    Anyone know why the Vanquis card is styled so bland? No name on it, just a blue patterning, is it just styled to look very minimalist and understated?

    Older one had an Abucas on it because it was something to do with the company ( I think they were run by abacus or something )

    I think perhaps some people don't want to shout about the fact they've got a sub-prime card, saying that it never bothered me!
