Review of the Virgin Money, Credit Cards:

View on product page

Ruthless and taking advantage of people

Aparently I miss understood the small writing on one of the conditions on my card. I called in advance to make sure I could use for shopping, but as one of Virgin Money's customer service employees said "it's not their problem that I didn't understand it correctly". I applied to have the phone conversation being revised and 3 weeks after it should have been resolved still had not heard anything back. Of course when I called to enquire the result was that I have been perfectly informed and virgin will not do anything about it. If I want to get a transcript of the conversation I have to apply in writing, pay £10 and wait a minimum of 4 weeks (0n top of the 3 weeks this has already been going on for). Clearly making it easy for the customer... It is such a shame, I was over the moon about the 0% period I got on the card but I have ended up loosing £72 i can't afford to loose at the moment. At no time whatsoever virgin has tried to be understanding or fair. Very disappointed. PLEASE BEWARE OF THE SMALL WRITING IF OPTING FOR VIRGIN AND KEEP YOUR FINGERS CROSSED THAT NOTHING GOES WRONG AFTER, THEY WILL NOT DO ANYTHING TO HELP YOU. Reviewed on: 7th November 2017
