Review of the Virgin Money, Credit Cards:

STRAIGHTFORWARD

transferred balance to this account as it offered a better rate. No problems at all and any queries are answered very quickly Reviewed on: 24th December 2015

Absolutely appalling service

1
Absolutely disgraceful service Absolutely disgraceful service. They were late in opening my account and only actioned my application when I sent an email not to bother. They opened a complaint in May advising someone would contact me. No body did. Eventually got a letter saying a response to the complaint would be addressed within 6wks. After 6wks another letter saying apologies but will be another 4wks possibly. I submit a closure of account form. This is completed within 24hrs, but no communication to confirm this; I had to find out for myself. Absolutely appalling service from a credit card company, little or no response and delays after delays. I would recommend everyone avoid like the plague and hope that the FOS jump on this cowboy outfit. Reviewed on: 22nd July 2022

Worst credit card company I have ever had to deal with

1
Awful customer service and an app that is a waste of time . Trying to contact someone took 3 days and they were useless and gave wrong information. Avoid at all cots Reviewed on: 4th July 2022

Worse Experience

1
They have approved the card after doing all the searches on my credit history and reduced my credit score. Once I got the credit card with approved credit limit they simply freeze my card even I haven’t done a single transaction. When spoke to help centre (Joffrey from support centre)I found my account is under review even I haven’t made a single transaction and even not accessed my account yet. Very terrible experience. WORSE SERVICE I HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED Reviewed on: 4th July 2022

Terrible company

1
The reviews are true! Truly bad customer service. Avoid at all costs Reviewed on: 29th June 2022

Not worth the hassle

1
If you ever need to contact them be prepared it may take hours or days or even weeks to try and resolve any issues. Not even used the card yet and I am done with them. They are so unhelpful on the phone even though they are the ones that lost the money for the balance transfer! Go elsewhere. Reviewed on: 29th June 2022

Appalling Customer Service!

1
Like so many others, it took me days / weeks to eventually get through to somebody on the phone (due to the fact that I was unable to use online services). And when I did, the "customer service" (what a joke) agent was disinterested, rude, unhelpful and clearly had no idea what they were doing. I was constantly being told to "hang on a minute" and "wait a second" whilst they did something in the background and when I asked if they were able to actually help me they told me I was being rude and cut me off. Needless to say, I have closed my account with them, raised a formal complaint and will not be using them again. What a terrible company! Avoid! Reviewed on: 28th June 2022

Impossible to make contact

1
Having moved recently, I have mislaid account and logon information for a savings account and have not been able to find any remedy online that works. My only remedy seemed to be a phone call: forget it!! I have just had to hang up after a 30 minute wait. Reviewed on: 8th June 2022
