Review of the Virgin Money, Credit cards:

Please don’t use This card

My card got hacked so I cancelled the card. Asked for a new card to be sent out . Card was sent to the wrong address, when I contacted them to ask where my card was they wouldn’t tell me the address it was sent to. They just said it wasn’t sent to the address I asked. I Tried the same process again giving them my address 3 times making sure they had the correct address. Again the same thing happened, I’ve never had an issue receiving mail at this Address, it’s now been one month no card. Tried several times to resolve the problem and the consultants were of no help whatsoever. This card has a few good things going for it in the rewards program but thats about it. This is the first review I’ve ever wrote custom service is the worst, once your card is locked from being hack you cannot access to see any transactions. I wanted to cancel my card and pay out the balance but couldn’t access my profile to double check the transactions. End of the day worst experience cannot recommend this card whatsoever Reviewed on: 10th February 2025

App is pants, separate logins online and app

Having separate logins for website and app was weird, thankfully they have removed their website - however it appears some of the functionality has not been added to the app (e.g. updating address) from the website. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Atrocious - I just don't have words

Someone at Virgin Money decided to turn the credit card management website off which is how I have always managed my card. (whoever made this decision should be removed from their position for incompetence - whoever heard of a bank in the 21st Century without online banking/card management via a website?). I rang to see how I could get access and to ask for my card details as I can't find the card (no card - no app access). They can't be provided over the phone and it will be 7-10 days for a new card. I asked the question 'how do I manage my account if I don't have a smart phone?' I was told you have to ring which means sitting on hold for ages - there is no other option. I was asked to go through extended security to order a new card - part of the security questions involved answering questions specific to the account which I don't have access to so I failed security and have been told I can't order a new card! I was transferred to a different department, (had to sit on hold for 15-20 minutes to try and go through security again), which I failed again because I was asked questions specific to the account (again). The account is now locked and I can't access it without sending (via Royal Mail - there isn't even an email option)photographic ID to ID myself (I've allowed my passport to expire as I don't see the point in renewing at the minute due to Covid), the options for ID are limited and strangely I don't have a firearms certificate. So its now effectively impossible for me to access my account. I asked if I could close the account and was told 'no - account is locked', if you don't have the photographic ID it will have to go through a complaints procedure that takes up to 8 weeks (even then there is no guarantee the account can be accessed) I've never heard of anything quite so ridiculous...... I also requested all of my information that Virgin Money holds on me under the data protection act (a subject access request) and the request was denied on the grounds that the account is locked - they said I can't verify who I am (my understanding is they are not allowed to do this). I pointed out the account lock is irrelevant, I'm asking for the information to be sent to my home address which is registered against my account. Reviewed on: 1st February 2021

Great credit card

Great 0% interest credit card, good app and easy repayment plans Reviewed on: 18th January 2021

Just Awful

My experience with Virgin Money has been nothing but extremely bad. I have a Virgin Atlantic Credit Card which had a reasonable amount of money refunded to it from various companies. I tried many many times to contact Virgin Money in order to have MY money refunded to my bank account, but each time I tried to contact them I was fobbed off in fact the last time I telephoned them a lady answered the phone a gave me a number of reasons why she COULD NOT speak to me, after I complained (wasting more time ) she agreed to speak to me....she then told me I failed the security questions....I asked to speak to someone else and was told I had to telephone back.. I was furious that I had to hang up and telephone Virgin AGAIN only to get the same lady.....who then transfered me to someone else AMAZING. I will cancel my Virgin Credit card and I would urge anyone who is thinking about a Virgin Credit Card is to go somewhere else or you could regret it. I only took out a Virgin Credit Card to collect Virgin Atlantic points who are also awful ( cancelled flights with no refund for 4 months when British Airways refunded in 7 days ) I have since taken out a BA credit card which is much much better.
