Vanquis helps you rebuild your credit

5
Vanquis has been very helpful in enabling me to build up my credit rating and have rewarded me by increasing my credit limit by 300%. This has enabled me to use it to buy larger purchases knowing I have the added protection which comes with paying by credit card. I would highly recommend this credit card company.

Was good to start with but I wasn’t aware I’d be getting charged £25 a month after the year so it’s taking me twice as long to pay back Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

I am totally disgusted with Vanquis as you send me texts that I can neither reply to or block. On top of that you charge me for them which I am going to make very public to all people I know it’s cost me over £20 so far and I am in the early stages of talking legal action. Stop sending me texts. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024

Well firstly, I am proud to say I am with Vanquis! They have helped me have access to to extra funds throughout the months. Even better yet doing this also helps me build my credit score at the same time. There was one situation I was near my limit, and i made a cash withdrawal. I had forgot there was a cash fee for this, so I was confused as to how I went into overdraft. But I spoke to a very helpful and polite member of the Vanquis team, they helped me understand better and assisted in telling me how this all works and when the monthly statements generate on my account, I I was informed to make sure I keep a certain amount in the account around the given time so I don’t have the same issues again. I really do appreciate all the service that you have offered me Vanquis! Reviewed on: 1st May 2024
