Review of the Virgin Money, Credit Cards:

Brand is everything....

5
When I first jumped on the 'Virgin Money' band wagon more than 2 years ago, I was trepidatious... Was this just another example of a very successful well known brand launching into unnecessary territory, merely to make a profit? I couldn't have been more wrong, Virgin Money offers customer service like no other high street bank or building society - never have I ever left Branch or finished a telephone banking conversation without knowing that my feelings matter. For example, I was 19 when I applied for my first credit card, I was very green (unashamedly, I still am), I had no idea about 'minimums', 'balance transfers', 'limits' or any of the other jargon that comes with a credit service - but I know that when I get confused, if I ever find myself confused - I ring the number on the back of my card, and within 5 minutes my question is answered and there's a smile on my face - Some people may say that telephone banking and call centres are cold and impersonal - but somehow, Virgin money have mastered this and leave me ending the call with a smile on my face. Do they offer the biggest line of products on the market? No, but what they do offer is quality and a genuine care for the customer - Bravo VM, you really know how to keep this 21 year old happy. :) Reviewed on: 23rd January 2017

Disgusted with fees

1
Purchased a product from an overseas seller and while I understand there are international transaction fees I wasn't expecting $130 for a computer to change one currency to another! It's not like they are paying someone a wage to do it. It's a computer to another computer. My nab debit card is international fee free so it really makes you wonder how a company like virgin can rip people off and yet nab bank can absorb the fee. Both cards are no annual fee so I don't understand. But I will be closing the account and I will NEVER recommend them to anyone. Stay away from them. Reviewed on: 11th March 2025

Love the balance transfer card

I got the balance transfer credit card and it's been a lifesaver, very generous with their 0% transfer offers Reviewed on: 6th March 2025

Great, easy to use app. Clear information. Pretty bit of plastic :) Reviewed on: 12th February 2025

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

Virgin Money Credit Card

Clear guidance and easy to use app. Very good terms and good transfer rates and 0% interest period. I would definitely use Virgin Money again. Helpful staff when I used the helpline and I didn’t have to wait in a queue for ages either! Reviewed on: 27th January 2025

If you have a credit card and an an app but are locked out of your account they are not open 24/7 to unlock your app, not even on a Sunday. If u are in a tight spot rubbish, I was absolutely 100% sure I had used the right password - my wedding anniversary been married 26 years and now locked out went online to try and log in there and not 100% sure of password and now locked out - chose a company with 24/7 customer service please, looking to switch , was messed around on phone told incorrect information ie was open 24/7 so wasted a lot of time !

International transaction fee?

1
International transaction fee? $170? Wow! No fine line when this card would charge you international transaction fee. The charged me for $145 annual fee - used this card for less than a month and happily cancelled it. Will never ever use Virgin Money again! Highly not recommended!!!! Reviewed on: 15th November 2024
