Vanquis minimum payment text message?

I switched about 6-7 weeks ago so that my Vanquis card takes the full outstanding balance instead of the min payment. Now this month should be the first time it takes the full balance yet I had a text the other day and it stated a min payment of £xx was due by the payment date.

Is this the standard text message even if you have it set up to take the full payment?

    Yes it is a courtesy text to tell you that your payment is due, you are only obliged to make the minimum payment which is why it states that in the text. If you have set up for them to take the full outstanding balance then I would imagine that is what they will do, so you don't need to worry about it. It's just a standard txt everyone gets.

    if in doubt call them
    Don't put your trust into an Experian score - it is not a number any bank will ever use & it is generally a waste of money to purchase it. They are also selling you insurance you dont need.

    Thanks, I'll go on the assumption that it'll take full payment then.
