[Closed] Reactivating a credit card

Way back I had a Virgin credit card. I never cancelled it, so assume its still out there. Got it to consolidate credit on a 0% deal which I paid off years ago.

I no longer have the card itself, or paper work. I never registered it online.

I can see my bank statements paying into it.

I'd now like to use it. Any advice / experiences?

Call Virgin Money and ask them to check your records and issue a new card.

Ring up and close account. Apply for new card which has an opening offer on it - some doing 22 months 0% on purchases at the moment.

What are you paying into it if it's paid off? Oh, are you talking about old statements?

Just ring Virginia, they should be able to find you from name, address, etc and then just follow their lost card procedure and send you a new one.
If you want to buy something big though do as B230 suggests and just get another new card with 0% on it
