  • Moneybox Customer Service

    Anyone have experience with this and their in-app chat? Seems totally useless to me atm, and the Support phone number is only M-F too.

    Customer service via chat is ok but not the greatest. I opened the account early April and transferred the minimum 500 of old money in just to secure the account. transfer from Virgin to Moneybox took like 4-5 days so was rather quick.

  • Transferring 08 sort code Virgin ISA to Zopa.
    Isa transfer accepted by Virgin on day 6
    Transfer completed at 19:30 hrs on day 9
    Interest credited by Virgin up to and including day 8
    Not sure if I've lost a days interest yet, could be faster but smooth enough.

    How do you know when the transfer was accepted by Virgin?
     
    I requested a transfer for my 08 sort code Virgin ISA to Zopa on the 3rd May. Have heard zilch from either party so far.

    I messaged them to ask them if there was any progress and they replied within a couple of hours. Heard nothing apart from that. I've got my days mixed up. I requested on the 29'th April, transfer complete on 13'th May. You are 4 days after me if all goes the same.

    I opened one of these a couple of hours ago, and I've already encountered a couple of oddities with this, one quite perplexing.  My first name for official documents is obviously my given name, however, I always go by a family "pet" name, quite different from my given name.  I had to go on a live chat to query something, and they've picked up, somehow or other, on my pet name!  I haven't mentioned it anywhere during the application process and it's not on any documents I uploaded.  I'm worried now.

    The other issue is that I'm trying to arrange a transfer in from YBS, and they'll only permit sort code and account number, and the last time I used those (to somewhere else), the transfer in failed until I used the roll number instead.  Not very promising start, as I can't get any sense out of CS.
