Virgin Money’s Cash ISA and M Plus account get plenty of praise for good rates, easy online access, and helpful staff. Their credit cards also impress with great balance transfer deals and a user-friendly app. However, travel insurance claims and customer service are often described as frustratingly slow and unhelpful. Many also struggle with account access issues and poor communication.
