    Excellent card. Initial limit of £8200 despite not much credit history (although all good history I may add). I do regularly make large payments and then spend again and pay off again but after 6 months I asked if they would increase to 9k so I could transfer other balances at 0%. They gave m ...

    I have had an MBNA credit card for about six years. I have never missed a payment. About three months ago a payment was missed due to an error by MBNA and I incurred charges. When I queried this they agreed to refund the charges as it was not my fault. However, they then proceeded to hike my interes ...

    I missed a payment by one day, I was charged £20.00 late payment fee plus my interest rate went from 0% to 22%. When I spoke to customer service they were not very sympathetic with me missing a payment date despite me being a customer of 10 years.
    So its now time to leave MBNA and join a more ...

    I applied for MBNA platinum credit card and was rejected by them although my credit history is quite good and have never defaulted on a payment. They said we can't offer you a reward credit card but a normal credit card but you have to send a 100 pounds check and which will be credited to your accou ...

    This card is MBNA/HSBC Direct Merchants. I fought and argued to no avail. Now I have to wait and see if it hurts my credit at all. There are many places on the web that say keep your oldest cards and that canceling them will drop your score even though nothing was wrong with the account. I guess ...

    MBNA used to be an excellent credit card provider but sadly that is changing. I am in the process of closing all my accounts with them and moving to an ethical credit card company. Nobody in this world expects something for nothing but sadly it appears MBNA are no longer interested in customer servi ...

    I do not blame mbna in a way, because postal service we receive here is pathetic, I received my statement for another credit card which was posted in November received in January. Postal service should be answerable, why it took them so long to deliver a letter, over 2 moths delay. Pathetic service ...

    I had a MBNA Conran Credit card which promised cashback (see countless websites if you do a search on Google). The credit card was closed down all of a sudden and, to cut a long story short, I have missed out of receiving cashback on the card that I used for months. I have literally wasted hours try ...

    I don't have the problem that a lot of people on these forums have! I love my
    MBNA Premier Rewards Platinum Plus card. I have been with mbna a little over two years and despite my past credit issues they increased my limit from 500 to 3000. I have been 30 days late first time and MBNA never incr ...
