Very good card, but cannot change my statement day.

Very good card, they gave me a CLI 2 months in of getting the card from £600 to £1,850. However, I'm disappointed to learn that i CANNOT change my statement date. I always have high utilisation on my card because i like using it, and it's basically my main card, because my statement date is the first of every month and i get PAID on the 13th, so as a reasonable person - i called up asking if i can, they said no. This makes me look desperate as i am now going through high utilisation, despite paying back like 90-95 percent of the balance every month. I was able to change my dates on all my other cards, but the lady at aqua said no. As i want to apply for a mortgage in the next year, and reporting high usage is bad for getting a mortgage. Unfortunately, i may close my card if i am unable to change my dates, and make JAJA my main card..

Nothing is clear.... I will repay the loan and will no longer use this company, a huge interest is charged for any transfer of money. Disgusting

Hi Natalja,

I am very sorry to read that you have not had the experience that you expected with us. I appreciate the time that you’ve taken to write the above. The interest rate on your card is given after full credit checks are performed, and it set to what we feel is appropriate at the time.

We do check accounts on a regular basis and if we feel a lower interest rate would be acceptable, we will let you know right away at the time. Unfortunately, we’re unable to decrease this by request and I apologise for any inconvenience. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with our Customer Service team.

Best,

Stephanie.
