  • I assume you are referring to the Virgin Money free £55 case of wine, as mentioned in the MoneySaving email on 21/08/13.

    If so, I was just about to post something similar. I've received PIN and Credit Card letters, but there is no mention of the wine.

    I applied on 21/08/13 so I assume I got in there before the offer was pulled?

    An article on MoneySupermarket seems to suggest that there will be a follow up letter regarding the wine within 21days of the application.
  • Exactly the same as you mrbobsy. I need that wine!!!!!

    Only if you don't like wine. The wine bank scheme is a pretty good one paying 20% interest on each monthly payment. Their wine is priced quite high but with the wine interest brings it down to a more sensible price.

    I've been buying Virgin wines for a few years and been happy with the quality of the wine. After a while you will be contacted by somebody who calls themselves a wine adviser, stick with them and get them to place your orders and ask for free delivery (saves £7.99 an order or whatever the current delivery charge is).

    They take £XX out of your bank account and place it into a account that allows you to purchase wine from them.

    Hi, I received and email and have ordered by wine.. However there was no mention about the wine bank in the small print.

    Have I missed something?
