I started with a low limit card

I started with a low limit card and over time I discussed with vanquis about a higher limit after a easy relaxed chat with the team I got a higher limit. If I ever get any issues they happy to help even if it's a late payment they're happy to understand your issues. Would definitely recommend vanquis. Reviewed on: 23rd April 2025

This is a brilliant credit card for beginners!

This is a brilliant credit card for beginners! The more I have used the card, my credit limit (and credit score) has increased. The app makes repayments simple and quick. Vanquis' communications are very thorough. Reviewed on: 23rd April 2025

My experience with Vanquis.

I've had an outstanding experience with Vanquis, and I can't thank them enough for helping me build my credit score. I started with a low credit score and was struggling to improve it. With Vanquis's help, I've significantly raised my score over time. The guidance and resources they provided were incredibly valuable. They offered practical tips and consistently kept me informed about my progress. As a result, I achieved a significant milestone I became a homeowner! This dream felt out of reach before I started using Vanquis. I highly recommend Vanquis to anyone looking to build their credit. They are committed to helping their customers and have played a crucial role in my financial journey. Thank you, Vanquis, for making such a positive impact on my life! Reviewed on: 23rd April 2025

A nightmare.

A nightmare. Got told (over the phone) I was accepted for a credit limit of £1,200 across 2 accounts on 1 card. I did not understand this and as such spent 30min on the phone trying to clarify. I was basically told go away and if there’s any problems when you card arrives phone us back. Well there was a problem.. I had been mislead as my actual credit limit was only £600 (ON THE HIGHER INTEREST RATE / LESS BENEFICIAL CARD). So no. No I do not recommend to anybody. The business should be shut down and fined for its shady, loan shark business practices Reviewed on: 23rd April 2025
