Excellent card and no issues ever using the card Reviewed on: 2nd May 2024

Great card

5
It is easy to manage my Vanquis card account on the app. It is Visa and accepted in most places. It was simple to set up a direct debit to make the monthly payments and making extra ones by bank debit card is also straightforward. On the three occasions that I have needed to speak to Customer Service I was connected to an advisor within minutes and the help was excellent. My credit limit is sensible and I am very happy with my card. Reviewed on: 2nd May 2024

Good advice and reasonable interest rates

They seem genuinely interested in helping me manage my account to my benefit rather than increasing their own profit. They give good advice, and have reasonable interest rates. First credit card company I've ever come across that does not try to exploit their customers. Reviewed on: 2nd May 2024
