Terrible service, no app, online payment is so difficult to access.

1
They have no app, which is ridiculous and basically unheard of. Because of this and the draconian security needed to sign onto their web portal, and admittedly moving house, being in the middle of renovations and living out of boxes, I was a day late with a payment and they removed my interest free offer. I called as soon as I realised, waiting for nearly half an hour to speak to someone. The customer service then made me wait a week for a call back, offering a conversation, but in the end just said they couldn't help again. They also called in the middle of my weekend. Knowing I'd be lucky to get another call back I regretfully took the call. The woman said she had no authority to do anything. Not sure why I waited for the call. Steer clear of this terrible service! Not worth it. Reviewed on: 15th August 2018

Awful product and yet worse customer service

1
I signed up for the new virgin Atlantic air miles card which replaces my previous mbna virgin Atlantic card. The approvals process took 4 weeks, the card should have taken 7-10 days from approval to arrive. It arrived on day 12 at which point I had already ordered a replacement card, delaying things by a further week. When the cards finally turned up they were blank, ie no 16 digit number, no name and no start or expiry dates. A replacement was ordered and took another week to arrive. Virgin money gave me incorrect international payment details on 3 occasions causing 4 missing payments and a hugely embossing conversation with my customers causing a loss of business. Due to a low spending limit of 5k it takes 4 transactions to make an 18k payment and it takes 5 working days to clear the balance and reset available spending allowance. Two emails of complaint have gone unanswered and it’s three weeks since they were made. An automated email was received to prove that the emails did find their way into the correct mailbox. Over the phone staff contradict each other, are not trained adequately and do not deliver on promises to call back. It feels like the company were established yesterday and are still going through training, Unfortunately if I want to keep collecting air miles with virgin Atlantic I have no option than to tolerate this ameateurish service. Avoid like the plague if possible !! Reviewed on: 14th August 2018

Credit card interest free period removed

1
I was a day late paying a minimum payment on my credit card due to error. I have had my credit card a while now never been late or missed any payments prior to this I contacted virgin money to make them aware of the error and despite this and explaining my situation they have refused to put my interest free period back on surely they should give loyal customers 1 chance for human error Reviewed on: 8th August 2018

Virgin Money Pre-Paid Mastercard

3
I found the pre-paid card was a great way to help the offspring when they were travelling abroad. The scheme allowed for a second named card to be added on the same account. Website management page gave useful information on where the money was going. I thought it was a good way to manage travel money for them without much risk. Overall no more expensive than Western Union etc. Reviewed on: 7th June 2018
