Vanquis Credit card reviews (561)

Over priced credit -,Poor App

1
Took to try and rebuild Credit Score. IOS App doesn't work. Website infuriatingly refreshes when you are trying to login. Kept trying to take full balance from direct debit, and only communication is by phone. Reviewed on: 2nd May 2017

Brilliant

They are so easy to deal with - quick acceptance, the card is easy to manage and when I did have an issue they understood and helped me solve it there and then. Reviewed on: 1st May 2017

Okay as a last resort

The company lend to people with a less than average credit rating, I would only (and have ) use them if I couldn't find a better interest rate. They are fine as long as you keep up your payments but I did find them aggressive in some of their dealings. Reviewed on: 30th April 2017

Very high interest rates

1
I picked this card a while back (I no longer have it) to help rebuild my credit. As a student the urge to use it to spend was very high. As I kept up with my payments they increased my limit and I used it. They don't allow you to make extra payments it's minimum or all of the balance needless to say I had to Take a loan to pay it off, as over three years I'd literally paid enough in to pay the Balance off however it all went on interest and the balance never came down. Be very cautious Reviewed on: 15th January 2017

If you use Vanquis, great way to build up your credit rating, just pay it in full every month, don't do minimum. Reviewed on: 15th December 2016
