New application set up - 5 star, once you are a customer - 0 stars

1
I recently set up an account. I received my pin number and online activation details in the post but no card. I called them today and after a 15 minute wait (listening to a dial tone and no actual music), I get through to be told I need to speak to the fraud team who I have to call. Another call placed and I get put on hold again - at this stage I have been calling/on hold/speaking to someone for 45 minutes. I get told there is no issue. But they go to order me another card and wait - there is a problem, but I have to call New Business who are available on weekdays. Why has no one contacted me if there is an issue with my account? Why can't I be transferred rather than call and get stuck in lengthy waiting times and why are your departments not able to read the same notes as each other. As a new customer - this is shocking service. Reviewed on: 12th October 2019

Balance Transfer

5
Initial application process to acceptance was very slick, however it was a bit old fashioned to wait for a paper copy of a code to let you into their app. Other than that, little effort on my part to complete the transfer apart from postal delays. Reviewed on: 30th September 2019

Great communication and transparency

Always know my rates and details of interest free periods ending. Very welcoming on calls and goes extra mile to help you understand any fees. Reviewed on: 1st September 2019

BE AWARE mbna credit card is no longer owned by bank of america

1
I have been mbna credit card customer for many years and it has always been fantastic. Customer service was actually there to serve customers. It has now been taken over by Lloyds group recently and since then service is ruined. Customer service attitude is now changed to “I don’t care about you Mr customer”. Unfortunately that American banking touch is gone and I will never recommend mbna LLOYDS credit card to anyone ever. They should change nAme instead of deceiving clients.

Reliable and practicle

I find that they don't over increase credit limits to lure customers into over using their cards. Its always been very easy to use and to make payments. Very competitive . Reviewed on: 9th June 2019

Avoid at all costs

Absolute nightmare of a company paid online payment accepted then receive email stating hadn't been paid. This happened twice incurring charges of 149 pounds eventually cleared my balance just to get away from them Reviewed on: 17th April 2019

Efficient

Their administration is spot-on every time. Always shows the exact amount to be paid and by when. Cannot fault them. Reviewed on: 16th April 2019
