    I'm in Canada and we were lured to Capital One by Costco Canada, who is pushing this poor excuse for a customer-facing company. In short, I cannot believe the arrogance and customer-unfriendliness of this company! They gave us a measly $6000 limit for their "Platinum" card. We've tried asking several times for a credit limit increase and they refuse, each time coming up with a different flimsy excuse. We pay in full every month and occasionally need large purchases (a trip, replacing our furnace, etc.). I used to be able to get around the limit by making a big manual payment (like $8000) to get "extra" credit space for large purchases. But not now! They seemed to have closed this "loophole". I tried this trick to buy new appliances and I should've had enough for $9000 worth of products. But what do they do? They CAPPED my credit to $6000!! WTF?? Now my "balance" is only $2700, but my "available credit" is $0.

    Unbelievable. Their website is no good; the revamped site is no better. They don't have a secure messaging system, so I can't even contact them electronically. They expect you to phone them, wait on hold, only to get a rep who can do nothing for you!! We should all lobby Costco to get rid of these guys. I'm fed up and their cashback bribes are no longer enough to keep me with them.

    I had a perfectly operated - no problems checking account for over 15 years. I would deposit checks from another customer in the same branch and the amount of the check showed up as funds. I did this for several years. Capital One closed my account with no notice to me. When I went online I found my account closed and another in its place with a new name. Today I deposited a check from the same customer and the check was supposed to be processing. I no longer can access those funds the way I did before. My strong concern is that I was NEVER INFORMED OF THE CHANGES though I have been a customer of the bank for over 15 years! The Branch is in Laurel, Maryland, off Route 1.

    So far I found Capital One US has worst customer service and website. I have been customer of Capital Canada from 2006 and noticed the huge difference between both operations. I applied for the Capital One US secured credit card and submit my documents online and got the acknowledgment. But after few days I received a letter that I need to send these documents by mail or by fax. I searched the website to check an option for the application status but surprisingly there is no option available. I called the customer services and I was on phone and listening to the pre-recorded message "due to high call volume blah blah..." for half hour and finally drop the call. Finally I sent the fax that I don't need your card and I am better off with someone else who has value for the other people time. So if you are thinking of getting Capital One card keep in mind that customer service is worst.

    Been with this ** waste of time company. Can't raise limit. Won't budge a bit on small payments. Been with card 3 years. I ask for credit limit increase. They say no. Never been broke. Always paid card off in full 300 or plus increments still nothing. Do not sign up with these guys. Went all out tryna build some record with them but it seems I'm justs some 300$ chump to them while can't buy ** over 300 so use my sister's card more often than I can use mine and I always pay everything same month and more. Always put 350 to 400 on card so when my limit hits next day I have money carrying over but no, not good enough, not valuable enough client to raise limit in their books.

    The ** can I do with 300? My car payments alone are 900 a month. Yes made bad choices at young age but been over 10 plus years. I've corrected debts. Used card responsible. Can go bank, get 30k loan anytime I want but can't get these jokes to raise my limit just so I can buy spend and use it for bigger bills if I can only use this card to pay like 2 bills before going max and having to pay thru bank.

    I like to pay all bills via credit even though I have money in bank. Next day I transfer all what was used from card to bank not even like I need them to borrow money. Just use it to build name and credit. I can go bank dealer where get loan or car easy but can get the ** jokers to raise my petty 300 limit to some reasonable 1000 just for bills no and ** customer service. ** on a computer. "Let me get my manager." Can't do ** for themselves. ** this company. As soon as I get affairs in order canceling account. Did ** all for my credit.

    It seems 3 to 4 years constantly using card some every month around 600 plus tired of hitting limit then 5 days waiting for money to enter card from bank just to max out again. 2 stars for the fact they easy to acquire the card but after that 300 limit is sooo weak and lies about how they up your credit. In the real world a lot of times credit card couldn't even be found on record and even when it is, it's laughed at like a joke. "Oh just Capital One? You don't have another card?" This card is a joke on paper and in real life. ** them. Stay away from them.

    Where to begin, where to begin... The Capital One Quicksilver Credit Card has a very high APR. Let’s say you decide to pay $35.00 on your balance — you’d be looking at about 21 percent in interest (which is $6.00). So realistically, you’re only reducing the balance amount on the card by $29.00. The interest is applied unless you pay off the card completely. And then there’s their membership fee which is $39.00 a year. Now you’d think a membership fee sounds a bit more attractive, right? Like it would come with some perks or discounts. Yeah, no: their member fee is just an annual fee. There’s nothing for you when using this card.

    You’d (maybe) be able to build up $10.00 in cash rewards— if you’re lucky. But other than that; there’s not one redeeming quality about the Capital One Quicksilver card. Keep browsing for something better. There’s some companies who may actually reduce your interest charges or increase your credit line. Capital One did neither after I was injured in an accident and missed a couple of payments. Yes, their institution does not care about your well-being even if you offer to provide proof of your ailment(s)/inability to perform your normal daily routines. If you see an advertisement for it, run for the hills and don’t look back.

    A word of caution...I had a secured credit card with Capital One - I had sent them $1000. For years the experience was pretty good. They steadily increased my credit limit. Eventually I was able to get a lower interest card through my bank and closed the Capital One account. A couple of months later I remembered...they still had my thousand bucks! And they sure did nothing to remind me of that! I chased after them and they sent me a cheque. So...a word to the wise.

    Don't get this card. We wanted to build our credit, and THOUGHT this was a reputable company. They take money from our bank without permission, and not just for a payment, 5 times this month alone, small charges between 25 and 45 dollars a time. And since they weren't authorized payments, were overdrawn and caused the bank to charge us. When we called to find out what the 5 payments in a row were for, they were unapologetic and unhelpful. Not to mention the high fees they charge us per month for the privilege of this hassle.

    I am so angry, and believe me it takes a lot. I verified my ID as in Canada a lot of people do this thru post office. I verified my ID, got my letter saying I need do nothing else - card on the way. So a week later I call and they say no worries, then I call and they said my ID wasn’t good? PR? Come on, it went thru post office and I had to go to Toronto to get that, then customer service swaps no help, manager was so rude and I was so kind too. 3 hrs later they said, "Nothing can we do about it", and hung up? Isn’t that breach of a contract? TERRIBLE BUSINESS. I'M CALLING MY TRIANGLE MASTERCARD AND ASK THEM TO INCREASE MY CREDIT AND TELL THEM. They will have it on computer, I even have the card number's last 4 digits.

    STAY AWAY FROM THEM, THEY LIE AND LIE, also I wouldn’t have known only for me calling after waiting 3 weeks for card, any advice?

    I had a problem with a purchase. The company stated it was from the UK but was actually a Hong Kong company. They wouldn't exchange the shoes that were the wrong size. I complained to Cap 1 and they refunded my money... only to take it back 3 weeks later because the merchant said it sent the shoes and showed a receipt. I told Cap 1 that I had supporting documents that would prove they are liars and bad merchants. Cap 1 said they would send me an e-mail so I could provide documentation. 2 days later, no e-mail. I call. They say they can't get the e-mail through. I said, "So will you refund my money?" They say no. I said, "Well if you won't allow my evidence, and are just going to screw a long time cardholder, I'll just pay it off and cut it up." They replied... "Ok."

    Worst credit card company ever! First, I made a deposit and they took that money out twice, I called they said call my bank and it was their mistake. Called my bank. They said credit card company's fault, called Cap. One back. All of a sudden there’s nothing they can do. Never gave me anything back. Now I had a refund from a deposit I made and it posted yesterday. I made ONE purchase and had more than half of the deposit left over, I woke up this morning, the deposit is as if it never happened!

    They said because I spent it all which is BS because I screenshot everything! And my purchase was for $50 and my deposit was in the hundreds! I asked representative, "So why would you erase the deposit? It looks as if it never happened." She said, "I can’t verify what you say because I can’t receive emails for you to show me what you saw!"

    I have been a business card member for over twenty years. Today while on business in Chile I discovered my card had been shut down. I called to ask why and they said "because of multiple attacks on your present card we had to shut down," I have no attacks on this card. They said there was nothing they could do, so I asked if they could send the new card to Chile, they said yes but 14 business days to process before sending and another two weeks to get here. So something that normally is two to three business days is now almost over two weeks. I tried explaining to the guy this was a business trip but his only suggestions were to call a family member, smart guy! The lack of understanding and service was surprising. I would advise all business travelers to not use this card.

    After paying my card off and receiving a zero balance email, I was charged an interest charge. I called to ask how an interest charge was applied to a zero balance and was told that it takes two months of payments to be at zero with no interest charged because interest is a month behind.

I did not owe them any money and they took it anyways. I called and asked for them to expedite it and the manager said there was nothing they could do. I will have to wait to get the money back. This is called theft when anyone else does it. Mistakes are part of life, but they were unwilling to do ANYTHING extra to fix this mistake.

    I tried setting up a mobile payment on my Capital One app. At the time I was out of the country in Mexico. 3 separate times the payment came back as returned over the course of no more than 4 days. When I got back home to San Diego I called to take care of it - I was placed on hold for close to 45 minutes. I hung up because I had to go into a meeting. Called back in the very next day because when I checked my account both of the credit cards had been closed off due to the returned payments. I had NEVER missed a payment with them. I got absolutely no call or heads up that they were going to close my account. They closed both of my accounts even when the other one had no returned fees.

    Now they are saying neither account can be re-opened. Keep in mind I never had a late payment, called in to make it right, wasn't given any warning, and they come back with this. It's ridiculous. This is going to adversely affect my credit when their app was the reason I wasn't able to get my payment scheduled properly. I DO NOT recommend this company to anyone. Unfair, unjust, unworthy. Don't open a credit line with them. I will be reporting their practices to the BBB as well as sharing this information with my network on every social media platform I have.

    I'm now put on wait for over 1/2 hour to help resolve a very clear dispute. I had bought a Samsung phone and had returned it as it didn't work properly as it was meant to used in another country. The business took the phone back no problem. Meanwhile, weeks later I receive a letter from Capital One that they reversed the transaction as the vendor disputed what I said. I contacted the vendor and they said that was not the case and that they had received the phone back.

    Capital One refused to reverse the transaction meaning I was out $800.00 and the case was closed. I got them copies of the return from the vendor including the receipt and signature of the person who accepted the return. Capital One just said, "Sorry case closed" and the vendor says they did not get the money. This is a big company, the vendor, and I know they are not lying to me so who's got my money and Cap One won't confirm when they reversed the charge as to where that money went. Have literally spend millions in charges over the years with them and will cancel the card as their service has gotten terrible over the last few years.

    Don’t buy this card. I have had more payments bounce on this card just because they are unable to accommodate even a penny over the spending limit. My Chase card or Citibank or Bank of America card never does it. And I can usually talk to someone in Bank of America or Chase or Citibank and ask them to accommodate more expenses and they usually comply. Let’s say my limit is $15000 and my payment bounced due to me being at the limit. If I make a payment with my bank account, it takes 48 hrs to post and I have to wait 48 hrs to make the purchase. I am so pissed that I just closed my account with Capital One today. Look at all these reviews here! They mean something!!

    Yes, the original error was mine -- I mistakenly paid the bill on my current card but used an out-of-date credit card number held by my now deceased husband. Called two weeks later to ask why the payment had not posted. We figured out the error. They said, "Wait 7-10 days -- it'll post within that time." It didn't. Called again. Spent 4 hours working on the problem -- calling them, calling my bank to get info they needed. Then in 1 massive 2-hour phone call, during which I kept getting put on hold, got transferred to at least 4 different folks who each talked to some other person while I was on hold, conference called with one agent to my bank, the end result was “Wait 7-10 business days and the payment will post." Tried to use the card today. It was declined — payment past due. Yeah, duh.

    Having both of our chip Capital One credit card stolen in the past, hubby and I use the mobile alert system for any transactions over $5 (limit we set as previous $100 alert limit and $25 turned out didn't catch thieves). My hubby is the primary and I am the authorized user. We have been able to stop theft several times within seconds from mobile alerts since and made us feel secure. We both take pride in credit score over 800 so close monitoring is a must for us. It is horrible to have one main card and to have it stolen and wait for a card for days when you have daily things needing charging. We have been with Capital One for years and up until now would give them 5 stars.

    Last week hubby and I switched cell phone carriers (kept same numbers) - we noticed we weren't getting the alerts anymore this past week since the change of carrier. I looked up the website from my mobile device and saw a message "confirm if changed numbers or carrier as number not attached for alert". I confirmed hubby's mobile number is correct. I couldn't see my number but googled Capital One website for mobile devices don't always show all and to use PC for full site.

    Tonight we went online for full website and the "enhanced" website for the alert doesn't show where to put my mobile number. I called and spoke to a customer service rep and a technical department rep (neither rep said 2 mobile number ever allowed). I tried explaining for years we have had both our mobile phones get alerts for any transactions. By request, I was transferred to a supervisor and she said she can add back my mobile device at first, but then after brief hold was told by her their new "enhanced" website is only now allowing 1 mobile device.

    I am so disappointed and shocked in today's mobile world they are only allowing 1 mobile number per account - why would they limit alerts (they allow 2 emails… but only 1 mobile)? She was trying to say emails just as good - While I don't mind email alerts also. I want my mobile number as well as hubby's. As we have different hours of able to monitor "alerts" (He's at work, I can watch... While I'm at school, he can watch alerts). I am sure most people like me get lots of emails a day (I get over a hundred) and want for certain alerts we set up to get text to us as those will stand out as they should.

    The supervisor said I am not the first person that realized this "new enhancement" is more restrictive and she also felt this should be brought back. People won't know it's missing until they change carriers or theirs get dropped without notice. You would think a company would alert you if you will be removed from an alert instead of false security! I asked if she could mention this to complaint department and she said phone calls are recorded for issues but I would not be able to get a follow up on this issue or on my complaint. She said hopefully this will be brought back in early 2019 (not that it's in the making but she thought it would make sense).

    I asked if she means weeks as I would want to change cards if going to be awhile. She said, "Well maybe not until next quarter (end of April )???" I said, "You can't have something fixed or changed other than 4x a year in a quarter?" She said it takes a lot of time to change things (and that's if they are working on it and she doesn't know if they are). So she was hoping it would be brought back without it being brought up to anyone? She just said there is nothing she can do. Wow.

    I found Capital One online and submitted an application for a limit of $5000 to $7000. I intended on using it as an emergency travel card. After I applied through their webpage for the specified limit, it checked my credit (which is great) and processed my application and approved it. They then asked me to etransfer a $300 deposit for the card to be issued. I transferred the payment from my chequing account to their office directly (they provide the account number to you). I didn’t receive my card within the timeline they told me it would arrive. I called to inquire and discovered they only use one mail method and there was a strike so they couldn’t reissue a card with any other delivery method. So it was a very long time before it arrived.

    They also told me they mail the card and the pin separately for security reasons, and both arrived the same day. So regardless of transit wait times, when I got the card to activate it I discovered they only have me a limit of the $300 deposit. I called immediately to find out why when I applied for a card with a $5000-$7000 limit they gave me one for my deposit value. They could not give me an answer. They offered to cancel it (again) as a way to “resolve my issue”. I said “I’m now over a month of time lost and calling for answers and no one recognized the wrong card issued along the way after lengthy discussions about how I applied, when I applied and all the dollar values involved“. Again all they wanted to do for me was cancel the card.

    Recognizing this company is very disorganized and just repeats policies that only protect them not the client they had no way to provide me a card for the value I originally applied for even with my deposit. They tried to say it was likely because I have credit issues so they’d not approve the card value I applied for and rather would issue a card for deposit amount instead. I said “that doesn’t make any sense. They did a credit check and confirmed it was approved before I ever issued my deposit amount. Why at that time would they either not reject my application or at very least inform me of my credit status and provided me an option of a card with cash deposit value?” Again no answers or logical rationalization of what happened, just, “We can cancel your card for you.”

    So being frustrated I said, “Yes, let’s cancel this card because it serves no purpose at $300 and I have perfect credit so I have other options for another card to use for its original intention.” So then they said, “Well we’ve gone ahead and processed your request to cancel the card, now you have to call back in 10 days to request we issue your deposit back via cheque.” I’m like, "I provided payment through an etransfer why can’t you refund the same way?" “Sorry it’s our policy.” I said, “Well what happened if I don’t call back in 10 days.” They said, “We will send it back within two biweekly payment periods” (so in a month or longer time). I was frustrated by called back in 10 days. They then told me it had to be 10 business days.

    Then after the 10 business days they said, “Oh well there are holidays to consider here and the banks don’t do banking in these additional days so you have to call back on another date.” They basically took another 23 days to take my call to issue a deposit back. Then they informed me I had to wait another 10 business days for the processing of the cheque request for deposit and mailing time. And I could only call to confirm once I received an official letter in the mail confirming all these cancellations (keep in mind they are still using the mail system that’s on strike so I had an additional wait to get the letter).

    From start to finish, applying for a card that I never actually used or even activated to the point where they gave me a cheque back for my original deposit was 62 days. Over 2 months to cancel a card and return my deposit and never actually addressed any of the questions I asked as to why or how this could have happened. I had to call them at least 6 times to have it all processed and I was put on hold regularly so the average call took about an hour to two hours to try and get anything done.

    I highly recommend never using this company for anything as they stand up for each other but don’t actually have customer service that acknowledges they’ve done anything wrong or inconvenienced anyone. Just hide behind fine print to rationalize it all. The 1-800 number are people in the US and the transfer to a supervisor was in New Brunswick so how they handle call volumes is also beyond frustrating as well. I’m just thankful I didn’t get into business with them as I can only imagine what happens to people using their cards or if they ever had a problem with the cards. Best they can do is cancel them apparently. And I applied for another card with another company and received it for the $7000 value right away. So I feel like they are just a huge scam. Save your time and money and just go somewhere else.

    Me and my husband opened a Capital One Quicksilver account based on commercials from TV, 0 percent offers etc. However this turned into the worst experience we ever had with any credit card in our 20 years of owning all different credit cards from different banks! Our credit score is 791 and 780 which is considered excellent by both Equifax and TransUnion. Because we own two homes one in CT and one in FL the bank needed proof of address and started asking for documentation since October 5, 2018. We submitted everything they asked for, never had a single dispute or fraud on this account or any other account. We pay all of our accounts every month on time.

    THEY PUT A RESTRICTION IN THIS ACCOUNT FOR ABSOLUTELY NO REASON! Finally we paid off the card in full and closed it 3 months later!! This is all because their customer service would not be able to look at all the documentation that was sent in and make the necessary corrections! I would never recommend this bank/credit card to anyone! Very incompetent people and bad experience overall.

    Capital One Quick Silver MasterCard is a joke. I applied online and was asked to send in my driver license and SSN card a copy which I did.

Have you ever heard of such a thing. Then the account manager calls me and stated that the card is in a hold state since they cannot verify who I am and I need to reapply "Huh," are you crazy. I said to myself. This seems like a joke because none of my information changed.

    I'm thinking this is going to lower my credit score to reapply and I asked what happens to this account that you guys already created for me that you can't verify who I am. I was told that the account after so many days will be disabled, "Huh," what the heck is going on. This is ridiculous. Anyhow I reapplied and guess what "I got denied," isn't that something.

However, I was overcharged for a hotel by a hotel company in September. I called the company and they told me to contact my bank. I contacted Capital One right away and they started a dispute. One week later and the difference that the company overcharged me was back in my account. At first I disputed the whole charge but once they gave me the difference I was fine with it. This was on September 28th, I was happy with Capital One.

    Now, on December 20th (3 months later) they took the difference back out of my account and said they sided with the company and now I am out money I didn't think I was out right before Christmas. I called and they said they can't reverse this, they can't dispute it again, and that I was out of luck. I have never disputed a claim in my life and I have to be pretty upset to do it and now Capital One basically treated me like garbage. They just lost a customer that has been using them for credit cards forever over $300. Thanks for believing in big corporate money hungry companies over your customers, Capital One.

    I ask them to make it right and transfer funds to the other card without charging me the transfer fee. They told me they could not do that. I’m told it’s automatic. So I asked them to do the transfer and credit me the amount of the transfer fee. They said they could do that. When company makes a mistake they should correct it. This company doesn’t do that.

    I have been a personal banking customer for many years with a "dba" as I am a sole proprietor of a landscaping business, as this was the advice of my banking associate when I opened my account in Chester, MD on the Eastern Shore of MD. When I opened my account there were (2) locations of Capital One Bank within 20 minutes of me. It wasn't but a year of my opening my account these locations closed allowing me little or no access to a physical banking institution. The closest Capital One Bank location is now at least an hour away. It forced me to do my banking online, which I was not so pleased about, but continued to do my banking begrudgingly until this past Monday, December 10, 2018.

    It seems, without notice mind you, that Capital One changed my Essential Checking Account to a Total Control Checking Account. Why I don't ever get an answer when I call into Customer Service, which I have done several time, because the $3,980.16 in Mobile Deposit checks I entered earlier were being denied and I wanted to know why???

    Keep in mind, this is my checking account where make deposits and pay my bills. I have been told that because my business name is not on the check (because they're made out to my business and have been since day one) and they can no longer accept checks without my name on them. I'll need to open a Business Checking account at a branch location... an hour away. I operate a business and cannot just drop everything to set up a new account. I was asked... "just go back to your customers and ask them to write a new check in your name"...ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

    I own and operate a business, and have been operating this way for over 4+ years. I cannot, and will not, go back to my customers and ask them to write checks out to me personally... It's appalling that you'd ask me to do this, and it's unbusinesslike to ask me to ask my customers to do this. Meanwhile, my checking account is dwindling and I cannot make deposits until I open a new business account. I don't think I'll be opening a Business account with Capital One, but will be cancelling my personal account with them.

    I have two complaints: (1) Deceptive advertising (2) Capital One is refusing to let me know what my balance is and debiting from a checking account I do not authorize. 1. Capital One conducts periodic account reviews. November, 2018, is my twenty fourth month of on-time payments. As a result, Capital One increased my credit limit automatically; I did not ask for a limit increase. However, Capital One informed my card is restricted and it cannot be used until all of my authorized users mail a copy of their driver’s license and social security card. I currently don’t have any authorized users and believe this is cumbersome because I use to have 7 authorized users a few months ago (I requested to have my authorized users removed in August 2018).

    The representative said I still need to have my authorized users verify their identity because they want to make sure they consented because it affects their credit. The agent further said it’s mentioned in my card holders’ terms and condition. However, Capital One’s website promotes the use of authorized users and has an entire page dedicated to the promotion.

    Their websites states: "Together, you can maximize your card’s benefits. What is an authorized user? An authorized user is someone you add to your account without any additional application or credit check. They'll get a card with their name on it and share your line of credit. As the primary cardholder, you'll still be responsible for all charges and, if you have a rewards card, you'll earn on every dollar they spend. Ready to add someone to your account? It only takes about a minute: Tell us their name, phone number, Social Security number, and date of birth. Double check the info is correct. That’s it! We’ll send you a card for them to start using right away."

    Also, I read the totality of their online “terms and conditions”, “additional disclosures”, and Patriot Act Certification.” The word “authorized user” is not mentioned in all three online disclosures (press Ctrl+F to search by keyword). I believe this is deceptive advertising. Under the Federal Trade Commission Act:
    · Advertising must be truthful and non-deceptive;
    · Advertising must have evidence to back up their claims; and

    · Advertising cannot be unfair.

    According to the FTC’s Deception Policy Statement, an ad is deceptive if it contains a statement- or omits information - that:
    · Is likely to mislead consumers acting reasonably under the circumstances; and

    · Is “material”- that is, important to a consumer’s decision to buy or use the product.

    Capital One’s website is misleading because they omit information that is vital and relevant to authorized users. I was lead to believe adding authorized users only takes a minute and is easy as 1, 2, 3 as their website promises. And this was the case at first, until now, I need to have 7 of my previous authorized users photocopy and mail their driver’s license and social security card to a company they don't conduct business with and do not feel comfortable sending in copies of their personally identifying information in an era of the Equifax, Yahoo, and Anthem Blue Cross breaches and fraudulent activity conducted by Wells Fargo employees (opening accounts in customer’s names without their consent or knowledge.) If Capital One placed a disclosure on their website or on their online terms and conditions then this would be fair, however, this was never informed to me until after the fact.

    Second complaint:2. I called Capital One on innumerable occasions, and they are refusing to tell me my current balance. It is relevant to know my account balance in order to make a proper payment. Capital One is also refusing to confirm payments I recently made. I need to know what payments posted in order to know my new balance. I want to make my payment in full but I am not able to do so because they are refusing to let me know my balance. Also, a manager named Terrel, gave me an erroneous balance (on 12/7/2018). He told me my balance was $475 which is not possible. My balance was around $500 the month before, however, I made two payments for the month of November; first payment for $35 and second payment in the amount $100. I have not made any new purchases and do not have any recurring charges with any merchants.

    It is improper for a financial institution to refuse to let the consumer know their account balance. I have a right to know in order to make payment. I called Capital One on 12/8/2018. I informed the manager I became aware Capital One debited my Wells Fargo checking account on my due date (11/27/2018) for $35. However, I already made a payment for my November billing cycle for $135. My minimum due is $25. There's no reason to debit my checking account when I made two manual payments over the phone using my U.S. Bank account. I told the manager I no longer consent to any autonomic bill payments from my Wells Fargo account. The manager egregiously said he cannot do anything about that. This is clearly illegal. Please be advised, I had this account for two years and never had a late payment or missed payment. I am considering filing suit.

The first issue I had with them, was when I submitted my first payment. I submitted a full a payment to pay off the balance, since I was leaving for vacation. The day before traveling, I noticed that my credit card was "restricted." I called customer service, and after being transferred to numerous representatives, I come to find out that they restricted my card because they were having trouble "confirming" my payment. As I am on the phone with the representative, I sent copies of my bank statement showing the payment was deducted from my banking account. After going back and forth, they eventually released the restriction and I was able to use the credit card during my vacation.

    Today, I noticed again, that my card was restricted. I called customer service and they tell me, without notification, that my account was closed as of yesterday. Apparently, the scheduled payment was not successful. Come to find out, that the day the payment was supposed to be posted, was the same day my direct deposit submitted in my bank account, however, timing was the issue here. The payment was attempted before the funds were available. I noticed this a few days later when I received an email notification, and I immediately submitted a payment to pay off the balance on the credit card.

    I asked why I wasn't notified that they were closing out the account and they said they were sending a letter. I expressed that I would like my account reopened and they said there is nothing they can do, and that the account is closed permanently. This is unfortunate, and now I have this impacting my credit score negatively, when my goal was to rebuild my credit.

    I applied for a SaksFirst card and was approved on the spot. I took a week of looking around and finally made my first purchase of $424 on Christmas gifts and awaited my physical card before I was going to do any more shopping. I got my order from them and wanted to pay the order off of my card, so when I got the physical card I attempted to sign up for online access. I was given the message that my account was locked for security reasons and that I needed to call to have it unlocked. I called every day for a week and no one could explain to me what was going on. Finally after a week of calls an agent gave me the number to Capital One because she stated my account was under fraud investigation.

    I called Capital One thinking that I probably had to verify my identity in order to get this unlocked and sat on hold for over an hour. When I spoke to the rep she told me that it was in the fraud department and that it would be taken care of within 72 hours that if I did not have a call by then to call them back. Three days later I called Capital One back as no one had ever contacted me and spoke to another person in the security department who informed me that my account was closed for fraudulent reasons and that I would have to reapply if I wanted to have the card again. I explained that I had already made a $424 purchase and wanted to know how in the world I was going to pay for it if I was not allowed online access to pay the payment.

    I was then informed that because it was due to fraud that I would not be responsible for the balance and that they were canceling the service in contract with me so that there was no debt owed. I’ve validated that it was me who open the card. I have not even made one payment nor was it a payment even due for a month and now on my account history it shows I’ve never ordered from there before. I’ll be keeping a close eye out on my credit report to make sure all the stuff doesn’t come back to bite me in the butt. To add insult to injury when I did go back to reapply because I do want the card or did, I was denied and told it was because of security reasons.

    We opened an account 2 years ago for our Plumbing Company. Bought 3 vehicles and numerous tools totaling somewhere in the neighborhood of 100,000. So we can get points with GMAC. Huge mistake, they closed/restricted my account without warning. I have spent hours on the Phone and the reason they gave me was because one of my employees who was added as a signer is not a US Citizen. I asked them why this would come up and was told because his Last Name is ** and we need to send a copy of Social Security card and passport. After that was done they said we will get back to you in a few days. My other employees who were added at the same time did not have to supply this information. This is totally unacceptable and not right. I do not believe that it is my credit card company's job to police the validity of my employees. Please find another credit card company.

    Capital One is a horrible company to work with! I've paid off my car with them and had two (2) credit cards open with them that I paid off. They closed both of my credit cards without notification after the fact that I paid them. The first rep I spoke with said due to fraud. Then I was transferred to Jeff who then transferred me to Sheia. I was then advised the cards were closed due to the return of payment. I advised I had called in the day I was aware of the return because I had paid/Set up payment online. I enter the checking acct number wrong which caused the return of payment. I was not made aware if I paid my cards off in full they would close the accts even if made aware of a human error.

    Sheia advised I reapply for a credit card. I told her, "I just lost two cards with you, why would I reapply for one card vs getting my two back." She DID not have anything helpful or useful to say. Now I will have a negative impact on my credit due to two accts being closed and having to reapply for a credit card. Not to mention even though my car that was financed with capital one has been paid off a month now but still shows as an open acct. They are soo quick to close stuff when clearly this closer was done in human error but slow to close the acct that DID not have human error. I hate capital one and would not recommend anything with them.

    We have been a Capital One Spark Business card holder for 4 years and have never missed a payment. We have spent over $349,000.00 on the card over this time period. All of a sudden one day we received a letter in the mail that they have made a decision to cancel our card due to our business classification. We are a financial company. We have been in business for 54 years. If they no longer want to business with my company because we are a financial company, does that mean they are canceling all their employee credit cards that they may have because their employer is a financial company?

    I called over the phone to find out what the actual reason was that they canceled my card, and they wouldn't tell me. So I wrote a nice letter asking them why, and I did receive a response letter. It stated; "Unfortunately, we are unable to provide you with information on how your business is classified with Capital One." In other words, they still won't tell me why they canceled my card.

    If I were approving credit card applications, I would want to minimize the risk of not getting paid. I would focus on credit score, income, monthly significant bills, like mortgage, credit card and car payments, etc. My credit score is almost 800, our house is fully paid (no mortgage), we pay our full balance of any bills (including credit cards) monthly. But I was rejected because I am not carrying balances, and I applied for a couple of credit cards at the same time. Seems my 6 figure income, no mortgage, no outstanding debt, high credit score don't seem to matter to the wackos that make the decisions. But in their denial they say I can subscribe to some service to improve my credit score. These people must be on some strange meds, 'cause the credit score seems to be important to raise (when it is already high), but their letter does not even mention it.

    I already have a different one of their credit cards with a high credit limit and suggested just transferring some of that to the new Savor card, but they said they could not do that, nor could they tell me the specifics of the denial as that is proprietary information. In other words before you waste your time and a ding on your score applying, you should not know the criteria. STAY AWAY FROM CAPITAL ONE CREDIT CARDS - THEIR APPROVAL CRITERIA MAKES NO SENSE.

    First off the customer service keeps US hours. When it's daytime on the other side of the planet, and there is an emergency the automated helpline cannot detect your acct because the phone number is not the same as in the US -- well of course - one is traveling -- the tourist will most likely not be using a local us cell phone abroad! Can't this helpline ask for something more reliable like the acct or card number. The bot eventually tells you to ** off, and goodbye. You call the other 1800 numbers or out of the country numbers and they promptly tell you the bank is closed. You look online and there are no messages showing the card being blocked so you can't troubleshoot via the computer. Like I said, it's hell on earth.

This is not the first time they've done this -- previously, they were actually able to cash both of my checks after saying I was late. Unfortunately those were the times I didn't catch it in time.

    I only recently opened an account with a secured credit card with Capital One to help improve upon my credit score. Immediately upon receiving my credit card I activated it and used it to pay two bills for my partner. Shortly thereafter my partner attempted to pay my balance using his bank account. We entered his routing as well as account number as listed by his bank. A few days later the payment was “returned.” We tried, once more to submit payment. Again, a few days later the payment was “returned”. Reason for returning was stated as “Incorrect Account Number”. This could not be as this information was gotten directly from his bank account mobile page.

    I then made a call to Capital One customer service and was told by the representative that the account number was not valid. The only other number listed on his bank account webpage was the “Flash ID” for the NetSpend card that was issued to him by his bank as their debit card. I provided the representative with this information and she verified that it was the correct “account” number. Once that was verified payment was again submitted. And again, a few days later the payment was returned.

    I decided to attempt to pay via my mobile app using my own checking account information. A few days after submitting the payment my account showed as “Restricted”. I again, called Captial One customer service to find out why my account was restricted. I was told that due to the multiple “returned payments” that my account had been flagged and that I would need to submit a bank statement from my bank as well as my partner’s bank. This information was submitted and a few days later I called to get an update and was told that my account was closed, but on the same call I was advised that a different team was reviewing the statements I had submitted. This was on November 13th.

    Today I checked my account only to find that my security deposit has been refunded, and I am assuming my account remains closed. I opened this account to build my credit. Now, at no fault of my own, my account has been closed and my credit will be impacted as a result. I was extremely excited to open this account and to move towards a better financial future only to find out that what I thought would be a great thing would turn out to be a credit card nightmare. I am extremely disappointed in this company and even more disheartened that my credit, which I was working towards building, will be negatively impacted due to an error on Capital One's part.

    Background: Rec'd a credit card (0%) 20 yrs ago from this same company. Within weeks, there were so many issues with the company. I sent back the chopped card and said we're never dealing with them again. But... We sold and bought a house this year. 1) The 1st mortgage company had a finance guy who kept erring (and we dropped them even though we used them for yrs on our last house) and in that process, we kept asking him to not make hard inquiries until we were ready to buy a house. That's not what happened. We went with a different mortgage company. Our scores dropped a couple pts. 2) We got a card (for points only) to buy a couch. We paid off the loan as soon as we got it and turned in the credit card.

    Capital One shows a credit score that remains excellent - it was on the denial for a low loan (we could pay it from our bank acct.). 1. We told the dealership to just put the loan in my name because of this. They didn't listen. If they had been able to pull my partner's, despite my higher earnings, her excellent scores are better than my excellent (never makes sense :) ). 2. Capital One lied and said they couldn't contact us. They had MY INFO. Nothing was frozen. They opted not to. 3. I always know what we have and what we owe - the income to debt ratio and Capital One has it wrong.

    Just a lesson for y'all besides don't ever ever ever use Capital One - before buying a car, look at the frauds car dealerships attempt to pull. I knew of some but this one - letting someone drive off a lot without financing going through - lets the dealership repo your car (usually happens with folks with bad scores). Get a loan outside 1st or don't drive off the lot with a car (new or used) until you get it in writing your loan is secure. Search for articles about this for all info.

The customer service is rude and unprofessional and why send in proof when you verify everything by phone when a customer calls. I will be closing my account and go where I get great customer service and not charged a yearly and monthly fee just to have a credit card.

I could be stranded on a desert highway without gas for my car and you won't allow a penny over... Yet you did me a favor by charging 29.00 for a 5.00 courtesy that I can not see on my statement?

    I believe you should always show and share your appreciation for kindness. So I need to share my experience with my Capital One credit card. Please take the time to read this, I would greatly appreciate my story being heard. With that being said I called to make my payment via phone November 1st... I was confused to hear the automated balance was $700 dollars less than my statement balance. I quickly pressed 0 for customer service. Long story short I insisted to escalate the call as to the fact I thought it was an error. It was brought to my attention that my active duty husband enrolled us in SCRA (Servicemembers Civil Relief Act). It’s a program that lowers interest rates to %4, not late fees or membership fees and no finance charges for the duration of his deployment.

    I’m sure others (like me) are unaware that Capital One offers this service. $700 might not be a lot to some but it meant the world to me and my husband...Especially with upcoming holidays. Everyone seems to recognize the military only on Veterans Day and Memorial Day. It’s always been a shame being a military. We are ‘really’ honored two days a year. I felt it very necessary to thank management and waited on hold to do so. I spoke with Tyler a military specialist in the SCAR department and he listened to my story. He then thanked my family for our service and also thanked me for being so genuinely and taking the time to say thank you. I will admit I was shocked Tyler had so much empathy for me.

    After hanging up I didn’t think experience with Capital One could get any better until today... I received a huge bouquet from 1-800-flowers with the message inside that read... “It was a joy speaking with you. Your positive attitude changed my day, I hope these brightens your day, just like you did for me! Wish you nothing but the best. Daja and Capital One”. I have never felt more important... My hope for sharing this is for all credit cardholders to feel as special and appreciated as I do from a Company/corporation and employees as I do. I don’t feel like a ‘number’ and I know I will be heard in the future when I have questions or concerns. Thank you for taking care of us little people and making us feel important and valued. Not all companies take care of the military. For those of you unaware Capital One does! Forever Grateful.

    I had my identity stolen several years ago, and added additional security to every credit card, loan, and bank account I have. Capital One ended the additional protection I had, did not notify me, and sure enough, my account was compromised. My address on file was changed, and a replacement card was sent out to this new/fake address.

    Capital One had no explanation for why my additional security was removed, and simply offered to change my account number and send me a new card. They had no answer as to how this actually proactively secured my account versus just reacting to whenever someone may try this again. Their only additional security was to "lock" and "unlock" my card via their website every time I wanted to use my card. At this point, my account is closed, as Capital One does not provide a credit card with adequate security with viable usability.

    My 23 y.o daughter who already has credit score around 700 (due to paid off student loan and keeping a checking account since 15), full time job, and an account with Capital One for small car loan, has applied on-line for their credit card in response to offer sent directly to her name. Her on-line application was immediately approved but then their fraud department called and informed that they put a block on this newly issued card because my daughter's address on the card application was different from the one they found by doing hard check on her credit report. They requested proof of residence, copy of identification, and SS card to be sent to them over internet, supposedly safe URL, but who can guarantee safe transition was not their concern.

    Indeed, my daughter just graduated from PT school, started new job and moved to a new apartment. So, what? People move all the time. To prove her new address, she offered to provide copies of her state ID, employment information, apartment lease, and utility bill. Capital One said lease and paycheck are not a proof, only utility bill AND bank statement. She sent utility bill, Capital One called the utility company to verify if she was a customer. Understandably, due to security reasons, utility company refused to give out customer info over the phone because anyone could present themselves as bank and ask for her address, right?

    Next, my daughter and I share bank account where her earnings are deposited by via payroll. However, our bank shows only one address on monthly statements, the primary account holder address (that is me). Our local bank branch went above and beyond their duties and provided official letter with letterhead and signatures that my daughter is their customer, included her account number and bank routing number. This was uploaded to Capital One as requested. However, fraud department called again saying that letter is not sufficient, they only accept monthly statement with transactions.

    The fact that she has already has a loan account with Capital One registered on her new address and makes payments on schedule was not an argument for fraud department. So, regardless of your credit history, if you recently moved and have no records of your new address in your credit report, there is no way to obtain credit card from Capital One because they do not accept any reasonable document as proof of residence.

    When a customer trying so hard to make their payment on time they should appreciate them and try their best to help! Not charging them late fee for a stupid issue. When you set up an automatic payment, you are assuming that your payment will go through on time so you don't need to worry about getting charge for late fee.

    BUT then, if they change their minimum payment amount on you and you are only $1-2 different on the payment, they will charge you $27 late fee! Even when you tried to call them at 8.30 pm EST, they won't give your money back regardless. No excuse whatsoever! They'll just going to steal that money from you. So 1. I did set up auto payment, 2. I tried to call them at 8.30 pm EST once I realized that my minimum payment amount had changed., 3. you asked them to give you credit for the late fee and they won't give it to you.

    Where do I begin? Well I guess I’ll start by saying that I have a brokerage account with TD Ameritrade that also has checking account functions for bill pay purposes. Since my Capital One card would only except ACH payments I had to use the routing number and account number to make my payments. This first mix up was 100% my fault I’ll admit. I entered the routing number and my brokerage account number thinking that was the same thing. Well it wasn’t and I found out when my payment got rejected. I called TD Ameritrade to find out what was happening and they explained to me that they provide a different account number for checking purposes. She gave me that account number over the phone and we verified that I had the correct routing number which I did.

    I also called Capital One to explain the problem and they said that everything was OK and that they understood and they assisted me in removing the brokerage account number from my payment options. So on Saturday I made another attempt to pay my bill. Tuesday comes around and I see that it got rejected AGAIN! I was so beyond upset. I have more than enough money to cover this so I don’t get it. I called TD Ameritrade to see what was going on and I find out that they had done maintenance of some kind over the weekend and for some strange reason it caused a lot of people problems because their ACH transactions that they had made had bounced back as well and their call center was being flooded with calls from people with the same problem.

    So then I went back to the app and made another attempt to make a payment after I was reassured that this would not happen again and I also called Capital One to yet again explain what was going on and to reassure them that this was not my fault and they agreed and said everything was going to be OK again so then I went back to the app and made another attempt to make a payment after I was reassured that this would not happen again and I also called Capital One to yet again explain what was going on and to reassure them that this was not my fault and they agreed and said everything was ok yet again.

    Well things were far from ok. I was very surprised to get an email a couple of days later about my account being restricted. This was at 4 am MST and they are EST so I called and was told they were closed. Well I went back to sleep and when I woke up I called them first thing and was very shocked when the automated system said my account was closed. When I asked to speak to representative I was passed over to the fraud department and they said they close my account because my payment method was rejected twice. Wow boy was I amazed by this. It did not matter to them that I had called them both times to explain the problem. It did not matter to them that the second time was 100% not my fault and completely out of my hands. None of that mattered to them. They just went and close my account without giving the most recent payment a chance to go through.

    I would understand if they restricted my account until I could call in and verify everything but for them to just close it is mind-boggling to me. Especially since I had phoned them several times and kept communication open with them about the problems. They didn’t care and they said that they could not re-open my account and the only way that I could get another account with them was to apply for the card all over again.

    This the second time I have been rejected by Capital One for a prescreened credit card offer. The offer gives the applicant A $150.00 bonus if $500.00 is spent in the first 90 days. So I wasted my time filling out the application only to be rejected. To be clear I do not believe this was a good faith offer to begin with. I was asked if I was interested in or planned to transfer any Credit Card balances among other questions.

    Make your own judgment based on my experience with other banks I have got offers from. My FICO credit score hovers between 790 and 810, so say 800. In the last two years I cannot even remember how many such offers I have received and taken advantage of. But I know for sure that I got offers from and took advantage of offers from Barclay's, Bank of America, TD Bank, First Third Bank and Chase. And I just took advantage of an offer I found on my own from Barclay's so that's two offers from I have used Barclay's and Bank of America.

    It's a numbers game for them. Even though they pay out bonuses, in the long run they come out ahead collecting fees and interest payments. So when the banks I name above make such offers they are legitimate because you are accepted or rejected based on your credit score and the current relationship you have, if any, with the bank. They don't concern themselves with whether they come out ahead on any one account holder. To sum you if you get a prescreened Credit Card offer from Capital One and your credit is good and you don't carry credit card debt, don't waste your time applying. And remember this how they do business when they are pitching you a card. Can you imagine what it's like for their customers?

    I had a Capital One credit card, made my payments on time every month. One month, due to an emergency, I missed making my usual payment via a check in the mail, so I called Capital One and made a check-by-phone payment so it wouldn't be late. I was doing very well in making on time payments and didn't want to ruin my credit rating.

    NEVER again will I make a payment via check-by-phone to this or any other company because as soon as I made my payment over the phone, the person who took my information over the phone went ahead and made ANOTHER payment, only not for the normal monthly payment due. He made a payment for the BALANCE due and drained my checking account which made all other checks written previously to bounce. This incurred horrendous problems for me and ruined my credit score. My bank account (at the time Washington Mutual) was frozen by the bank due to the nature of the FORGERY, which meant no money in, no money out - I wasn't able to receive my monthly direct deposits for three months - and had no way to resolve this matter.

    Capital One never sent an apology letter, they were never prosecuted for forgery (Can you imagine what would have happened to US if WE had done something like that?) and continued to bill me for a small amount - under $30 - which I stupidly refused to pay at the time. I couldn't believe they would do this to a disabled person. Had it not been for my family, my rent would have been late for over three months and I would have been evicted from my home. Funny thing is, when I applied for a Capital One credit card recently - just to see what they would say, they wouldn't approve me - said it was because my application appeared "suspicious or FRAUDULENT!"

I am moving across the country, and don't trust my bank account card with movers which is again, the only reason I keep my one and only credit card.

    Once again, I asked these jerks for a credit increase, once again I was denied. There is nothing in my history to justify their denial. A 760+ credit score.

Having been a customer for years I called Capital One and asked if the fee could be waived as I have been a customer for years and normally pay on time or prior to the due date. I was denied. It's pretty sad when a credit card company is so greedy that they would rather I cancel my account than to offer waiving my fee. Very dissatisfied ex-customer.

    I opened a credit card with Capital One a few months ago. Got a call about a claim that I never filed. Called back and spoke with a “supervisor” at the fraud department this morning and she told me my account has been closed due to fraud. Is this for real? Closed my credit card without any notice and the worst part is they can’t even tell me why!! This will wreck my credit report and I’m currently looking to purchase a car and was thinking of using them. Thank God I have not. I had no balance on this card and always paid in full. Never carried a balance. This is beyond ridiculous. I filed a complaint with the BBB and will leave this review on every credit forum.

    For over 5 years when I have used my Capital One Credit card I have never paid past the due date. Today 10/18/2018 my payment is due. After a long day at work I come home, sit down to relax and pay my bills. I logged into Capital One to pay both my Capital One cards only to find out that they have added a late charge because my payment was not made before 8pm EDT! Since when is this a requirement that I have to pay before 8pm EDT!? Really!?? So I looked at my payments going back a full year and I never received a late fee for paying on the due date. ** Capital One! Shame on you for scamming your customers!!! So, I paid off both cards one with a balance of 2,200 and the other with a balance of 253.00. Not huge balances so no biggie and I will gladly wake up an hour and a half early tomorrow two close both! I will go back to my USAA and Navy Federal Credit Union cards and I will NEVER use civilian banking again!

    When this was the GM MC it was a pretty decent card. You could use up 6 thousand towards a new car. In some cases they would double your amount. All this without a yearly fee. Now you can only use 1500 towards a purchase and there is a 39 dollar yearly fee. They clearly don't want anybody's business as there are a multitude of cards out there that pay more & you can redeem for CASH or about anything you want! Capital One **!

    Straight to the point: My payment is missing. I mailed my payment off on October 4th. It isn't due until October 16th, but I wanted to get it out earlier so it would be on time. On Saturday, October 6th, I checked my balance but the payment had not posted. I called customer service and spoke with customer service rep who assured me that they had my payment. In fact, he said, it was on his desk as we were speaking. I checked again on Monday, the 8th, but the payment still had not posted. Again, I called customer service but was told to contact Western Union to see if the money order had been cashed. That was offensive because it seemed as if she was implying some misappropriation on my part. I mean, I'm trying to rebuild my credit and she's implying that, maybe, I didn't send it in but was trying to pull one over.

    My wife and I mailed our payments out the same day. I went paperless and do not have an account that I can set up for auto drafts, so we mailed our payments in her Capital One envelope. We were told that her payment posted on the 6th but my payment was nowhere to be found. She then gave me the address to contact their Payment Investigation Department and told me to send a copy of the money order. I don't think it'll do much good. But I'm now out $140. AND my credit will take a hit. However, she assured me that a thorough investigation will be conducted. In the meantime, my payment will be late, if it's even found at all.

    Afterwards, I was told that a machine opens the envelopes, removes the checks or the money orders, places the payments into another machine, then posts the payments (no lie, people, that's actually what I was told). But then the rep says that my payment was likely shredded by the machine. So I spoke with a supervisor, who assured me that "a thorough investigation into the matter would be conducted." In the meantime, she would place a "provisional credit" to my account. However, if the Payment Investigation Department decides to do nothing, or determines that it is MY fault (one of which is likely to happen) then the credit comes off and I'm out $140. My wife can keep her card, but after I pay off my balance, Capital One won't be in my wallet. And neither will the $140 I lost.

    I have been with Capital One for almost 2 years now. I have three open accounts in good standing for the past year, meaning I've never missed a payment and never been late on a payment. My husband, is an authorized user on all of my accounts. He also has his own Capital One card where he is the primary cardholder. He applied for another Capital One card a few months later and was approved. When we got his card in the mail however, it was a totally different story. We tried to activate his card online, and was redirected to a representative who accused my husband and I of fraud.

    They said that he was not who he said he was, with no reason given! Then, they required all these documents which take time effort on our part. They said they needed a copy of his driver's license, something with his address on it, and something with his social security number on it. I uploaded all the following documents, his driver's license current, a current registration with his address clearly on it, and a copy of his last year's tax returns which clearly shows and states his social security number. When they called to verify the information, they again called my husband a liar and a fraud committed. And told him he would have to submit all documents in person. What a joke this company is!

    Are you telling me we have been with this company for over a year now with four accounts in good standing and now all of a sudden we're being accused of fraud?? I cannot believe the audacity of this company. When I have been so loyal and a wonderful customer. I would never recommend Capital One to anybody. Never apply for this credit card. I plan on closing all of my accounts and I will never reopen with Capital One.

    I spoke to Sammy (employee ID **) and inquired about my interest rate. It became immediately evident that the answers to my interest rate question she provided to me were WRONG, because they did not match the amount of interest I have been paying monthly for years. I was very polite, and asked further questions about my interest rate, at which point she became EXTREMELY RUDE and CONDESCENDING. This was a red flag for me to terminate this conversation, as it seemed to me, Sammy got ANGRY and FRUSTRATED with me simply because I asked a question that she did not know the answer to.

    I asked Sammy to speak with a supervisor, Toshara (employee ID **) got on the phone and I was immediately greeted very rudely, so I didn't waste any time and asked Toshara for ANOTHER representative to help me. Toshara let me know there was NOBODY else I could talk to. I HUNG UP. Called Capital One back and asked the automated system when prompted for "customer complaint department". The person who answered the phone asked me about my experience and I gave them the details. Afterwards they asked me if they could help me with the original question I called in about.

    The representative provided me the CORRECT information about my interest rate, and confirmed my belief that the first agent, Sammy, was completely WRONG. Sammy was not even close to providing the correct information. Sammy told me I needed to pay off my entire balance for two consecutive months BEFORE I would not be charged the "cash advance interest rate" monthly. This immediately made no sense to me because the cash advance interest rate I pay is a smaller portion of my entire balance. Horrible customer service by representatives who have NO CLUE what they are talking about.

    Capital One credit cards state that they have fraud protection. What this means is that they decline every charge from an unknown vendor and freeze the customer's card. Other than very large, well-known companies, I cannot use my card. Every charge at a restaurant, boutique or salon is declined and the card is frozen until I call and go through several hoops. This has nothing to do with credit. My credit is stellar and I pay my bill off every month. Capital One is the worst credit card company I have ever used.

    They are not interested in customer happiness. I have multiple other cards, all from different companies and I haven’t had an issue with any of the others. However, I have had MANY issues with Capital One. One of my first credit card accounts and it is absolutely the worst one by far. If it wouldn’t hurt my credit, I would close my account with them.

    DO NOT open an account for any other reason than to improve your credit score by having another open account. Also, DO NOT expect them to approve a credit line increase. I’ve requested increases several times to raise my total credit limit and reduce my utilization rate. They always give a BS reason for denying the request. The last time I requested an increase, I had just got a large salary increase, I had about a 5.7% utilization rate on my Capital One account and about 28% total utilization rate across all accounts.

    They said my request was denied because the usage of my existing credit line was too high. This has happened at least 5 time and none of my requests were ever approved. I’ve had this card for 10 years and the only increase I’ve received, (from the ridiculous initial $300 limit), was automatically done by Capital One, only a year or so ago. Save yourself the frustration and apply for another card to avoid dealing with Capital One altogether.

    Everybody needs to read the Credit Card Act of 2009 which I just discovered. I am primary and I have two authorized users on my account. I contacted Capital One because on my Experian credit report they reported the wrong amount. It was $235 more. I told customer service that on my other reports and authorized users that everything was correct. They tell me I can dispute it with them. I did and what a mistake that was. They changed all credit bureau reports to the $235 more.

    I spoke with them and it was explained to me by a customer service rep and an account specialist (If it actually was an account specialist) and was told that is what they do. I spoke to a supposed Supervisor and he said, "No. We don't do that." Well they did it. I wrote a complaint to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and I have made two more after that to protect myself.

    They did not report what they said they were going to report to the credit bureaus and they changed my first reported dates during the process increasing the years from the original date. Had to dispute with two credit bureaus and am waiting on a report from another bureau because they can't see date first reported. What a mess. I would like to say that I called before all this happened and explained to a customer service rep that one of my authorized users applied for credit and couldn't get a credit score from Equifax. His response is, "It is not our fault if the credit bureau doesn't report the information we provide them." Well Capital One did not provide enough information. The credit bureaus are regulated the FTC and they have to report everything provided to them.

    Then I find out that Capital One never reported my authorized user to Experian. In one Consumer Financial Protection Bureau complaint I ask them to report my authorized user to Experian and upload his Experian credit report to show they never reported them. I also ask that they make sure all information is updated on my other authorized user. Come to find out my other authorized user can't get an Equifax report which tells me that Capital One has either not reported him to Equifax or has not given enough personal information.

    Got a call from Executive Offices, Resolution, she left a message. Call back and never receive call back until I make another complaint to the CFPB. She calls and I'm so tired of the whole situation I don't call her back. I get a call on September 20, 2018, from Executive Offices, Resolution, he left a message. I called back on September 24, 2018, had to leave a message.

    The same person from Executive Offices calls on October 1, 2018, and leaves a message. He talks as though he never received my message from September 24th and wants me to leave on voicemail basically as to what I want done. I call back 23 minutes later and leave a message that I called you last Monday and I can't leave a message as to what I want done on a voicemail. We all know how long a voicemail goes and then you get cut during mid-sentence. I asked him to call me back. I have dealt with resolution specialists before and they never answer their phone.

    February 28, 2018, called Capital One and asked to speak with an Account Specialist. I have spoken to supposed Account Specialists before. She says they don't have a phone number but she has an address I can write to. I said, "Why should I have to write a letter." Told her I'll dispute and make a complaint to the CFPB again. I believe they have me flagged now. I'm just waiting for them to close my account. I also decided after discovering it existed and reading the Credit Report Act of 2009, that took effect February 22, 2010, I would download all my statements that are left on the Website.

    I found a discrepancy where my interest rate was raised 7% from a variable rate after the Credit Card Act went into effect. Didn't notice the increase until after I moved to another home and I specifically remember talking to a Capital One customer service rep and he could not tell me why my interest rate went up. So while the prime rate goes up so does my variable rate interest plus that extra 7% interest. According to the Credit Card Act, after February 22, 2010, if you are at a variable rate they can only increase your interest rate when the prime rate changes. There's a really big issue here for me because the prime rate at the time never increased. This may be a legal issue.

    I started reading about credit cards last year and about how you can try to get interest rates reduced. I didn't even know you could do that. So with Capital One I did it last year for first time and they would only reduce rate for 6 months. Said they would not lower my interest rate. Sorry for the book, but I have found that dealing with Capital One is a nightmare from customer service, account specialists, and supervisors. You can't get a straight answer from anybody. I would like to add that it's not the overseas customer service reps it's the American customer service reps and American Account Specialists and Supervisors.

    I always wonder when I call and they say they're transferring you to somebody if it is actually the department you want or if it's just another customer service rep. Beware when you ask a customer service rep a question and they put you on hold. That means they don't know the answer and they're asking another customer service rep.

I've had my Platinum MasterCard card for over 5 yrs and had maintained an excellent payment history until just about a year and a half ago. Medical costs started piling up, my husband went on FMLA and lost 40% of his income, then went on SS Disability and lost another 20%. Through it all, Capital One had my back. Sure, late fees and finance fees started piling up until it wasn't long until I was over my credit limit.

    I did not wait until they started calling me!!! I truly believe this helped salvage my situation with them. They were kind, understanding and one representative even sent me a gorgeous lightweight blanket filled with words of hope and encouragement! It has taken over 8 months to get to the point where I am UNDER my credit limit now though my balance is still too high for my liking. My payments are now "normal-ish" but doable. Their payment assistance program and department employees helped us with no doubt.

    8 weeks ago both mine and my spouse's checking accounts were hacked into. Via fraudulent phone call pretending to be Capital One fraud department. However, I did not give the scammer any account info. As a result, over $1,000 was stolen from my Capital One checking account. After a week or so Capital One informed me that the money will be refunded. I asked them to close my account due to the fraud as well as the fact that I moved to an area where they do not have branches. Immediately after the fraud occurred I updated my account with my new mailing address.

    After a week waiting for the refund check, I contacted the bank - I was informed by Capital One representative that the check was mailed to my old address. The rep stated that she will stop the check and issue me a new one which will be mailed to my new address. Another week wait - calling the bank again inquiring where is my check. Speaking to a supervisor at this point I was told that no-one can stop my check without an affidavit which I have to sign and mail back. So you have incompetent or poorly trained reps who gave me completely wrong info. Bank rep said - "We can do the affidavit over the phone Capital One rep will call you within 24 hours. 48 business hours..." no call.

    Calling again - supervisor - "we are sorry for your trouble"... "I will escalate this." "What is your phone number and your email?" I already gave you that info 3 times... No email no affidavit in the mail several days later. Calling again... where is my money? Can you confirm via email or text to my phone that we spoke and you promised that the affidavit is on the way? Reply from the rep... no we cannot do either of those...

"I don't know" - where is my affidavit? Do you have any record that it was mailed? Answer: "No." Am I dealing here with a national bank or bunch of thieves? Question: Are you aware that even if the check was mailed due to your negligence to my old address - all my mail from that address is being forwarded to my new address?

After spending 20 minutes trying to find a way to get ahold of them I messaged them on Facebook (so sad that anyone should have to resort to that) and they sent me a link for a chat. The representative was very unhelpful and transferred me to an equally unhelpful, unapologetic manager. When I voiced my concerns about the damage to my credit report his response was that the account has been late 14 times since it was opened. Are you serious?

Because I am a responsible consumer and do not incur late fees? They charged me a late fee of $3! Will not break the bank but they would not explain their billing system and how everything was fine until they took over. I no longer carry their card.

    I have never really had an issue with this card till this month. Every month I get my statement on the 19th in the morning. When I wake up, it is available to view. This month it was very important for me to get it the same time as I am trying to apply for a mortgage next month and needed my score to go up a lot, I even took out money from my 401k to make sure my balance would be very low for when the statement comes out on the 19th, however this month it did not come out until the 20th. I am very upset, I called customer service numerous times and no one can give me an answer as to why it came out a day later, so all my pending transactions came out on the new statement making my balance higher than It would have been had it come out on the 19th as it was supposed to. No one there can help nor did they care.

    Stupidly missed a payment. Very good about making payments with them on time, as I have two credit cards and a 360 car loan. They wouldn't reverse the $25 late fee. So I had to pay that. Before that, I got a $49 yearly maintenance fee for the honor of having their card. LOL! The $49 extra fee threw me off, things were tight, and because I didn't make a full minimum payment (my normal payment is $25, and that's what I always make, but due to the $49 fee, I was supposed to have made more). They then charged me $38 "underpayment fee." That made it so my payment due was $111. Couldn't afford it, they said they'd work out a schedule with me. Great. But that schedule included late fees as well. Crooks. I regret doing business with them. Disgusted.

    I reported a fraudulent website that sent me a $1 stuffed animal instead of $500 golf clubs. They said they would check into it and submit it as "goods not delivered" but would get back with me IF they needed anything else. I offered screenshots and photos but they said "not now". A few weeks later after not getting any alerts through the APP that I use I decided to log on using a desktop and found deep inside the website after signing in I had to click on the specific account and then click "account services" and then go to "alerts and messages" then click "view messages" only to find two messages that I could not ever find in the APP. (When my car loan is due I get a big red bubble alert on the home page.)

    When I viewed the messages after a long holiday weekend, the first one asked for additional information which I previously offered and the second one due to a lack of response the claim was denied (within a week). Shocking and Unbelievable. I am now in the process of trying to close my accounts but I spent an hour searching the website for an email or an electronic way to close the account and cannot find anything.

    I have been a Capital One credit card customer for many years and rarely if ever carry a balance. I had a horrible hotel stay in July and the facility did not have any on premises parking my last night there and did nothing to correct it nor did they clean my room. After providing numerous documents, statements and a witness to Capital One they want me to provide a credit voucher or second opinion which makes zero sense regarding a hotel stay. No matter whom I spoke to it fell on deaf ears and they treated the stay as a purchase of goods and could not comprehend the difference. I am now canceling my 3 accounts with them and will pay whatever they deem reasonable in both of my disputes as I have no time for nonsense or idiotic employees.

    I recently paid off a debt of 490 some dollars that I owed. The amount was due on the 12th and I paid it in full on the 11th. I receive a new charge of $6 that I still owe and when I called customer service, I got two answers: 1. Because they still need to charge me for the interest on the card from the previous month. When I disputed: 2. Because my payment was sent in on the 11th but the billing cycle does not close until the 15th so they have to charge me interest, even though it was paid before the due date. So all in all, all they want is %, even when you don't owe anything. Other than the mileage that I get on this card, this card services and customer service is a joke.

    Capital One takes 3 business days to process electronic payments and then charge you interest. They charged me over $300 in interest over 3 months even though I processed the payment on the due date via e-transfer. I have an AMEX & Visa and the day I process my e-payments with them is the day they receive it. No one takes 3 days to receive funds digitally - EDI happens in minutes, if not seconds. When I called to complain they said it was a “legitimate charge but were willing to offer me $30 to satisfy me.” My response - "No thanks, I just simply won’t be doing business with you anymore."

    This company is a full-blown nightmare. Something as simple as getting access to my online banking and it has been over a month of the run-around. I've had the terrible task of calling them 6 times in regards to not being able to access my account online. Every time I call they tell me they have fixed the issue and I have to wait 72 hours in order to try accessing it again. So I wait the 72 hours, still doesn't work. Call, repeat the same process (waiting on hold while they "correct the errors"), then once again they tell me I have to wait 72 hours before trying. This happens a couple more times so I call and ask to speak to a supervisor. She is not very nice to me on the phone after waiting 30 mins to talk to her. I express my frustration with being constantly told to wait 72 hours and try again - which SHE then tells me I have to wait ANOTHER 72 HOURS before trying again and this time it will for sure work.

    You guessed it - didn't work. So I just got off the phone with them again and told them how this issue is driving me insane and I can't keep repeating the same process over and over with them anymore. So now they have sent an email to their tech department (why didn't they do that in the first place!) and I have to wait 5 business days before trying to sign-in again. Their apologies for the inconvenience came across as condescending and insincere. I am fed up. The absolute most pathetic company I have ever dealt with.

    I recently went into the bank to withdraw cash. I hadn’t received any letters stating that they were getting rid of the tellers? I had my checkbook & a state ID and was told I couldn’t make a withdrawal without my debit card. I had accidentally left my wallet on my boat and thought I’ll just run in so I can get cash. Because of banking mergers, I have two checking accounts, a 360 account and my business card and credit card all through Capital One. I couldn’t believe that I could not withdraw cash from my account! They said the closest bank with tellers was over 2 1/2 hours away in Houston! Out of anger I asked to close one of my accounts and they said they did issue a cashier's check which I was going to go across the street and open up a new account with a new bank.

    After the account was closed online she walked back to get the cashier's check but promptly returned stating she couldn’t because my ID (Texas state conceal carry identification) wasn’t accepted in their system. Unlike a driver's license this license has a full background check with fingerprinting!!! Yet, she couldn’t reverse closing the account but refused to give me my money. A manager came out to assist and eventually had to call someone online at Capital 360 who ended up hanging up on him on purpose! I strongly advise everyone to leave this bank.

    Not to mention I’ve been paying $35 a month fee for my business checking for all kinds of services that are no longer offered. I guess they didn’t feel the need to reimburse me when they took them away.

    My account was restricted due to a scam check that was deposited into my account. There was a number on my account that I was supposed to call. I called it the day that my account was restricted. I got voicemail, so I left a message and expected to be called back within 24-48 hours (like normal businesses do). So after 2 days with no callback, I called the number again. Voicemail. So I left another message, and again, no callback. I did this two more times. After waiting a couple days for someone to call me back, I noticed that my account was negative the amount the check was. Not only did they deny the check (which I wanted to happen), they also withdrew the check so that my account went into the negatives. So after all of this, I did not care that my account was restricted anymore, I just wanted to close my account because I opened a Chase account, and just wanted to be with a company that actually cared about their customers.

    Finally, I called Customer Service, went through the whole automated system, and finally got through to an actual person. They heard my situation, and the lady transferred me to the SAME VOICEMAIL SYSTEM that I had left FOUR voicemails on. So I left a 5th voicemail on that service. I immediately called back customer service. The lady answered the phone and as I was giving her my SSN and information so she could get into my account, I could hear her laughing and talking to other coworkers while "helping" me. Helping was the absolutely last thing she was doing. She told me that she would have to transfer me to that same voicemail system I had been getting over and over again.

    I had enough, I told her to put me on hold and transfer me to someone who works in the department that I am "supposedly" leaving all these messages with. She told me someone would be right with me, but apparently "right with me" means sitting on hold for 30 minutes. So after 30 minutes, I hung up and called customer service back, for the third time in a row, in the same day. The next person I talked to, to give him credit he was very nice and seemed like he did want to help, he put me on hold for a little bit while he checked to see who could help me with my account issue. Of course, he was told to transfer me to the voicemail system that I have already left numerous messages at.

I suggest everyone stay away from Capital One. Bad attitude folks...not helpful...couldn't care less.

    I had 2 credit cards with Capital One. They kept raising interest rate. I paid off the one and after paying it off in full I receive a bill for interest. When I talked to customer service woman was rude and said, "Even though you paid off the balance you still owe this interest." I told her I was paying off the other card and would no longer be a customer of Capital One. She did not care in the least. 12 years of being a customer, never late with 1 payment and it means nothing. Capital One does not respect or appreciate their customers.

    I have 2 cards with Capital One and fell into some hard times and allowed my accounts become past due. I received several emails from Capital One on how to keep my accounts from being charged off. I set up several payment arrangements in good faith, to keep the account from being charged off. Finally after a luck of good fortune, I was able to catch my accounts up. I've been paying more than the minimum each month for the last 3 months and my cards are still in a restricted status. When I speak to a representative, I am told there is nothing they can do and that their system is what comes up with a reinstatement offer. I feel like I did my part and took responsibility for the account becoming past due by bringing the accounts back into a good standing, now I'm at the mercy of a computer system to reinstate my account. Beware if you choose Capital One. I'm thinking about talking this to my local news station to spread the word of this deceptive practice.

    With credit scores in the 800-825 range for years, Cap One downgraded it to 775 ("excellent") after applying for a construction-to-mortgage loan. Said "balance on a current loan too high compared to what was initially borrowed" (it was a NEW home equity loan dummy!) AND "too many inquiries on my credit report" (that's what happens when you shop for a construction loan) AND "don't have enough experience managing a first mortgage." (I PAID OFF my first mortgage in 2000 and that wasn't even in their records!) And finally, "don't have enough experience with credit." (I've used credit for 40 years and NEVER missed a payment including student loans, credit cards, a mortgage, etc.) And they think they know what a good vs. bad credit risk is with their flawed algorithms, records and system!!

    If I could give negative stars, I would give -100. I will refuse to do business with this poor excuse of a company until the day I die and I will most certainly share my personal experience with anyone that will listen. Personal Experience: Capital One approved me for a vehicle loan and then actually changed the agreement terms AFTER I signed the paperwork; which I did not even know was possible, or even legal to do. Over a month goes by with no paperwork and then the dealership contacts me about my situation. Since it had been over a month since the approval, they were forced to perform another credit check with hard inquiries, causing my credit score to drop even further. I will be in the market for another vehicle in a short amount of time (1 year) and the fact that they pulled this completely unethical, unacceptable move will take this company off of the table when my next loan is getting rates!!

    I had done a balance transfer some time ago with them and the rate was Zero percent. They are the only bank that I do business with that does not advise the expiration date of the Zero interest offer on the bill each month. I had a relatively large balance in the zero percent and was blindsided when without warning the rate expired and went up to 19.9% and my next bill had a $122 interest payment included. This practice is predatory and must be illegal! They rely on you losing track of the end date of the offer and then zap you with a high interest payment before you are alerted to make a move.

    I had a Capital One Quicksilver reward credit card for several years. Started off with a $500 limit. Worked my way up to a $2,000 limit. Never missed a payment. Sometimes paid 3 times in one month. The card comes with a one-time yearly fee. I try to get that fee waived because my credit was great. They were extremely rude. Told me they would not waive the fee. I wanted to transfer to another card. They refuse to do it so I end up canceling.

    I recently checked my credit report to find a fraudulent account. I disputed this on my credit report and Capital One refused to acknowledge it was fraudulent and the credit bureau refused to remove it despite my offering to submit a police report and other documentation showing I didn't live at the address it was opened to. They've since sold the account off to collections (or so it seems) and now I'm being sued by a shady law office with dozens of lawsuits filed against them for shady practices. Unfortunately for both, I'm not a poor schmuck they can prey on and I've hired an attorney to challenge both. I'll gladly follow up with countersuit. I strongly urge others to beware of their shady practices. I'll do my best to get a class action lawsuit going against Capital One and to put the shady law firm they supposedly use out of business.

    I recently applied and was approved for one of the Quicksilver credit cards. Upon receiving my confirmation letter it was then noted that my APR was going to be at 24.74% based on the credit score they listed that they obtained from Experian. I am a member of Experian and when I checked my acct with them I noticed that 4 days prior to Capital One doing an inquiry that my credit score was 735. Capital One on the letter says that Experian reported a score of 683. That's a 50 point difference.

    I believe that Capital One is preying on the consumers ignorance about their credit scores and are charging higher APR rates than they should be. I had 3 accounts with them but have since closed them all and will be moving my business to other banks/credit cards. Oh, and when I called to cancel the cards they didn't even attempt to get me to stay so they must know they were in the wrong. Stay Away!

It just got worse - they put a hold on my account and won't even confirm that they received a payment from me unless I go to my bank and get some kind of ID that will satisfy them that I'm not some kind of criminal.

    I got a Capital One MasterCard from Costco. The website has sign in issues. Sure, everyone has tech problems once in a while, but usually they can correct it or provide a work-around. Not so Capital One. Even though I was using the correct password and username, it wouldn't sign me in to have a look at my statements. The first person who answered the phone couldn't find a solution within the time available, and by then I was over an hour into trying to sign in. A look at my statements would suffice for the moment; I needed to know the name of a firm who I made a purchase from within the last month or two. Capital One refused to email me my last couple of statements, and despite attempts by the Chat helper, I was still denied access to my account.

    When Chat became a revolving door, I tried calling by phone again. This time the person point blank refused to help, and said that because I - under the guidance of their helpers - had tried to log in too many times, they would not deal with me further. Frustrating when you need the address today of a firm from your statement. The last helper was deliberately not helpful, and insulting in a politically correct way, by saying she could not help me, and suggesting I try to sign in about three days from now. No worries, plenty of cards out there. I'll cancel for lousy service. Get a card somewhere else. Why deal with people who aren't nice to you? Who needs that kind of treatment. Be nice or lose my business. You lost mine.

    I have had my Capital One card for well over two years, I was very satisfied with them in the beginning. I had just started to rebuild my credit and it was a great card for me. Now, I’m so done with how they have all this predetermined interest ‘scams’. I paid my balance off in full before the due date and I was charge interest not once but on two different occasion. I accidentally linked my card to PayPal and it is considered a cash advance. I have been getting charged interest for well over a year until it's paid in full until I stopped getting charged interest. Because I made one minor mistake I have been paying more than the item I originally got. You cheat the consumer so much and I can’t wait to make this last interest payment that I shouldn’t even be paying and be done with them, I will tell everyone I know to never ever use them and to be aware of how they deceive their customer with interest rates. It’s just unbelievable!

    Rate -1-Star - they deserve no stars. Trying to rebuild my credit a number of years ago - I acted on a credit card offer from HSBC - low credit limit; annual fee but I needed to get back on track. A couple years later the account was sold to CAPITAL ONE. Fast forward to March 2018 when I was asked for my home address by CAP ONE. I hesitated to provide this info since the account has been opened since 2011 w/o anyone else ever asking me for this information. I know the Patriot Act requires it however HSBC faulted in pushing the account through w/o proper vetting of who was opening the account.

    In March 2018 - CAP ONE closes my account. I called numerous times and asked for a refund to the annual fee of $60. Each time I'm told no-you can't have a refund. Most recent communication w/them and the guy tells me "Oh you could have gotten a refund but only within 40 days after the account was closed. Again - no one at CAP ONE told me this even when I asked about refunding the fee. I'm requesting a refund to the annual fee along with all the interest charges building on that $60 since October 2017... when the fee was charged again. Once this account is paid off I'm done with CAPITAL ONE and all credit cards.

On July 24th I returned their call. I first spoke to Raena, then transferred to Sharon, an account supervisor and then she transferred me to Jessica. Incredible how they did find where I spoke to someone but there is no record stating a woman agreed to waive my $160 in late QuickSilver Credit Card fees. Finally I said, "Then ask the woman who transferred me to her. You just said you see where I spoke to her and I told her I just wanted to pay this account off and have the account deleted completely." She said she needed to transfer me to someone else and after a few seconds I was disconnected. This company will keep hounding you even after you pay them off.

    Let me start by saying I have been a Capital One card holder for 21 years and 3 months!!! On July 13th, I paid my balance in FULL according to Capital One's online site. On July 18th, I used my card for a Redbox rental. Not wanting to be charged interest on $1.86, I once again paid my balance in full on July 19th according to their website. On July 21, my statement was issued. I had a ZERO balance and they charged me $25.97 as interest on a ZERO balance! I called and spoke to manager George. He informed me that the charge would not be reversed and that even though I had paid the balance in FULL according to their own site, it was a "valid" charge.

    I then asked him if I paid off the $25.97 that was now showing as the full balance if this deceptive charge would once again occur. I was told YES!!! According to George, even though their site said I had a balance of $25.97 AFTER having paid it down to $0 already, the balance was REALLY $26.03!!! You're reading that right... I paid the card to a ZERO balance. They added $25.97. When I went to dispute it, they RAISED it to $26.03!! I even asked George, "So your own website LIES to its consumers and you can't ACTUALLY EVER pay your account off?!" I was seriously told that THAT WAS CORRECT and you can ONLY pay it off by calling, getting a payoff amount, paying that amount at THAT moment via phone, and closing the account!!! They charge interest on NOTHING! Run away as fast as you can!
