in Credit cards
So I applied and got instant approved for a 0% BT virgin money card sunday 14th.

Within a day I had an account setup as I got a text mentioning a balance transfer was initiated and I needed to approve, and the text also shown last 4 digits of card so I also had a credit card number at that point.

Tesco credit card show my balance transfer as completed last thursday, so virgin money have acted pretty fast on that side of things.

But still no card :(

I got no urgency for the card, but now I have a balance I need to setup payments, and until I get the card I cannot do that.

    they told me could take 10 working days but said I dont need to make first payment until second month so no risk with a default.

    Give them until the post on Thursday them ring them up and put in a complaint if not received. .

    Cards are issued by a supply company who print and send them out on the credit card companies behalf. The instructions for your card may have failed to have been received by the issuing company.

    Or for all you know someone may have intercepted and nicked your card.

    card arrived today :)

    I like how virgin money actually display the expiry date of 0% offer in the online banking area. My other cards dont do that.
