Vanquis Credit Card Personal Review

5
I love that the Vanquis credit card is very user-friendly and provides convenient access to my account information. It’s simple to use, straightforward, intuitive and the customer service is absolute top notch. Also, this is a credit card that is accessible for people with poor credit history and want to boost their credit score. That was my primary purpose for going with Vanquis card. I wanted a card that I can use to improve my credit score as long as I pay back into it every month with minimal fees attached, and Vanquis ticks all the right boxes. Transactions are easy to read, clear and simple and also a handle option to connect your card with snoop to check your credit score. A handy feature, I’d say. Reviewed on: 3rd May 2024

The trauma of Fraud, Vanquis are my Hero

5
Vanquis helped me sort out my accounts after my Barclay dragged their heels and did not follow procedures following my Barclays account being hacked. Because of this my credit rating was trashed. Vanquis stepped in and helped deal with Barclays and also overnight restored my good credit rating I had worked years to improve.Vanquis are my Hero. That aside Vanquis are very helpful, reliable and helped me build to a good credit rating. I wouldn't recommend anyone else.David G Reviewed on: 3rd May 2024

Flexibility.

I like the additional security paying by credit card gives. It also gives me an option to pay when I am waiting for income and haven't got the immediate funds. Reviewed on: 3rd May 2024
