Gave me a credit line of £4900, and then cancelled after an year citing that i haven't used the card. Rang them to explain that i was abroad, so couldn't use the card . But they closed the account themselves, and the lady on call was really really rude. Reviewed on: 14th April 2025

Very Unprofessional

Even after closing the account and clearing all balance (received the closing account letter as well)these smart thieves send me interest amount separately to pay with subheading it has accumulation interest. Reviewed on: 5th March 2025

Confusing & infuriating application process, nightmare.

Went through the application process for 0% balance transfer; total nightmare! Difficult to understand the questions regarding options concerning "minimum payment" versus "fixed" DD monthly payment which you select. No guidance. No explanation. I'm a bit of a numpty at this sort of thing and got incredibly confused. I just want a 0% interest CC where it's all worked out for me exactly how much I have to pay back per month to pay the amount back - plus the transfer fee - during the duration of the card. It shouldn't have been that hard for that information to be provided! And you can't ring MBNA to speak to a Person. Ooh no. That is not possible. Wish I'd never started this process.

I had a horrible experience with MBNA that has left me both frustrated and shocked. They sent me a completely incorrect bill, charging me rates that were not even close to what was agreed. When I contacted them to get an explanation, they could not provide any justification or calculation for these outrageous charges. The worst part? The customer representative boldly stated, "We can charge whatever we want." This level of arrogance and lack of accountability is absolutely unacceptable for any company, let alone a financial institution. I spent over two hours on the phone trying to get this resolved, only to be met with vague answers, dismissive attitudes, and no resolution whatsoever. Their customer service is disgusting, and it feels like they deliberately make the process frustrating to wear you out. They have no complaint manager as well to manage things. All she said throughout the call was that "I am right" I strongly recommend avoiding MBNA at all costs. Their practices feel deceptive and borderline criminal. Save yourself the headache and look for a more trustworthy company. Reviewed on: 12th December 2024

Scammers

Scam. Unbelievable such a dishonest company is allowed to exist in the UK. Reviewed on: 2nd October 2024

Scammers!Scammers!!! AVOID!!!!!

Scammers!!! AVOID!!!!! I am extremely disappointed with the misleading tactics of this company. I signed up for their credit card, which was advertised as offering 0% interest on purchases for 21 months. However, after just 60 days, I started being charged interest on my purchases. When I contacted customer service for clarification, they informed me that the 0% interest rate only applied to purchases made within the first 60 days. Any purchases made after that would be subject to interest, which was never clearly communicated to me. This is deceptive and feels like a bait-and-switch tactic. They are not transparent about their terms, and it’s very easy to get caught out by these hidden conditions. I would strongly advise avoiding this company and their credit products at all costs. Very disappointing experience! Reviewed on: 23rd September 2024

Terrible customer service.

Terrible customer service. I tried to dispute an unauthorized charge but they sided with the seller even after the product and service are taken back and seller promised a credit (have a proof) but never sent it. I showed it to MBNA but they couldn't care less. Reviewed on: 11th September 2024

Avoid at all costs

advertise 18 months interest free credit card but small print says that is only on purchases made in first 60 days. Have been hit with huge interest. These guys are criminal. Reviewed on: 10th September 2024
