedly had my transactions (in a store or online) declined, even when I have validated the transaction by logging into the app. I had raised a complaint with New Day but it was closed, saying that they followed the processes. I have zero confidence in using my card. Rubbish. Reviewed on: 16th June 2023

Great offer

The 0% offer was a lengthy period of time and I await my vouchers. The app is reasonably clear to use and many options to pay swiftly. I had 1 error of when a payment said it failed but it didn't. Otherwise, no issues. Reviewed on: 15th June 2023
