i recently wrote a 1 star review…

i recently wrote a 1 star review stating what a horrible customer service I had and their respose what to suggest i raise a complaint through their portal or wait in queue to do it over the phone. pretty pathetic response to simply throw the customer into a complicated and ultimate bad system as the way of dealing with issues - clear that they have not intention of addressing the issue and just have processes to fob the customer off and not deal with it. Shockingly bad- and given their high interest rates you would think they would want to take better of a customer that has consistently paid these higher rates over time. Was shocked but now I a am just pissed of due to their total lack of support. And the woman I spoke had a "don't really care attitude"

No credit limit increase for loyal and transactor customer

I am using past one year with same credit limit that have been offered initially. Even though I never paid single interest free and always making full payment on-time. However, other competitive credit card companies offered me a multiple times auto credit increase.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.

I’m sorry we’ve not been able to increase your credit limit. We take a number of factors into consideration when we look to increase a limit. Unfortunately, I’m unable to check why we’ve not been able to do this for you.

You can check on the app at any time to see if we can increase the limit for you. We will also reach out to you if we can increase the limit.

You could reach out to the Credit Reference Agencies to see if they can provide more information around this. In the meantime, you can check on the app at any time to see if we can increase the limit for you. We will also reach out to you if we can increase the limit.

Application and delivery really quick

Application and delivery really quick. Using the card for online payments has been easy but have had trouble trying to use chip and pin and contactless. Almost frightened to try again in case it declines as that is embarrassing. Overall good experience.
