Financial negligence, broken promises, and zero Consumer Duty

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Internal Nov 2025 email confirms account in good standing.
  • - Referred to Moorcroft debt collection.
  • - 72-hour resolution promised; investigation ongoing.

I am appalled by the way Very (Shop Direct Finance) treats its customers. Despite providing irrefutable evidence, including their own internal email from November 2025 confirming my account is in good standing, they have wrongly referred me to a debt collection agency (Moorcroft).

Even after escalating this to the Executive Team, I was personally promised a resolution within 72 hours. Instead of fixing their administrative error, they broke that promise and told me to wait another 56 days while they 'investigate.' In the meantime, they are actively damaging my credit file and causing me severe physical distress and health issues due to the stress. This is a blatant breach of the FCA Consumer Duty. They ignore evidence, break promises, and show zero empathy for the harm they cause.

I have already escalated this to the Financial Ombudsman and the CEO. Avoid this company at all costs if you value your credit rating and your health.

Cons:
  • Communication and problem solving
  • Lack of customer care

Preferred solution: Compensation for distress and damaging my credit score

User's recommendation: Avoid this company if you value your credit rating and your health

You don't say! What is the point of your comment ?

Do me a favour and read the whole review before you start being too clever. Thanks.

There’s nothing to read. You went from November 2025, in good standing, to April 2026 in collections.

No in between or dates when things started to go south, no “I have proof of payments December through March”, no mention of a request by you asking for another good “account standing” letter to see if not what are their reasons. You go straight to April 2026.

You don’t state anything ;(payments, late payments) that is recent.

If there is nothing to read then please find someone else to annoy. I will explain to you only once even though I dont really want to.

I have a payment confirmation of every single payment I made, there isn't a single missed payment, I haven't received any letter saying that my account is in arrears (because it isn't), not a letter of them passing my account to Moorcroft, no communication from their side. I was making payments on time so I didnt have any reason to worry about my account. Only last week when I tried to order something and my order was cancelled I found out after I called them that my account is with Moorcroft and not Very anymore. When I asked for a reason I was told that they cannot provide me with any information.

It was a shock for me.

I still dont know what is happening because instead of theirs promise that they will sort things out within 72 hours, they suddenly turned around and said that they will reply within 56 days. Hope this will clear out your worries.

Fantastic! Your second comment explains in DETAIL what should have been in your original post.

I’m NOT worried but wondered what the correlation was with no explanation, yet claims of breach of duty being made. Instead of getting defensive, take it as lesson learned that the company’s rep that would have read your post would have had the same questions.

Still have not received package and when I track it it doesn't shower we're it is,I am very mad!I haven't been able to get ahold of anyone!

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Charged for a package I never received.
  • - No callbacks or tracking; I want contact and a refund or replacement.

What happened was I never received my package. You didn't have a problem taking money out of my account for it, but I still haven't received it.

No, call backs no nothing. When I try to track a it does not show where it is so someone from his company needs to contact me and you give me my money back or send me my product.

If not, I'm gonna write bad reviews.All the time! Be careful Cause they can't even get you your packages.

Someone at very, who I was on to for nearly an hour! should have been able to confirm I was eligible, find the text they sent, and give me the code I needed to proceed.

Time is running out to use it, so I could lose a £50 discount!

  • - Asked to amend the direct debit; advised no, and bank details not provided.
  • - Tried to locate bank details online; training issue noted.

I asked if the dd could be amended.was advised no. Also requested bank details so a bacs payment could be made.

We don't have bank details was the answer given. Tried to tell operator had found bank details online while waiting. Said would pass me to someone else. Advised no.

Training issue with your operator. 20 minutes wasted with your so called service operator

User's recommendation: Make sure that the direct debit setup is correct as unable to be amended.
