When nobody else would give me credit, Vanquis did and I'm happy to say that I have never missed a payment in all my time with them. Their rates can be high, which is as you would expect given that they lend to 'riskier' customers, but I'm more than happy to pay those rates knowing that having a Vanquis card, using it responsibly and making my payments on time will help build up my credit rating after I squandered it in my youth. Vanquis gave me a chance when nobody else would and for that I am eternally grateful. Reviewed on: 2nd May 2024
