Lack of app

Decent rate. The the lack of an app and the complexity to logging in makes the account very inconvenient to use. No idea why they have not addressed this by 2021!!

Easy to deal with, good rate

Signing up for the ISA was very easy and you can arrange a transfer from your current one on line, which makes it quick and very easy. I have used Virgin Money for other products and been very happy.

I have an ISA with Virgin for over a year. The bank doesn't offer an app to its ISA customers. To authenticate on their website you need to use your customer ID, password and a code sent to your mobiles. In the past year it happened me quite frequently to not being able to access the account for days as the access code is not sent to my mobile. This is totally unacceptable, in particular in this period of insecurity. As soon as this is over, I will switch to a more reliable provider.

I went on to their website and requested a call back at 12.00pm. They called exactly on time , dealing with my enquiry efficiently and effectively . sending out an application form , which was promptly received, and returned . I then got a call a couple of days later acknowledging my application . The interest rate is also very competitive .

Constant terms and conditions changes no one can understand or could ever keep up with. Answers that never actually answer the question you asked. Constant web-page maintenance, without any warnings, or any alternative telephone service, or any other way to get to your account if you need to access your money during these endless maintenance updates. Complaints are met with endless stock email responses from names less people, usually referring to topics you did not complain about because customer services didn't bother to read your complaint all the way through and made assumptions on what they thought you might be complaining about. Yes Virgin Money interest rates are good compared to many others, but they expect you to do all the work, because they are damn well not going to help you if they don't have too.
