Great, Provided you never need to get your money out

So far a 5 week wait and have still not recieved our money (Sell instruction completed on 23rd April losing the ISA status of the investment). VM claim they can not identify us after moving home. They have so far sent a compensation cheque to our new address and have paid dividends into our bank account whilst continuing to use our new address for letters. Latest trick was to claim they could not accept a certified copy of a bank statement - the banks stamp clearly gives the branch and phone number signed by the cashier. June 8th - No further progress. Our bank can not understand why VM would not accept their certified copy of a bank statement. They advise staff not to use full names for their own safety. Ombudsman advisor indicated they would like to recieve this as a formal complaint to investigate but to try and get the money first to avoid a longer delay. June 17th: Still waiting for funds that were due on 23rd April.. Cheque finally arrived 29th June..be warned. March 2019 - Staying true to form Virgin are now giving my new provider the run around. I had the audacity to arrange a tranfer of my own funds to a new provider as I stated I would after the previous saga. One month in and still waiting. Reviewed on: 3rd June 2018

Stocks and shares for the risk averse

I was worried about investing on my own, so I decided to go carefully with Virgin with their S&S ISA. So far its performed very well. I pay a small amount in each month, and already, 3 years in, its worth significantly more than i invested, and way better performing than any savings account would have been at this point!

Applying for Virgin Money stocks and shares ISA was such an easy process compared to other banks that we have experienced in the past. The funds were explained extremely well on their website which gave me a better understanding of which areas to invest in. After I had completed my application, Virgin Money wrote to me very quickly to confirm and complete the application. I would highly recommend Virgin Money, they were fast, professional and very helpful! Reviewed on: 31st December 2017

This ISA is great for long-term savers who don't want easy access to their money. Reviewed on: 17th November 2017

A good reliable bank that's open and honest, not bad attributes for anyone or any company, a pleasure to do business with.
