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

Misleading and expensive (read the small print)

1
After booking a foreign holiday I then looked for a credit card which would not charge transactions fees. Virgin Credit Cards state that there will be no transaction fee for 6 months. I returned from holiday only to find that I had been charged 2.5% on every transactions. When I rang to complain they told me I could not have a refund because it was written in the SMALL PRINT or as they said the "Terms an Conditions" that this doesn't include using it abroad. I've told them to cancel my account as I will be cutting up my card. Reviewed on: 5th June 2022
