Virgin Money Current Account

Last business day in month

I don't see that particular issue with my accounts, everything is nicely sorted in descending sequence. But I am generally not too impressed with the search - it can't touch the Lloyds search, for example. Like you, I am glad I am using VM for savings only - and even more glad they still pay 2%. So I will stop moaning now and say it's an all round brilliant account for my needs

I think it's pretty logical, it's a last working day of the month except August. No, I'm wrong, August is also logical as 31st was a bank holiday.

That won't explain the sequence in which the payments are shown. May the sequence is determined by [different] interest amounts?

If you search Gross Interest, does it list in chronological order?

No, not the interest amounts although that would be a curious choice for a default sort sequence.

Yep, definitely in chrono order, descending

I should have said that the initial issue I reported was on my iPad. I have now checked on my phone and that is in chronological order.

I then tried on my laptop on Google Chrome and the default three months if fine but if I choose 12 months it reverts to same illogical sequence.

Bizarrely, if I click on the arrow at the top of the date column, it still shows the same illogical sequence, ascending or descending.

It is not a problem but just another example of Virgin Money IT anomalies.

That's it! I can see the same weird, random sequence on my laptop, in Chrome or Edge, and the sort button does nothing to unscramble it. iPhone and iPad are showing chrono order.

Got my virgin wines code today. This was my second Virgin account. I missed the switch deadline on my first account so I thought I'd try again. I asked customer service if I could get the wines on this second account as I missed the first and they said no. But clearly they were wrong.

Also I did not switch any direct debits from my donor account. I just set up the virgin account on 2 paypal  accounts and transferred a few quid to each. These obviously counted as direct debits and clearly they don't need to come from the account you switch.

Worth trying a second time!!!
