Staff are untrained or badly trained. My ISA lost money. The numbers simply dropped. I found out staff transfered my money out by mistake. I still don’t have it back. Waiting 18 weeks. Many hours of calls. Reviewed on: 19th November 2022

Already a customer. Opened fixed rate ISA on Sep 26. Still cannot transfer money as of Oct 16. No reply to phone or online chat. Will not be proceeding. Hopeless. Reviewed on: 16th October 2022

Awful

1
It’s taken 6 weeks to transfer money internally, to a new 1 year fixed cash ISA. Amongst other hold-ups they wanted proof of ID and address - I already have an account with them! My husband did and Identical transfer in no time at all without any fuss. Reviewed on: 9th October 2022

not the best rates

Like many banks slow to pass on rate increases Reviewed on: 16th August 2022

Patronising mollycoddlers

1
I do have the capability and intelligence to know if my card has been stolen or lost, your extra security measures are annoying and patronising. I entered a Virgin Bank to report my card wasn't t working (as a result of Virgin patronising security measures) my wallet was open as I informed bank staff of faulty card. I went to take bank card from wallet, staff member noticed a similar looking card within wallet, asking if it was my new bank card(yeah cause I'm too stupid to have know to use new card) I informed her it was my credit card. Yet she persisted asking if it was my new Virgin card. Even reaching into my wallet to try and get the card out.i told the patronising pushy Virgin Bank Staff member that I was not stupid and did know what is and is not my bank card. Horrid woman!

Cash ISA Issues

1
Already a customer of Virgin, I opened a new Cash ISA with them on Monday 30 May. Still unable to access the account on 2 June either online or by getting someone to answer the phone. Other banks manage this instantly. Virgin's systems seem to be a mess. Reviewed on: 2nd June 2022

Avoid Virgin if you want to open an ISA with them

1
I opened a cash Isa with Virgin money on 19th May which they state will take a few days to become operational. Contacted them on 23rd May via telephone as I still wasnt able to use the account & was informed that I would need to provide ID before I could use it & they usually request this by post. Advised I had not received anything by post whereupon staff member said he would e-mail me a link to provide ID. Info was subsequently uploaded on 23rd May but as of 26th May still unable to access account! Letter received today 26th requesting ID be uploaded...could this not have been requested by e-mail when opening account? One week from opening & still none the wiser! Actually think I will now look elsewhere to open. My advice is to avoid at all costs Reviewed on: 26th May 2022
