Review of the Vanquis, Credit card:

Good company, terrible app

3
They are a great company, great pay back amount, but their app doesn't make sense when it comes to paying the amount needed each month. Either more money is taken by them at a much later date than it says, or less is taken, but it's extremely rarely the amount it states or the date. It just gets very confusing trying to sort out payments Reviewed on: 23rd June 2017

Safe hands.

5
I actually don't like recommending people credit cards as they can end up with debt they may not be able to handle, but with this company I think people are in safe hands. Reviewed on: 13th June 2025

Easy to use app

4
Their easy-to-use app and text reminders for regular payments help me stay on top of my credit. Reviewed on: 12th June 2025

I got a credit card to improve my credit score.

2
I got a credit card to improve my credit score. Then Covid hit, which unfortunately meant I maxed out my card as this was my only access to money. I’m still paying it off, the interest was insane for the amount I borrowed and there was no break. Then Covid hit customer service was a nightmare, I feel like they hire sales people rather than customer service. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2025

Do not value my custom - closing my account

2
I obtained a credit card from Vanquis nearly 4 years ago with a £600 credit limit, despite making payments back every month and paying much more than minimum payment, using the card regularly, I have never received anything more from them. I even called them and asked why they have never offered me a credit increase, they could see I never missed a payment, they still said they are not going to offer me anything more than the £600. This does not make sense to me as I have a good credit history, payments never missed and other lenders offer increases, so why not Vanquis, I felt like my custom to them doesn’t mean very much and I have decided to close my account with them. I do not feel valued by them, Reviewed on: 22nd April 2025
