    Having transferred two credit cards over to a Virgin Money card with a 0% interest period, I paid the first minimum payment before my due date and then about a week later paid more than twice the minimum payment I expected for the next statement to ensure I would not miss a payment. Despite this, Vi ...

    I 'closed' the account and destroyed the card over 18 months ago. After a couple of late payments, partly due to Virgin shifting due payment dates around, (I was paying by standing order an amount that should have been well over the minimum) whilst keeping statement dates the same, my monthly rate h ...

    After reading many reviews about them removing your promotional rate after a missed payment, I was in the unfortunate position of facing this myself when I did just that. I rang up and politely explained what had gone wrong and the girl on the phone agreed to put me back on 0% as I was a new custome ...

    I was given an initial allowance of £2000 on my Virgin Credit Card. Which is large in comparison to my other credit cards initial allowance. The egg card gave me £500.

    I made a transfer to Virgin Credit Card of approx 5k to which they were happy to do and almost bent over backwards transferring outstanding credit from another MBNA card so i could consolidate all my debt. They did not once mention that i might be in jeopardy of losing my 0% interest if i missed a p ...

I telephoned the retentions department and got it (relatively) down to 21%.On Saturday I got the now famous letter telling me that Virgin money had done some horizontal integration into the lo ...

    Virgin Credit Card put my apr up to 34.9% with minimal warning, when I asked why I was told that they choose "random" accounts to do this to, not on the basis of risk, isn't that nice to know!

    I was a Virgin Credit Card customer for many years and was 5 days late in paying £8.99; they stung me with £12.00 late fees and £14.55 interest - totally over-the-top. They are the worst financial organisation I've ever dealt with.
