Cancel facilities without reason

1
I had this card for some time - paid on time every time and made sure I stick to the terms. Out of the blue, they tell me they are withdrawing their credit facility and I had no say in the matter. Absolute rubbish company and rubbish service. Reviewed on: 10th February 2022

Cunning procedures to make your credit look bad

1
Dont touch this company. I've been a customer for years. Always pay on time. Often over the minimum. I used about 20 percent of my limit. Which is good on your credit score. However because I used this card very rarely they reduced my credit. Which then was 98% of limit. There intention is to make other lender weary. And lower interest cards unavailable to you. Therefore they will at later date increase your limit so you are forced to use theirs again at high interest. Don't touch them! Find more reputable credit card. Reviewed on: 10th December 2021

Awful company

1
After paying more than the minimum each month for nearly two years, they cut my credit limit by £300 and then had the cheek to send me a text saying I was near my limit! Absolutely appalling Christina Reviewed on: 19th November 2021

Great

Great credit card company for boosting credit file, as long as you work it correctly. Reviewed on: 10th August 2021

Dodgy company

1
I opened an account with vanquis, from the start they were terrible, my pin card & credit card came together. So anyone could have stole my identity. Then they wouldn’t let me sign into my account & said they would contact me, never did. They then sent me a letter with someone else’s name on it, I opened without checking the name. I saw they had sent their account to a debt company. Then a week later I got the exact same letter, saying they had sent my account to debt company for exactly same amount. I never even activated the card, so had never used it. It has took my credit score down. Made a complaint & got a letter, saying they wouldn’t do anything about it. Very dodgy company.
