Fast delivery for replacement Credit Card
Hi All
I have recently had the need to replace a Credit Card, the fastest delivery the company can offer is 5-7 days by Royal Mail 2nd Class! Hence I'm looking for a Credit Card that can offer 2-3 days guaranteed replacement delivery.
Thank you

Don't think any could 'guarantee' that.

Do you have Apple Wallet or Google Wallet? No need for a physical card then.

Find a company that allows you to add it to Google Wallet or Apple Pay as soon as it is approved and the details become available in their app or website.

This. I had already used my Amazon Barclaycard a week before the physical card arrived.

Are you after a card company that will deliver a replacement card (if original lost/compromised/damaged) inside three days?
I've had a Platinum Amex Charge replaced in 2 days when I was overseas (but those things cost) and an ordinary Amex credit replacement (original lost in transit) in 3 days.
Any card company that delivers replacement cards by mail or ordinary parcel courier won't be able to guarantee delivery times. 5 to 7 working days seems a pretty standard timescale for most companies unless you are paying for one of the premium cards.

A better approach to this is to have two (or more) different credit cards. That way, you don't even need to wait 2-3 days for a fast delivery, as you always have a second card available instantly.

The two times I have needed my Amex replaced it’s been delivered next day (first time) and 2 working days (second time). Both occasions the new card was available to use in Apple wallet within 5 mins.
