Review of the Virgin Money, Credit Cards:

Poor communication

1
I endured many phone calls and many errors and generally broken lines of communication and wrong information. Despite many letters phone calls and emails I was compensated for their errors but was left very scarred by the experience would never use them again. Reviewed on: 4th June 2024

Appalling company

1
Gave a wrong password by mistake on phone back in February. Virgin money have requested I post in ID and proof of address. I have done this twice. I also went in a Virgin money branch and they emailed it to them. They still say they haven't got it. Rude unhelpful staff. Had the phone put down a few times. They refuse to send statements but have taken large sums by direct debit. The only reason I care is that this account should be in credit due to a holiday refund. Despite compl...

Applied for a credit card at the beginning of May which I needed for a family holiday for the end of the month. Even called in after I got accepted to clarify my situation and was guaranteed that card should be with me by then, as cards take 7-10 days to arrive. Waited patiently for the card since the 4th May, and yesterday (the 20th), was the 10th working day as well the day the card was meant to arrive. Still nothing came through. Decided to call the support number to get an u... Reviewed on: 21st May 2024

Don't do it. Such a scam and the worst experience.

1
There is no process to gain access to your account once they "lock" you out. Not even the Customer Service Team has access. They are charging me fees that I cannot even view. This is an absolute scam, and I wish I had never opened an account with Virgin Money. I now have other accounts with AMEX and Monzo, the experience with them is incomparably better. Please don't put yourself through it. Reviewed on: 15th May 2024

Issues travelling with travel credit card

1
Very disappointing customer service and process in place for international travellers. I took out the travel credit card for the purpose of travel and currently in country with another month of travel pending. I have accidentally input my pin wrong and they have blocked the card. I am required to go to an ATM and use the pin services except that feature is not available for international cards in the country in Asia that I am in. I have explained this to over 6 customer service ... Reviewed on: 26th April 2024

Default notice by mistake!

1
I have 2 credit cards, one with Capital which I’ve had no issues with and the second with Virgin. When I initially got my card I made a purchase of £700 on an office desktop which froze my account so I rang Virgin and they resolved the issue an hour later being able to make the purchase, which was the first issue nothing major and easily sorted by their team. A month goes by and my app and online account is blocked which initially disrupted my payments I was told a couple of mon... Reviewed on: 18th March 2024
