How long for a decison? - Virgin CC

My wife applied for a Virgin CC on-line (for stoozing). No immediate decision was given, this is common as there is a notice of correction on her file.

After 8 days she has heard nothing, is this common? Anyone got experience of Vigins time scales?

  • when I applied for a virgin cc online last month I got an immediate positive answer with an impressive credit limit set that I wasn't expecting, i supose all enquiries are different and looked at individually, it may be they are checking things. Why not call them and see if an answer is ready??

    Not really that bothered, not that impatient, just curious to know if they were a quick company or slow one. Thanks for the reply.

  • bethanyrayne, I've seen a fair few posts from you today, and all of the unpleasant. Are you have a bad day? or are you always such an obnoxious little troll?

    I would ring them - they may have some info they are waiting for - When I applied online with virgin I had not heard anything - I called them and they just wanted to check my previous address - they then said yes

    First thing I heard off them (acceptance) was a text and an email on the same day about 8 days after a referral.
    Best Regards,
