Good rewards

Love the fact that I get rewards for using my card Reviewed on: 28th May 2024

Excellent on clarity and reward

Like the reward and the very clear website and online account management. I have borrowed cash recently. This needed to show on my statement but did not appear quickly enough. However, easy to get the money! Reviewed on: 24th May 2024

Great benefits with John Lewis vouchers, with increased cash back on spend at John Lewis and Waitrose stores. Good app for managing card account, for security checks when making on line transactions and reviewing spend against credit limit Reviewed on: 24th May 2024

As an ex JL employee, I was confident that moving to the New Day card would be easy and didn’t anticipate any problems- how wrong I was…Constant issues with making payments on the app, the latest being adding a new payment card showing as a Mastercard when it’s a Visa card. That doesn’t give me confidence, I’m moving back to HSBC credit card. Reviewed on: 28th March 2024

It is alarming reading these reviews.

It is alarming reading these reviews. I joined basically for the vouchers. Must admit thought the joining instructions were hard to follow and I had to ring helpline for clarity which was surprising. Been a member about three months and the only problem I’ve found so far is that it can take a few days or more for transactions to show up in the app, especially credits when you return goods in person and it’s put back on your card in the shop. . Also when you pay the balance online it doesn’t show up for days and days. So you can’t see an accurate balance most of the time and it is stressful wondering if it will appear. I’ll give it a bit longer before I give up but this time lag is a bit worrying Reviewed on: 25th March 2024
