I used this credit card when I was travelling with my career. Now retired I decided it was not needed. The middle of last year I cancelled the card (while incompetent they do acknowledge it was cancelled, along with the monthly £1 fees) and …

Credit card account: Great when it works, but they seem to enjoy blocking transactions and then blocking your card, and getting it unblocked is a nightmare. And there is no reason to block it; entering one digit wrong is easy to do. They …

Its all about communication. No I’m not the money chap! I’ve had a loan and credit card with this company and all communication has been fine. If your credit isn’t “great” but you need help, these guys are well worth contacting. At the time I wasn’t in a great place financially and they came to the rescue – thank you.

I have been charged interest on my credit card even though I have paid the balance of in full. I spoke to an agent names Lafisa and was clearly told as per terms and conditions interest will be charged. I explained to her I have paid in full but she did not want to listen.
