I have been trying to resolve an issue with Virgin Money since the 25th November, and due to misinformation has now landed me in quite an awful situation, subsequently I'm now being penalised for their mistakes, which if the correct information was provided in the first instance the issue would have been resolved. First line customer services are inexperienced, have a lack of knowledge of most things it seems, poor phone etiquette and a general sense that they just don't care. I have spent so much time on hold from my initial calls, through to being COLD transferred on numerous occasions to the incorrect department, requiring me to reiterate the reason for my call. The mistake they caused will apparently take up to 8 weeks through their complaints team to resolve... which then puts me in a very precarious financial situation due to the circumstances I've been placed in, which being a mistake on their part, this should be looked at as a priority! Severely disappointed with the service offered from all accounts, and certainly will not be using their services again once this issue is finally resolved IF it get's resolved, because from my experience so far, I am not confident. I'd would urge anyone to seriously rethink their options before considering Virgin Money, any mistakes they make, you will almost certainly be penalised for!
