Did Ocean Credit Card come from Citi or Virgin?

Hi all,

Looking at my PPI claims before it's too late.

I had both a Citi and a Virgin credit card about two years ago. If memory serves me right one of these were "bought" by another company and I think it was Ocean.

Does anyone know if this is correct?

Many thanks!

    Citing was bought by NewDay around 8 years ago.

    Virgin was taken in-house by Virgin around 4 years ago.

    You won't have had PPI on such recent finance. Or is that a typo?


    Banks stopped offering PPI on loans and credit cards around ten years ago, so it doesn't matter if there was a takeover and any further research on your part is simply a waste of time...
