This is a very unprofessional company from my dealing - made up of dishonest, ruthless people starting at the top, that is why the CEO hides from his Customers and the Public. He does not and will not face the actions of his company. BE VERY CAREFUL. They will do anything to hurt your credit rating. Look at the complaints files. This company should be removed - shut down just like the BANKSTER of this Country.

Capital One said there was fraud on my account and now I can not access any of my money from checking and savings account. I am still waiting to hear from a Capital One investigator. It has been 3 days. Still nothing has been done and can not get into my accounts. DO NOT BANK WITH THIS COMPANY.

I had called to cancel my cards since they have an annual fee and I don't use them anymore since I have cards with no annual fee. The person that I spoke to offered to waive the fees if we did not close the accounts. Thinking that maybe we might use them again, I agreed. My wife and I have 4 accounts with a zero balance that they offered us this on. We called before the due dates so there would not be an issue. Since I had no balance I had no reason to look at the statements.
2 months later I get a past due notice from one of the accounts with 2 late charges. I called and they said they would waive those since it was on a charge they waived and should have waived before the due date. The next month there is still a charge for a late fee. I called again and they stated that they could only waive one late charge even though it was a late charge on a late charge that should not have even been charged. Needless to say, because of their bad customer service, we paid the late charge and closed all 4 accounts. We have been customers for a long time and have used our accounts and paid them off and have never paid late. It must be nice that they can just write off great customers over a $25 charge that was their fault to begin with. Needless to say I will not be using Capital One for any future accounts.

I opened a Secured Debit card with Capital One. For those of you unfamiliar with secured debit cards its basically only for people who do not qualify for a real credit card due to horrible credit score. So they allow you to deposit your own money and you get charged interest on your own money to build up credit. So I deposited $200 and things were going just fine. A few months down the line Capital One offered me to up my credit to $500. Meaning I have an extra $300 of real credit available and $200 of my own cash in the card.
Once again things were going fine, so much so Capital One decided to up my credit to $750... Well after about a year of this I decided to cancel the card to obtain a real credit card as my goal was to raise my credit enough to ditch this high interest card and get something more reasonable. When I called to cancel my card they mentioned that this was never a secured card. IMPOSSIBLE seeing as how my credit score was at 355 NO ONE would ever give me a real credit card.
Capital One is Stealing my initial $200 deposit. If a person were to do this they would be in jail. Let alone do it to what Im assuming is not just me. I mean you do this to 1000 people and you made someone at Capital a nice bonus they can pocket. Whatever happened to honest people and honest companies? I seriously hope this company tanks and loses everything. Its not enough to make money off of services but to literally steal from hardworking people, now thats an atrocity against the proletariat.

Buyer beware when online app. for this co. I successfully opened a 360 checking account only to find out they closed it with no explanation. Called customer service. The agents were rude and hung up in calling back and after extremely long hold time the supervisor I spoke with asked all these weird questions. And after all that "Sorry we can't verify your identity." What a crock of you know what. Other institutions will let you know within 60 seconds of filling out an app. if you're approved or not. The manager at Capital One was condescending so do not do business with Capital One. After reviewing many reviews it's beyond my comprehending why they are still in business.

I arrived at an ATM machine at 2:10 PM, 6/4/16. I was there to deposit a $25,000 check in to my business account. After entering my pin #, I received a message that something like: "we're sorry but we will not be able to return your check to you". I stood and stared for about 2 minutes because I was unsure what this meant - since I had not yet deposited the check. After the 2 minutes, I decided to cancel the transaction and nothing happened.... for another 15 minutes, as I continued to attempt to cancel the transaction. I wasn't able to leave the ATM because I was concerned that it would suddenly start to work and someone would come along and retrieve my card.
I called Capital One, and after several extremely annoying prompts, got someone on the phone who told me they could have a ATM repair crew there in 4 to 6 hours. I did not have the account #, or Tax ID on me when I went to deposit the check - that's not required in order to make the deposit... They could do nothing for me. I could either sit there for 4-6 hours or drive away and hope that the machine did not spit out my card to someone else. The best part is there was someone in the bank... who wouldn't respond to my banging on the window.
After another 45 minutes, the machine rebooted and I called Capital One back to explain again. I was told the card would be shredded when the bank re-opened in the morning. It was irretrievable from the ATM at that time. Feeling less than somewhat assured, I left. Upon arriving home, I called Capital One with my business account #. I did not have the tax ID # since my partner had opened the account, but I was told that they could find the account with my social security #, which I assumed was correct since I provided that information to open the account.
The next day, I went to use my personal ATM card - and Yes! the moron on the phone cancelled my personal ATM card instead of the business ATM card. As you know you need to go to the branch to get a replacement, or wait 5 -10 days for them to mail one. If you're a working person and cannot be home to sign, for a federal express mail the next day - which I am. I have had many other stupid administrative issues with this bank and was reluctant to open yet another bank account, with hundreds of thousands of dollars, at this bank - I will never do that again, and plan to move my accounts, as soon as this transaction is completed.

As a long time customer of Capital One, I've had a problem where your bank has repeatedly overcharged my account just so your company can collect late fees & interest on an account - even when the payments were received (by you) a full week before they were due, but the payments were not posted to the account until after the due date.
Since the first of January I've had to call and ask why my payment was held onto for up to two weeks and not applied to my account until after the due date. This problem wasn't a one-time error. In fact, every month since January I've had the same problem. I can understand just once, maybe even twice... but three or four times??? Leads me to believe that Capital One has applied this new practice to get more interest & late fees out of its customers... I do be that's illegal.
I've called customer service over and over but all I've received is lie after lie, as each person I've tried to get an answer from gives me the runaround. When I've asked to speak to a supervisor I'm told that there isn't anyone else they can let me speak to since they were the only people who can handle these problems... We all know that's a lie now don't we. The two individuals who kept lying to me were Alecia #** & Shae #** (she hung up on me).
I've been paying my bills the same way for over 10 years (via bank electronically - sending a check) and have never had this problem before so I know it's not because my bank sends a check to you. Should I get no response from you then I'll have no choice but to turn this matter over to the Federal Banking Commission... I'm sure they'll want to know just what kind of illegal banking practices your company is involved with.

My card been declined. I called it in and she asked me 3 question and the cashier was waiting and she said the system is slow and she waiting on the system, I answered them all correct but she said the system refused it. That's why I will have a court order to send me the phone call recorder and all the answer she entered it in the system. It's not my mistake if you hiring people don't speaks English and she entered the wrong answers or having a really bad system. Then they asked me to send them a pictures of my social security and ID and bank statement and that will take them 72 hours to review.
The problem they think that they are the only CC in USA and the worse than that, I bought some food in same night and it pass it with no problem and even my card been suspended LOL. They are far way from any CC company. They are the Fraud by itself. If I'm was right, my lawyer office will ask for class of action because we already seen a lot of review complaining about their process. Many thanks.

I have had a Capital One MasterCard for a few years now and 3 times my card number was stolen. I called immediately and true to Capital Ones' policy, I did not have to pay the charges. One was an incident in which somebody was buying online and shipping to multiple addresses with multiple email addresses. There would have been additional charges every month for subscriptions and I would have been bankrupt within days. Everything was deleted and a new card mailed out. Also, charges were for an international hotel in Canada and I live in the US. Even though everything was taken care of in the past, I was so worried that I would have to pay the charges that I told the representative that I could provide an ironclad alibi as I was at work.
I had not even left the country in years. I was told that I didn't need to worry. The representative also checked and found more charges for the same hotel that had not posted to my card. All charges were disputed and negated from my card when nobody at the hotel would even accept a call from Capital One trying to substantiate the charges. I was told that the charges would have been removed regardless of the hotel not answering. I was mailed out a new card. Everything was fine until more charges from the same hotel showed up on my new card. I called again and everything was taken care of at the time. Capital One even made a stipulation that they would no longer accept any charges from that specific hotel and I was mailed out another new card. All good.

It's very inconvenience for me waiting 5 days for my CC to be restricted again. I send all the documents and whatever they want to have and still my account is restricted. I talk to their so called customer service person and as for my experience she just don't care if they lose a customer. I understand that this company just want to protect their investment or whatever but if there no customer there know you. So think of it. I might be one but if people asked me about what I experience I will probably say "Don't go Capital One."

On April 4, 2016, Capital One, chose to close my credit card account. They said they are not required to tell me the reason and the only explanation they gave me was, "Past, Present, Pending Legal Action." They also said that they do not have to have a reason. They can close the account any time they want. When I asked what it was they said "Contact your county clerk's office", which I did and there is no past, present, or pending legal action on me at the county clerk's office. I have a paper stating that.
Here is where it seems a little seedy to me. They contacted me by mail and pre-qualified me for this card which is suppose to help me increase my credit score. I did have a bankruptcy over 10 years ago and they would have known that when they pre-qualified me. So, I was so thrilled when I was approved. I have only had this credit card since September 19, 2015. In December 2015 they increased my credit limit without me asking so you can understand why I am confused that 8 months later they closed it and it was not from lack of use or nonpayment. I pay my bill every month on time. Is it unreasonable for me to want to know why they decided to do this?

Unfortunately, it gets FAR worse.
When we learned they had forgotten to send the wire 15 days earlier, though they DID NOT forget to charge the $40 fee of course, they offered to send it again. So 15 days after the 1st attempt they "supposedly" sent the $27,400 again. However, once again, the funds never arrived at the recipient bank, & they have still NOT arrived after 24 days later!! So after a total of 38 days, Capital One not only has ABSOLUTELY ZERO idea where our $27,400 has gone, but they have NO clue what they have done with the money at all. They don't know where it is or what they had done with it. They refuse to return it to our account, claiming they need to "check further". 30 years of doing business with numerous financial institutions, & never, Never, NEVER encountered a more incomprehensibly incompetent operation. Or, is it blatant fraud?

I admittedly had an outstanding balance I owed and was in collections. One day I get a letter in the mail stating my outstanding debt was being discharged and that I would receive a 1099 tax form. It did not say why it was being discharged but I was happy but naively thinking my debt was forgiven. I never questioned it until a few years later while trying to buy a house. The lender called me telling me there was something wrong and I better call Capital One ASAP because I was listed as deceased with all of the major credit bureaus. So I call them to find out what was going on. Starting off they were so friendly and helpful telling how good it was to hear my voice and congratulating me on being alive. They were fast to correct the issue notify the credit bureaus. Great right? Nope.
They reactivated my account and added on years of increased and late fees and then report to the credit bureaus I was over two years delinquent causing my credit score to drop days away from closing on my new home. I called and negotiated a settlement payment. I made the payment and asked for a receipt to be faxed to the lender ASAP. They said no problem and it would be sent by morning. Nothing came through. I called again and they acted as if they did not know what I was saying. They told me it would be 48 to 72 hours. I explained that it was urgent and I needed the receipt now. After being on hold and transferred several time I get a "supervisor" that promises I will get the fax. Nothing!
I call back again and get the same clueless response as if they don't know what I was talking about. I get transferred four times and finally to a "supervisor" again. Now this guy tells me I have to wait until the payment clears before anything will be sent. I decide to check my bank account to see if the payment was pending or cleared and I don't see any payments. I call the bank and they said nothing was pending. So I call Capital One again to confirm the payment. They confirm the payment was made. I asked again for a receipt and the girl says she'd send it. Again nothing. Now it's 48 hours later and still no receipt or payment posted to my account. In the meantime I'm just hours away of losing the house. I have spoken to 8 people - 3 of which were "supervisors".

Totally inept, unprofessional and a waste of time. DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THESE PEOPLE! They falsely put a fraud alert on my card when I first got it. After 5 calls and sending them 5 forms of documentation (DL, SS card, address verification (2), a utility bill), and being on hold 45 mins each time, they still kept me waiting 3 MONTHS. I finally cut the card up and will be changing banks so I will be also withdrawing my significant savings. WILL NEVER DO BUSINESS WITH THEM AGAIN.

I complained to Capital One about their practices in 11/2015 and at that time told them to close my account and to send me a final bill. They sent me an email detailing the amount due in 11/2015, but did not close the account despite several back and forth online chats to do so. But they did, following these chats send the email of the total they said was due at the time. But did not close the account. So now they have been sending me email telling me they are going to charge off my account as it is 6 months overdue. And from my last filed complaint on here, they refused to send me a paper or email account of what went on. So all their correspondence is one sided basically except for email and the billing notices. People stay away from this bank. Worst company I have ever dealt with.

On or about November 15, 2015 I started the dispute process with Capital One in regards to office furniture purchased and damaged during the installation process. I told Capital One that I had attempted to resolve the issue with the merchant to no avail. The 3 transactional charges exceeded $50000. The dispute department, after I submitted photos and backup documentation, issued the dispute and credited back my account. Then the journey began.
The dispute department asked the merchant for their version. Merchant sent Capital One a copy of the one page offer sheet that they gave to my company and a copy of the material order sheet they had from the furniture manufacturer. Without notifying me, Capital One charged back my card and sent the merchant the money again. NEVER DID THEY NOTIFY ME. When a charge on my card was declined I called Capital One. Capital One claimed they had sent, via regular mail, notification of merchant response along with their documentation. WE HAVE NEVER RECEIVED THE DOCUMENTATION. Capital One said that by the time we found out it was TOO LATE to provide requested documentation to rebuff the merchant claim. We were one day late in finding out.
I sent them 200 pages of documentation, with photos, emails from experts in field stating the furniture was damaged and all correspondence we had to date with merchant. Capital One said they would try to dispute claim with Visa as a courtesy but since we didn't return information by their deadline they weren't sure the case would be reviewed. Capital One again took the money back from the merchant and returned it to our account. Capital One, 2 weeks later, returned to the merchant the funds, after telling me they had done everything they could do on our behalf, but the final determination was that our claim was not valid. I asked for a copy of the FINAL DETERMINATION and they told me there was nothing in writing. Capital One told me that when they went back to the MERCHANT for the second time to investigate the claim they determined the merchant was not at fault.
I asked Capital One if they took into account the EMAIL FROM THE MANUFACTURER ACKNOWLEDGING THE FURNITURE WAS DAMAGED. Capital One told me they took everything into account and the case was closed as far as they were concerned and the funds were going back to the MERCHANT. Capital One charged back funds to my account even though it put my card balance over its credit limit by $45000. I have requested the credit card account terms and conditions' document but have not received it as of yet. I have realized that the dispute process is so slanted toward the Merchant that Customer Protection is nothing more than an illusion within the Capital One Corporation.
Their entire basis for denying the claim is that the notification they sent via the regular mail, no signed receipt requested, never arrived and my response to the counterclaim was submitted late. They did me a courtesy to even continue to dispute case. I asked Capital One to send me the dispute process procedure and they refused. They stated they are not available to send to consumers. I asked Capital One for a power of attorney form so my attorney could speak to them. They refused. In closing, I can't believe that Capital One can treat their customers like this and that they are not in violation of the consumer protection regulations. My case, as well as many others, are perfect examples of how little protection consumers really have.

I disputed a large charge on a Quicksilver card. The company that made the charge responded with documentation that contained no names, no signatures and was not on company letterhead. I tracked down the company's address and found that it was a mail forwarding service. The company's website had false names for officers. Still Capital One took the side of this disreputable company and stuck us with the charge. Capital One is okay letting crooks be merchants.

I had a fraudulent charge 6 months ago that I disputed and it took 3 months and 6 phone calls averaging about 75 minutes each to get the fraudulent charge resolved. So I thought... Fast forward 2 months and Capital One decides to let the original merchant charge my credit card again??? These idiots at Capital One did not block the Merchant that was stealing money from me the first time they tried and let them charge my card again. I have 6 credit cards and have had over a 20 year credit history. I have never had an experience like this with not only a credit card company but any company in the world.

When I need a giggle I read ConsumerAffairs. I'm amazed that some others are amazed when banks act like banks, credit cards act like credit cards, ** people act like ** people, etc. "My card would default at 150 days no payment. I paid way before that - 122 days (**) and my account is still locked." You go over 90 days with no payment and you confused they closed your credit card. "I paid my bill like I normally do weeks early, but this time I paid on the due date at 8:30pm by phone, but the cut off is 8pm. I guess I'll eat the late fees. So much for customer service huh..." "I been a customer for 20+ years and didn't get a statement and forgot to pay bill and that charged me a late fee for their mistake and they restricted me using my card until I paid the $25 past due amount. What a sorry Bank." You didn't pay your bill that you knew is due every 30 days when you carry a balance. So you mad or upset???

Naively, I fell for a computer virus scam. I paid $449.00 to a company going by the name of SoftWeak. I find them online as Infotech SoftWeak. The business address does NOT exist on Google Maps, nor Bing Maps, and the phone number to call during business hours always leads to an answering machine with an "unprofessional" message. I have left a message for a call back and Capital One has left a message to call back to dispute the charge. No reply from this "company". Meanwhile, they obtained access to my computer (because of my naivete) and the local computer repair company found malware, keyloggers, viruses, etc. This was a BRAND NEW computer I ordered from Dell Computers... I had yet to use it online.
I called Capital One the very NIGHT SoftWeak conned me into giving up my Social Security Number AND my Credit Card number. I told them I felt I was the victim of Fraud. They agreed and had me file a Dispute. Since filing the dispute, Capital One has made me jump through hoops. They keep asking for things, such as a RECEIPT from SoftWeak for the charge. I was NEVER given one. Then they asked for the phone records to PROVE THAT I called SoftWeak to get my money back. I don't have phone records since the 2 calls were originated by 1) A Capital One Representative while I was on hold with the Credit Card Company, and 2) my daughter. I was on the phone with her while she dialed the SoftWeak phone number (obtained from online) in a 3-way call. My daughter lives 2 hours from me... So again, I do NOT have "proof" of the phone calls, but Capital One obviously has "proof" of their attempt to contact SoftWeak.
I've also given a copy of the requested repair invoice to Capital One, along with a statement verifying the computer had verified malware, key loggers, viruses on it, from my local computer repair service. With all of this information, Capital One has now sent a letter stating that because I couldn't give them phone records, nor a receipt from SoftWeak, that they could NOT HELP ME!! This Credit Card company is a TRAVESTY!!! I have been a victim twice... but, I am not giving up and will be "doubling down" with Capital One. Meanwhile, because of their HORRIBLE customer service, I am cancelling all of my Capital One credit cards and contacting the Federal Trade Commission, along with writing further reviews of Capital One and their horrible handling of this incident.

I opened a credit card account with Capital One in February 2016 for my wife due to their multiple offers with 15 month 0% APR. So, I opened the account and she did a lot of purchases and boom, next month she was charged an interest. Called Capital One and spoke with multiple agents and nothing happened. So next day called again and insisted that I want to speak a with a manager. When I spoke with this branch manager, he was kinda lying that they can't find anything on their system about any offers and he told me that they will do an investigation. And it turned out that they didn't do anything but just let it go for the sake of their company.

I have been using Capital One credit since 2010 and never even once late on the payments. Last year, they close my accounts for some stupid reason stating "non-consistency of personal and family use" which I was so angry. I even went to their branch to try to get a straight answer, but you got the same saying all over again and they even told you that you could re-apply after 90 days. I thought I was done with them.
Fast forward, on April 26 2016, I was in need to some business credit card and happened to receive a Capital One spark card invitation letter. I thought why not, could be nice have some extra credit limit for my business. BTW, my credit score is 750+ and I applied both of my personal and business cards with Capital One. I got an approval right after I submit the application, Personal for 10000 and business for 12000.
Today I got the new business card and called them to activate. They told me there is no information in the system then transferred me over the some "special department" to explain to me why. Got the same old answer as I got last year due to the inconsistency. I was like WTF, then I checked my personal card, same thing happened, they closed it without notice, not even a email.
I really do not care about they close my accounts that much because they have right to do so. The part I am so angry about is if they using the same reason to close my account or to do business with them, they should not approved my application at the first place. Look what happened now, my credit score gonna drop because of the 2 inquiries and the reports gonna look bad because it is gonna show my credit length less than few days which they kept telling me there is nothing they could do when I called them about this. This is such a ** company when it comes to trouble with them and the customer service ain't gonna do nothing. If you really need some good credit card, there are plenty of the companies out there. Avoid these **!

My wife has had a Cap 1 credit card for several years, and there have been no problems until last December. Since then they have been delaying depositing the checks I have been sending them for as much as two weeks after they post them to my account. As a result, Cap 1's collection department starts calling me to ask where is the check, and trying to get me to sent another check. April 2016 is typical. On April 3, I made an e-payment through my bank, USAA Federal Savings Bank, to Cap 1 with an arrival of April 13. The due date was April 19. USAA mailed the check to them on April 8. I found out later in the month that they had posted it to my wife's account on April 11. But at about same time the collections department started calling every day asking where my payment was. I told them that they should have received it by April 13, but they said that they did not.
The calls continued for 10 days and suddenly stopped. It was at this point I checked the payment history on my wife's account and found that the check that they didn't get was posted to her account on April 11. The check was finally cashed and returned to my bank on April 27. I do not know this is a lack of internal communications at Cap 1, which is hard to believe with today's technology, or they were trying to get me to pay twice. My word to anyone facing this problem is to check the payment history on their online account to make sure the check has not been posted. Second, if the check has not been posted, and you decided to send another check, stop payment on the first check. It will cost you $30 or more, but it better than having your payment being taken out twice and throwing your budget out of whack. As soon as my wife's account is paid off, it will be cancelled. I would not recommend doing business with Cap 1.

This has been a disappointment from the first attempt to apply for a personal credit card. Went through the arduous task of providing all the required information to apply for a card. I received confirmation that a card would come. It didn't. I called, and they said they never received my information. Had to reapply via phone. Attempting to pay my first bill early, they entered the wrong checking number. It was not my mistake. The correct information was in their system.
This took two days to square away. Today I got a call at 7am asking me for personal information to verify that I'm the person who owns the card, or my card would be "restricted". I said no! I've had the card for over a month, put (and paid off) $1400 and just now they want to verify that I'm me? Today, I tried to pay off the rest of the balance, and I was given an error message wouldn't allow me to pay. There is no way to email them… To complain I must write a "letter". What's that? This is 2016. So, I thought I'd just take this public. SO Very Disappointed!

So I placed an order with a company, except this company charged me 2 different transactions which were not approved by me. It was after the store hours were closed. So I contacted Capital One Fraud Department, waited 30 mins to talk to someone. The girl told me that she could do nothing until the transaction cleared, and that I have to call back tomorrow when it cleared. I said that I called to notify them that this transaction is not approved and that I wished to dispute the transaction.
The girl on the phone, kept repeating herself with a great amount of attitude and hostility, that she could not help me until the transaction posted, yet the transaction is counted against my line of credit and they could not flag it as a challenged transaction until I called back in the morning. So the transaction counts against me, yet I can't do anything until it clears. I asked to speak to her supervisor. She said her supervisor could not help me, and she abruptly said if there was nothing else, she thanked me for calling Capital One, and hung up before I could answer.

Capital One was using a credit tracker formula to give me a number for my credit score. I recently signed in online to make a payment on my account and to track my credit score. Capital One recently changed their credit score program. So when I checked my score this time, it HAD DROPPED by 85 points, which is bogus because my credit hasn't been impacted negatively. When I called a customer service rep and told him about this, he didn't know why the score should have changed so much. Neither do I! Overall, Capital One is just another seductive credit card usurer that preys on those who don't have money. Can anybody tell me why it isn't considered usurious and illegal by the Federal Government for a company to be able to charge 24% interest on borrowed money? I think it is outrageous!

I just got off from one of their "fraud" account managers earlier in the person of David. I am a victim of fraud, notified their bank of what happened, cancelled my card as well as deactivated my online account, submitted all the needed documents twice (although, every time I called them they told me I needed to resubmit the same documents over and over), and yet the issue has not been resolved after a month or so of calling them. They told me, after several attempts of relating the same incidents, that my account will be restricted indefinitely because they needed to get in touch with the person who is the scammer by the way!!! I'm not sure if they know what they are supposed to do or understand the issue at all. Oh well, good luck but I'm done with this company.

Had a scam committed on me and over 450 other people by the same company. I immediately alerted Capital One. They stopped payment initially and then reinstituted it. I was to prove the item was not worth the value that was sent to me, which would be impossible. I showed them in all sorts of ways that this company was a scam. Sent them all of the proof that I could acquire from the web and also my statements was well at 12 pages of other people's complaints. Did not receive anything but the bill. What a ** outfit and on top of it all, then I discovered that they have the LOWEST CONSUMER SATISFACTION AVAILABLE. BEWARE. They are not consumer friendly in the slightest. I canceled my account.

I have credited a sum of money into a beneficiary account holder of Capital One. Transfer was successful, but the holder claims that his account is being investigated by the bank and all funds were seized. Despite numerous attempts to call them and even by post, there has been no response from the bank at all. At a minimum, professionally, they should have at least attempted to reach out to me since I was the one that the funds were being transferred. Voice calls were useless as they would not entertain me since I am not their customer. Numerous mails sent by post went quiet. How could anyone have any trust with banks since no one would bother to explain what is happening? At the end of the day, every single penny is hard-earned and for this to just vanish into thin air is very painful when all I did was to comply with the procedures of transferring funds internationally.

I opened this account with the intent of adding a "Just In Case" standby for incidentals. Little did I know, I would go through trouble with the account just 1 1/2 months in! Making sure I don't go over 100.00 total with a Credit line of 500.00, I spent 92.00 total in my second month with this card. Keeping up with all of my financials and making payments early, as my due date for payment was May 8th, I made the payment at 8pm on April 20th (2 weeks early) which is a practice I use on all of my credit accounts. Well since I had a little overage, I decided to round up to 95.00. What I read in the agreement was that monies submitted after business hours would post the next day. Ok, that's fine. I know my money is in the account. So came 1:30pm April 21. No posting!
So I call Capital One Customer Service to get Shan. Shan informed me that my payment may take as long as 12 midnight April 21 to post. I stated, "That's not what I read in your agreement." While I said this to her more than once, it never went answered. So I asked her to speak to a supervisor. The supervisor tried to convince me (While I was looking at my online account!) that the payment has been posted. I stopped her in her words and said, "Wait, let me refresh the page to see if I'm wrong!" And of course, the payment was still "Processing".
I then asked the Supervisor, "Why would my payment take almost 48 hours to post when in your agreement it states clearly that it will post the following business day?" She said, like Shan, it is a possibility that it will not post until 12 midnight. I said, "Ma'am, this is the same thing your other person told me and just in case you aren't aware, you're on this phone because her answer was not good enough!" She kept trying to tell me that the payment has posted while adding that "It might post at 12 midnight." I got disgusted and told her, "Never mind, when this payment posts, I'm just going to close the account!" Which I did today!! Poor service, lies, and deceit. Not a good look for a large company like this!!

Never ever bank from this company. In fact, they should not be considered a company with their lousy employees. Do not bother faxing them documents because every time they will tell you they did not receive any documents. More surprisingly, they will tell you they received the documents and tell you one month later that they did not get any (of course, you will have to actually call the office because they never notify on anything). Do not bother waiting for a check to be delivered because there is going to be some kind of miscommunication between departments in Capital One. Their employees are clumsy as it can get. I cannot believe they have not been fired yet. Shame on you, Capital One. I am looking for a lawyer to sue your miserable company.

I was a loyal customer of Capital One credit cards. I have an excellent credit score and have maintained good relations with all my creditors for 20+ years. My issue is when I moved, they cut off my card. They tell me a story about a "severe fraud issue" where someone called into the account pretending to be me and "knew the secret questions". To validate who I was, I needed to provide 3 forms of ID (license, SSN card, and 3rd form of ID). I don't have a SSN card so they tell me the only way to re-instate is to validate with a 3rd party bank. I go there, have my personal bank call the card company, they call back at the branch and ask for me, etc. to do the validation. They verify I am who I proclaim. To "prevent this" going forward, they give me a code to give them.
Roll forward a month. The same issue happens again. They tell me it's a severe fraud issue and need the 3 IDs. This is after I provided the correct code and the correct secret answers to questions. This is all after waiting 7 minutes and being hung up on. Then when I call back, another 10 minutes to get to a person. Then 20 minutes on hold while the supervisor does something in the background. Then he comes back and tells me the above. I asked for a supervisor at that point. He said there's no one there now and I could call back on Monday (this is Saturday night). I told him to cancel my card and hung up after a few vulgarities.

I have had several checking and savings accounts with Capital One for years. As our 6 kids have gotten older and needed the services of a financial institution we have helped them open their accounts with Capital One as well. I have owned several businesses and did all my banking with Capital One. Now we are medically retired and have closed all our credit card accounts and was only using check cards. During one of our visits to a Capital One Bank to replace our check cards so that we can combat fraud by getting new numbers on occasion we were asked if we would like to apply for a credit card. I initially refused but the bank employee persisted. I reluctantly agreed after I was informed about the cash back option if I paid my mortgage with the card and then paid the card. Everything went as planned for the first months payment from the home computer once we had help setting it up through Capital One customer service.
While we were out of town we didn't have a computer so we had to install another Capital One App to access the credit card side to make payments with our phone. This was all new to us and separate from the banking app we were accustomed to using. We called for assistance when we first tried to access the credit card side from our computer because we could not access it even though it was from the same bank. While on vacation we made a payment using the new app from our phone for the first time. We didn't notice that an old Capital One bank account was dug up and linked to the credit card and the payments were being drafted from this account. We made several payments while on vacation using the app.
When we got back home the account switched back to the correct account we initially had linked to draft from. We never caught the flaw until we were notified about fraud on our account. All our accounts were frozen and we were threatened with fraud. The reason this happened is because the app linked a old account that I was removed from 2 years ago. I never knew the account number or expected to ever be linked back to this account. I admit our ignorance for not noticing the accounts switched. My argument is the account should have NEVER been an option for linking. As stated earlier we have several accounts with Capital One and if the option even came up to link accounts we assumed it was one of ours and not a account I was removed from accessing for over 2 years.
The bank argues that it was not possible for this to happen. How many people know all their bank account numbers by heart? It's even more challenging if you have several accounts and loss of eyesight while trying to read a phone. We have NEVER had an overdraft or late payments for any of these accounts. We have to admit that we got lazy and relied on the electronic notifications of activity and balances. We never received any form of notifications informing us about the switching of the accounts. The bank has been unbearable during our attempts to reverse the drafts and correct the problems. They really like to play the blame game and threaten with fraud. There is 3 times the money in the account to reverse the wrong payments. Once this is settled I will close all my families accounts and spend my retirement blogging. The internet is a beautiful thing.

We have checked the account and there is no new charges for years. Of course we are paying it down slowly. Very slowly. The customer service person that I called, insisted I give her some specific information, i. e. last four of my social, etc. I gave some info then became very suspicious and told her I would not tell her any more info until she told me what the "fraud" consisted of. She would not tell me. I have come to the conclusion that this entire exchange was just a ruse to get us/me to sign up for Capital One's "credit protection" plan. Or their payment protection plan.
This is scandalous. Insinuating some fraud is happening to make me think I need their extra services. This company should be monitoring their systems at all times for fraud and keeping all of our info secure on their end. If they are unable to do so, they need to invest in better software and anti-hacking strategies, not asking their customers for extra money each month to pay for security that should already be in place.

After reviewing posted comments I thought I'd add my two cents. I set up bank account information for credit card payment. Initiated payment for two weeks prior to due date. Cap1 emails me stating my bank refused payment because there was no account at my bank with that number. All payment rejections cause your bank account to be blocked from further use, even if the rejection is a Cap1 transmission error, which they seldom admit. Thought I might have entered wrong numbers so went online at Cap1 to resubmit. Cap1 site rejected my resubmission stating no such account existed (which let me know I had given correct account numbers originally because even a one digit difference would have allowed entry of new banking info.)
Hmmm... so called Cap1 since there was still 7 days to make payment. Rep took bank account number to accept phone payment but account was BLOCKED by Cap1's computer so I paid full amount with the debit card attached to same bank account. Rep said I needed to talk with supervisor to unblock account. Supervisor wanted me to get letter from bank for account verification and an extensive list of other admissions that dug further than questions on a post 9/11 passport application. "Baloney" I said, "it was your computer's transmission error!" Offered to send screen shot of my account activity to prove I had funds available, acct was in good standing and the debit card payment had already posted to the same bank account. Spent 2 hrs on phone that day and ended up being disconnected. Phoey!
Called 2 days later said I wanted bank account removed from Cap1 "not valid account" list, that transmission noise had voided submission NOT my bank's refusal or wrong account information. Got run around, explained same logic to new supervisor who started the "get a letter from your bank rigmarole" which I rebutted with "let's call my bank and if CAP1 is wrong you issue me a $50 credit for the 3 hours this has now taken of my time". Cap1 supervisor placed conference call to my bank who proceeded to verify the accuracy of routing and account numbers. That the account was open and active. That the bank had never received a request for payment from Cap1. That I had more than sufficient funds 4 days before and after the alleged Cap1 payment submission to cover payment. And NO the bank would not fax a letter to Cap1's back office about my account! But would provided a unique reference number for the call.
Yikes it was too simple (why didn't the first supervisor I spoke to suggest we resolve the matter in this manner? It was so easy.) And 3 hours later there's a $50 credit on my Cap 1 account and my bank account number is no longer blocked for use as a payment source. Insufficient pay for 3 hours work but better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick! Do the obvious is my conclusion. Cut the debate and conference call with a verifying source. They want to tie you up, maybe you'll get weary (73% probability that you will) and they get the overcharges, the extra interest, those little revenue producing sums that roll over into millions of profit. And you also won't fight so hard the next time... Well I was lucky today and the problems ARE compounded by the foreign call centers, English as a second or third language but American dollars are the REAL language!
Do the unexpected. PROVE IT but first ask Cap1 "if I can prove to you that this was Cap1's problem and NOT mine or my banks' problem, what are you going to give me for my time?" Don't cuss, stay calm and keep focused. They are not prepared for that strategy... After all they're the company for second or third tier credit which makes your claims suspect from the first moment. Understand the problem before you seek a solution and remember they ARE NOT on your side, profit is their reward. They are probably no better or worse than the rest of the financial vultures... Don't take it personal. Make 'em give you something back.

So again I spent time on the phone with representatives. This time the representative told me that the person I spoke with before was not trained to help me. When I expressed my disappointment with everything, the rep proceeded to tell me how fragmented Capital One is and the groups do not really talk to each other.

The double charge was due to the cancellation of a return flight from Phoenix for my wife and me by American Airlines, when all that was needed was a change of a flight to Phoenix. After an attempt to resolve this double charge for tickets with American Airlines, by phone and by letter, I contacted Capital One Visa. Capital One requested, in a Feb. 23, 2016 letter, a written explanation of the problem, along with a copy of the letter to American Airlines, by March 14. This information was sent by me to the Transaction Support Center at Capital One Visa in a Feb. 27 letter. I received a letter dated March 4 on March 10 stating that our letter lacked all of the previously requested information needed, and that Capital One was reapplying the charges and closing the case.

AVOID THIS COMPANY AT ALL COSTS! Over the course of my 6 month relationship with Capital One I have had issue after issue pop up. Each time they admit to poor communication internally and with me, but they refuse or are unwilling to resolve any of the dozen issues their ineptitude has caused. They finally sent me to "Brian" at the "Office of the President". They always touted the title like that alone should impress me. Only results impress me and I got none. The degree at which they have abused my trust and constantly lied to me is criminal. At the end of it all they've taken out double payments without my permission, called me multiple times for disputed claims, and made promises to return calls that never came. I'd rate them a 0/5 stars if that was possible.

On June 20, 2015 I called Capital One to close our account. We paid our remaining balance by phone, closed our account, and cut up our card. In October, we received a call telling us our account was past due. Concerned, we called back and were informed that “due to a system error” our account remained open. Not only did our account remain open, it was now past due as the result of monthly recurring charge set up against the account. Upon calling Capital One, they were very helpful, apologized for the mistake, reversed all late fees and finance charges and also indicated that the past due would not go against our credit record.
Fast forward to January 2016, and upon running our credit to begin the mortgage qualification process we were in shock at our low credit scores. Upon reviewing the report, the low score was due primarily to the 30-day late payment posted against my record from Capital One. Confused and frustrated, I opened an investigation with Cap One, who was no longer helpful and indicate that they had no proof that our account was closed and that we were liable.
Ultimately, after 5 weeks of constant follow up, supplying phone records, sending registered letters, and filing disputes with the credit bureaus, Capital One continued to validate the late payment posting to us and to the credit bureaus. After continued calls to Capital One and the Consumer Financial Bureau we received a call from a woman at the Executive office. She listened to our story, seemed reasonable and indicated she would look into it. I faxed all the information regarding the issue again and hoped for a positive outcome. No luck. They still claimed that the account was never closed, and they had no phone records to substantiate our claim.
Having no other alternatives, I tracked down and hired a lawyer in Virginia who has jurisdiction over this case. The lawyer sent a demand letter to Capital One and the Credit Unions to remove the fraudulent late payment. I hoped that once the Legal Compliance department in Virginia received the letter we be able to work through this issue. After several more weeks without being contacted by Capital One Legal, we received a letter from our neighbor from Capital One, which was addressed to us, but did not have the correct apartment number on the address.
Upon reviewing the letter, Capital One confirmed they reviewed the phone call request for us to close the account, but stated that “due to a system error” our account remained open. They also provided a copy of a letter dated August 11 indicating our account was not closed due to an error on their part. I was registered to receive electronic communications and never received that August 11 letter, which also was sent to the wrong address.
After calling Capital One back and explaining all the issues again, including the issue with the mailing address, under a last hope that they would see that this late payment was more their fault than ours, they still held firm and indicated we were responsible for the charges even though those charges would never have occurred without the system error that they have admitted to. You would think going through all of this effort with Capital One would have convinced them to correct the issue due to their mistake, instead, we feel we are being targeted by Capital One for a reason we don't understand. We really believe Capital One is in very corrupt company that downright lies and utilizes fraudulent practices to hide their mistakes. Please read this and never bank nor apply for credit with Capital One, they are the most corrupt company I have ever dealt with.

My card number was stolen and my card was placed on hold by Capital One. The funds were credit back to my account but there is a hold on funds for the amount of the fraud claim amount. I have been using this card everyday because of the cash back. I put funds in this card to eat and to have gas back and forth to work. Now I have no money to eat or put in gas. I contacted them and they state it could take up to 90 days to resolve.
I trusted this card with all of my money and now I'm having to scrap to eat and put gas in my car. The funds were credited back and an avail cred was shown. Within an hour, the funds were gone and when I called to ask what was going on, I was told it's still under investigation. When I told them that I was using card for my daily expenses, I was told "I don't know what to tell you". Wow! I thought Capital One cared about the customer. I see now they don't. You are just a number. I will NO longer trust this card with all of my funds. I was spending approx. $1200 every month with this card. I would hate to have $1000 stolen and have to WAIT until it's investigated to have access to the monies. I'm VERY disappointed. They simply don't care. They won't get my business anymore!

On 2/18/16 I called to pay off the balance on my credit card of $3400. The representative took down the routing and checking account numbers of the bank account I was using and issued a confirmation code. My bank said the funds would be available by midnight the same day and I thought all was well. On 2/24 I went online to look at my bank account and lo and behold the funds had not been taken out by Capital One! What the heck! I called Capital One and they said the bank would not honor the withdrawal request because the Cap. One rep had said it was a savings account and my bank said they had no record of such a savings account... which was accurate as it was a checking account. I got on a three-way call with my branch manager and a supervisor at Cap One and the manager raised my daily withdrawal limit to cover the payoff amount which the supervisor heard.
Today is 2/25 and the funds are still in my bank! This time another supervisor at Cap One said the account had to be verified as being legitimate by my bank and that authorization had to be faxed on bank letterhead to Cap One!!! Now I'm looking at my checkbook as all this is going on and seeing the funds online! In addition, I've used this very same account to pay off another credit card with absolutely no problems. The fax was sent and Cap One said it would take 10 days (!) before I would receive a letter saying the account was now verified (and who knows if that is going to happen) and THEN AND ONLY THEN would I be able to pay off the damn card! Does this make any sense to anyone? My bank manager thought it was bizarre. I think it is insane and my husband thinks Capital One doesn't want me to pay off my account so they can continue to get interest and late fees from me.

My husband applied for a Capital One card to hold his credit further as we were hesitant because of the credit card sales pitch: you've been approved!! Well after tearing up several notices he decided to go ahead and apply as a way of extra income for the house. Well he was approved for $300 with an option to increase his credit after a few on time payments.
When the card arrived we used it for gas and food and drink at Disneyland. Well when we checked our account for the balance it was restricted with no access at all! We called Capital One and immediately they transferred us to the fraud department and they told us that they could not provide us with any information about the account! But they told us to file a police report and call all three credit bureaus. We asked them, "How can we call them if you can't provide us any information?" then they said that they would call us back which they did not because they are out of the friggin' country!
Outsourcing so they don't have to deal with your complaints. Then they told us that they are investigating and after the investigation if we want to use the card we would have to reapply because the account is fully closed but we would still have to make payments! Really?! You closed out account without any letter or warning but you want us to sent payments for the balance through the mail. We are so done with them. We feel it's a scam to apply for a higher credit amount because several days before they kept sending us pre-approved notices for the same card. Don't trust them!!

I was not helped by Capital One in resolving a dispute relating to a taxi ride from Pearl Harbor, Honolulu, HA, to a hotel in Waikiki, Honolulu, HA. I hired a taxi for 2 people at the Pearl Harbor Memorial taxi staging area, where you wait in line for the next available taxi (also waiting in a line at a curb designated for taxi pickups). It is approximately 12 miles, and usually takes about 30 minutes to complete the trip. When we arrived at the hotel to settle the charge with the taxi driver, I checked the amount, but neglected to notice that the amount was incorrect by one decimal point (it was rainy and somewhat dark at the time). It should have been $48.55, roughly the amount charged by a taxi company for this trip. I was charged $485.54. This is a math "error", and I disputed it with Capital One under my rights per the Fair Credit Billing Act.
I did not receive a receipt from the taxi company at the time of charge, or an email receipt as requested. I requested Capital One to request from the merchant the detailed copy of the meter information: the charge, mileage and time relating to the merchant transaction. Capital One refused to request this from the merchant, and closed the case without any further research, recommending that I deal directly with the vendor. I would be glad to do that, but I have no contact information on this taxi company, and going online to try to get such information was useless, no listing found. I will pay cash only for taxi rides from now on.

I have have had 2 Capital One credit cards over the past 20 years. The original card of many years had only a $400 credit line and they refused to raise it over the many years, while at the same time I had a newer Cap One card with a big line of credit. It made no sense. So I closed the one card - which was of no use to me as I travel internationally quite a bit and I could not even book a flight with the card! My remaining Cap One Quicksilver card which I still use and have been happy with - their customer service was always very helpful and they did a good job monitoring for fraud. But today I decided I wanted a card, a better travel card with Cap One which would also include air travel, so I decided to apply for the Venture One card. I don't pay yearly fees for a card unless there are some good perks as with my Marriott or IHG cards.
The Venture One card seemed perfect, no annual fee and I could use it with airlines as well as for hotels than my other hotel cards did not include. With a credit score of nearly 800, I had little doubt I would be approved. Boy was I wrong! No Venture card for me! Now I guess I should not be surprised given their past schizophrenic behavior regarding greatly varying credit limits from $400 on one card to I think my other limit is $15,000. It just may be that I am one of those 'dead-beats' - the one whom banks and credit cards make no money on as we pay our accounts in full monthly.
In fact on the application when it asked about how you pay your credit cards monthly, if you wanted checks to use for cash advances, and if I wanted to do a balance transfer - maybe it wasn't my high 700's credit score that got in the way of a new Venture card. I probably hadn't provided the responses they wanted in a new customer. The computer evaluating my application saw check marks in all the wrong places so my application got thrown out - I was a client they would never make money on. :-) So my recommendation to you, be a deadbeat. Pay your accounts in FULL! Many people in paying minimum payments monthly will never pay their accounts off and get out of debt. Be disciplined - stop paying all that interest to the banks, AND, there are better cards - though I still have not found the airline card I am happy with, I highly recommend the Marriott, IHG, and if you travel with pets - the La Quinta credit cards!

Rate my experience? I see the stars, but where are the little ** to the left? I recently maxed out my secured card limit to the cap of $3,000 on December 28th, just before the policy change that eliminated the additional deposits ability. I had to make several large deposits in a short period to achieve this in time before the change. So, about 10 days or so after every deposit I called to verify that everything was good, and never received a bad report back from the Capital Accounting department with whom I spoke. I verified that each of these calls were recorded and are reviewable. I also received a letter each time indicating that my limit was increased. This was the end of December (2015).
It is now February (2016) and I have been using my card without issue, up to $2,800 of the $3,000 cap. Suddenly, I attempt to purchase gas and the card is declined. I check online, and my account shows no avail credit. (What?!) It now suddenly shows my limit is $1,300 indicating that I am now considered over my limit by $1,500... I called to inquire about this and was told that my deposit was made on Dec 28th, and returned on Dec 31st. OK, so this creates a lot of questions, the biggest one is "Why?" I didn't request this, I made the deposit.
Additionally, why did Capital One still show that my deposit was good and continued to increase my limit another 10-12 days AFTER they believe to have returned my deposit. Also, why does my bank show NO record of a return from Capital One within the entire history of my account? I asked these questions along with many others. There has no answer for this, just the same old stuff. It shows it was returned on... blah, blah, blah, with no evidence that can be produced to verify it. Just a note on an account that can be made by any individual working within that department.
The biggest concern is that they say it was returned 2 days later, yet continued to process and validate this increase in credit limit even AFTER they are aware that they supposedly returned these missing funds. Needless to say, I have an appointment today with the Baker and McKenzie Law Offices, and based on the results I may remove my involvement with this company entirely if this is how they handle business.

The following is to make people aware of the abuse and level of professionalism from Capital One and a true David and Goliath story. First let me express that I understand procedures. They are placed in an act or a manner of proceeding in any action or process; conduct a particular course or mode of action, any given mode of conducting legal, parliamentary, or other business, the sequence of actions or instructions to be followed in solving a problem or accomplishing a task. Being that said that has not been the case with what I am about to explain.
We started a procedure of fraud identity with Capital One three months ago where they requested information concerning our Identity. On October 27, 2015 we had called Capital One concerning this issue and we sent all the required information that they asked for License or State I.D., Social Security Card and Proof of Address. Now here where it begins. After three days after uploading the Document to their page (which is the required time frame by Capital One to revise the Documents) they said they could not read them and we had to send them again. My mother as well sent them letters because she could not send them a utility bill since she does not pay the bills in the house, my Dad does. So they expressed can she get a bank statement and she replied yes, so she proceeded to get the bank statement from Harbor Bank which is her one of her Bank institutions.
We proceeded to upload the document and we waited the proper time for Capital One to return the call that they have evaluated the Document and processed it. Guess what, they did not. After the fifth day we decided to call Capital One and we spoke to 3 different Fraud reps that day and for some reason they did not get the Document and could not find it. So we proceeded to send the document again and be aware this is being uploaded through their link for uploads. We waited again 6 days and proceeded to call. Meanwhile through this whole process my mother is getting sick and worried cause of this situation.
My mother has been in this country for over 40 Years and has had cards from American Express to other bank credit cards and never had an issue with none of them. Always has paid on time and has paid all her cards off, has had Excellent Credit in this country and has never been treated this way by no company or human being. This is the reason she worried because knowing that she has never gone through something like this in her life and keep in mind I had expressed she is a sick woman and is not about the cards.
Capital one was contacted again and their answer was "we had not received it" again so at this point I got involved and expressed my anger (I'm Her Son) and the irresponsibility that they have shown to us. After speaking to different agents the document appeared, but again they said they could not accept the document because they were hard to read so they required for us to send these documents again. We decided to send the document from her other bank where we send the payments to Capital One. Well long story short we sent these documents over 25 times and calls to Capital One almost every day. We spoke to managers and called corporate several times and we kept getting transferred to fraud department. At one point the block was lifted but guess what it was put back on and that was because someone in corporate felt bad for us. The only reason it was lifted.
We finally thought this nightmare was over but no they put the hold back on and again be aware we continued paying the cards. Beside it being BLOCKED this whole ordeal went on for three Months and 2 days so Capital One made a decision after sending documents over and over being on the phone for 8 Hours at one point trying to find the cause of the problem they cancelled the cards and said they did not want us as a client.
I started investigating and asking why? We found out there's this investigator called Vince that never called us, never contacted us and all he did was talk to the managers and agents not to open, never the cards due to the fact remember as I said before after the first month I had gotten upset and fed up with the situation because looking at my mother cry and not knowing why she is being treated this way that's when I had to speak my mind to them.
Mr. Vince is an investigator at Capital One that treated us like scum of the earth judged us and made it a point due to the fact that I let him know what he was doing was wrong through his managers and agents. The man was a complete and total racist. He not only cancelled my Mom's Cards but everyone that had her address in the house and had a Capital One Card along with the last Manager that we spoke to.
Now I would like to let everyone to know we're from Dominican Republic and all of my mom's kids were born in the USA, the country that gave me the opportunity to work for a Great Company and let me Study and gave my parents the Dream of having three homes, and to know that our USA we have people like this is sad. I want to pledge and ask for everyone and these movie stars that promote this card to know what they are promoting and to make sure they know whose money they take for sponsoring a product.
I hope Mr. Fairbank gets this letter and know the kind of staff he has working for him and the way they treat his customers. I also know it's tough times and being approved for a Card can help but like it happened to us it can happen to you, and to those employees that work there and feel by kissing up to people like Vince which in another statement that I will publish with the names and I.D. numbers of the people that treated us like this and spoke to us rudely. Learn to know whats right from wrong!!! Because if he does not care for the people who get him his pay check he does not care about you. Stop kissing up to people like that, he knows that it's impossible to speak to anyone in a high level position in corporate so he abuses the system and knows that the company is too big for a simple client to do anything that would shake them, and it may be true but beware.
I hope my message gets out there. People learn who Capital One has working for them and stop using their cards because besides what they did to us I stated that I would be doing this and the manager answered "do what you want." I'm not in no way upset at Mr. Fairbank because I know that he has no knowledge of what is going on in his company. So Vince I am going to make sure that you exist in that company and that you are a horrible employee and you or the managers that kiss up to you don't deserve to work there. Capital One deserves better. My mother is the most responsible person and taught us those same values. I am sad because I thought that Capital One was what we wanted in our wallets.

A bit of history. I currently have 2 cards from Capital One. My longest standing card has been open for well over 10 years! In that time being a customer of this company, I have never had a missed or late payment or gone over my credit limit. I carry 2 other credit cards with significantly lower interest rates and higher credit limits.
Several times, I have called inquiring about a APR decrease as both cards have an APR of 22.9%. Every time, except this last, I get the usual response. "We do not currently have any offers available with a lower interest rate." The last call they were able to offer a 7-month promotional 20.9% APR on purchases. In my opinion, that is still beyond unacceptable and does nothing to impact the interest on the current balances of each card. The last attempt, after getting this offer, I pushed harder and moved on to a supervisor from their call center in Richmond, VA. While understanding my situation, he went on to explain that all APR's and offers are computer generated and NO ONE person can do more than what the system tells them.
The threat of account cancellation means nothing to them. I listed out my options to them as (1) A balance transfer to another credit card that has a lower interest rate, or (2) A debt consolidation loan through my bank. Either option has the same end result. The balances will be paid off and accounts closed. A perfect account history and longevity apparently has 0 sway with them. While closing these cards out will make me take a hit on my credit, it's well worth it. I have plenty of other low balance offers available to me through other banks. There's no reason they should not be able to offer a competitive rate to a loyal customer. I take that back. Greed is their number one reason.

I've had a Capital One Platinum card since the mid 90's. Never had a problem charging with it, but they really stick it to you every way they can. A few examples: once they received a payment late because of a bank error, no fault of mine. I spent a couple hours on the phone with both my bank and Capital One, they both declined to speak to each other directly. In the end, nothing got resolved, and I ended up with a late charge AND an APR increase!
Example two: I disputed a strange overseas charge. It was less than $7.00. Capital One promptly cancelled my card and reissued a new one, which took 12 days to arrive! If they had sent it priority mail (an envelope with a stamp, just like you and I do), it would have taken 2-3 days. Example three: I completely paid off a four-figure balance, so they raised my APR. Example five: after all this time and money I've given them, they say I'm not eligible for any reward points, airline miles, or any other benefits. And by the way, all their customer service is in India.

I enrolled our company in Capital One's Business Credit Card program. In order to activate the cards I called the 800 number noted on the sticker. After the first call which consisted of being transferred 3 times and then being put on hold (I hung up after 8 minutes) I called back and was transferred twice more then a very rude service provider who argued with our company's owner and then hung up on him. We've decided to cut the cards up and not even try to activate them. No need to open an account with a company who couldn't even activate its own cards without a struggle. We never got far enough in any conversation to have a reference number for this issue.

My spouse is serving in the military and deployed off and on. I am in charge of the finances. We paid off three Capital One cards on my spouse account due to problems with them not adjusting interest rates. When faxed the info asked by the company also because we had always paid on time and never got any credit increases and were told we never would. They did take care of that issue quickly and nicely refunding the finance charges. During the holiday time we decided to used one of the Capital One cards with no balance. When we did it was denied. We called the company and found out all three cards were closed due to inactivity and the company never informed us they were going to just close them.
The cards we had were not expired. We just had zero balances. As when deployed for a year you tend to not use your credit cards. SO they said they would send a card out but the balance would be only 500 versus the higher balance on the original card we had they closed. Same for the second card. Basically having to apply again? There are and have never been any late payments to them or any other company on my credit. Also this caused a hard hit just trying to reopen cards that we had no idea were shut off. When you have it on file that a service member has cards with you they are paid off and have not been used it would be considerate to keep in mind deployments and training and contact the person before just shutting off the cards.
Needless to say this made the score go down because it was like opening up a whole new card. Unfortunately I also have an issue with a Capital One. We do move and contact everyone when we do including the USPS, even doing change of address an extra 6-12 months after the initial COA to make sure we get our mail. My spouse got so mad when they closed his accounts. He closed one himself probably hurting our credit more. Just so sick and tired of them dealing with trying to keep my spouses credit and bills paid off while gone. We both just have had a terrible time with them and will be done with them for good. Also when I called the fraud dept on my personal issue a few times I was left on hold for about an hour. With no resolution.

The following is my opinion based upon actual experience. Addressing a problem is similar to 'one step forward' then 'eight steps backward'. All personnel are undertrained, inexperienced, and convert simple problems into major problems that always take dozens of phone calls and hours devoted to complete resolution. They tell you one thing and then do another. They lie when it is convenient. After weeks of 46 phone calls and appx 7 hours of my time, I closed my accounts, they even screwed that up, failing to close my online/bills pay account, so more problems with returned checks due to their failing to close my online acct. If you want these kind of problems and enjoy dealing with incompetent people, this is your ticket. My replacement bank which I will not name, has done everything correctly, all communications are exacting, precise, and without additional problems. Everyone answering their phones are skilled, trained, and polite.

I am severely disappointed as to how poorly Capital One has recently treated my matter with regard to an honest mistake in a real life situation. Been a good standing customer with Capital One for few years. Never had a single late. Always paid my entire balance with each payment. In March of 2015, I had reported a lost card. I was told a replacement was to be sent within a week or so. As April came and went, I didn't remember to follow up with Capital One since they've never sent a replacement card. I also, that month of April didn't log onto my account to make a payment because I had not made a single physical charge all month.
Unbeknownst to me, I received notice from the 3 credit bureaus that I have been reported to be 30 days late on May 10th. Immediately calling Capital One and explaining to them what had happened, they responded that a charge came in from a rental car company for a rental I made in March and a second charge they originally missed at that time, now charging my account in April. I explained to the cust serv supervisor that this was not a typical scenario where a customer paid his bill late. I honestly didn't know there was a bill. Thereby, it isn't fair to hit me with a over 30 day late, given the circumstances. Especially, since from day one, I have a stellar track record with Capital One for paying on time.
I was told that I should take it up with the credit bureaus and there is nothing that Capital One will do since it's not their error. I asked the Terell, the supervisor, what he'd do in my shoes, if he had a credit score of 740 that tanked down 100 points to 650 due to this "late reporting". Terell agreed with me that it was wrong but "the computer generates these and we can't do anything". SO I asked, "Who can?" He said my only option is to send a letter to a PO Box tagged "General Correspondence". I've banked with many, many banks over the years. The level of service here at Capital One is Clearly HORRIBLE. Instead of helping people build their credit, they defame their credit worthiness.
I will now have to hire an attorney to file a suit which proves my that through technicality, the charge shouldn't have been made and thus the report was erroneously made by capital one. Heaven only knows what grief I still have ahead of me as I take on this battle with a company that clearly doesn't care about their customers or a sound reputation. I have turned to Consumer Affairs as an advocate in a slew of agencies that I now have to involve to try and get resolve on the matter.

I have been a credit card holder with Capital One (CO) since 2008 - nearly 8 years. I have a credit score over 700. I haven't ever missed payments or made late payments. Every month I pay an amount above the balance due. Some months, double the balance due. In October, I paid nearly $550 on the account. I have been trying to receive a credit line increase since August 2015 after realizing that I have had the card over 7 years and have only received one increase of $500 back in 2011. My other credit card has a $13,000 limit. Both requests were denied. I received letters stating the reason as "your average monthly payment has been too low," which is false.
After receiving the second letter, I called CO to dispute the credit line increase denial. I spoke with customer service representative, Daniel - **. He reviewed my payments and admitted that they were always above the payments due, sometimes significantly so. However, I was told that there was "nothing that could be done" because the credit line increases are handled solely by the computer system and no human can override the computer's decision. I asked to speak someone above him and was told that there is no one above him. He said my only recourse was to send in a letter to a P.O. Box.
I am shocked at this terrible customer service after being a loyal customer for almost 8 years. It is preposterous that there is "nothing that can be done" about a computer system's arbitrary and INCORRECT reasoning/decision. It is extremely unfair and wrong that I am being denied a credit line increase for a blatantly false reason and no one at CO will do anything about it. CO is a TERRIBLE company that is clearly cheating their customers and does not value them at all.
I would like someone from Capital One (preferably at the executive level - NOT a customer service representative who thinks he is CEO) to contact me and resolve this issue. I would like a credit line increase that is appropriate given that I haven't received one other than in 2011 for $500. I would like an apology from the corporation. I would like the corporation to formulate a better process for handling credit line increase requests for their customers as the customer service representatives are completely unknowledgeable and apparently have their hands tied as to the help they can provide.

Capital One is a horrible company. They lie to anyone to get the attention off of themselves and onto the consumer. My credit report is showing 5 late payments, 1 60 day and 1 90 day. I disputed this information with Capital One and the credit bureaus SEVERAL times. Every time I dispute it with the credit bureaus they tell me Capital One is reporting the late payments. So I contacted Capital One, more than 10 times. Every time I ask them to confirm that my account has no late payments nor does it have a delinquent status they do so and I print out the chat if it's online.
I have submitted this document with their confirmation several times to every company for their review and they still tell me Capital One is reporting the late payments. I filed a complaint with the CFPB against Capital One and a couple hours later I got a call from a representative apparently from the corporate office and she is going to "personally" handle my case and "will surely fix" what's happening.
It's been 2 days since she called and I have heard nothing nor have my credit reports changed. I have been trying to fix my credit reports since Aug 2015. Those 5 late payment remarks on my credit report are absolutely killing my credit and any chance I have at credit. I had around an 800 credit score until Capital One came into my life. Now, I barely get over the 600 mark and I don't even apply for loans because I always come back as being "seriously delinquent". I haven't even graduated college and my credit is beat. Horrible company. I would not recommend them even if they're the only company who will give you credit. DON'T DO IT.

Capital One allowed an online company to charge my credit card without my authorization and after my explicit demand that the company cease charging me and that they cancel my account.

Capital One refused to block payment to this company when I asked, which would have solved the problem. They said I could file a complaint to have the charges reversed. So I filed a complaint with Capital One, and, at first, Capital One credited me for the charges, but when the online company countered with lies (which I refuted absolutely with written documents showing I had ordered them to stop two months earlier), Capital One cancelled my credits and charged me in full.
This online company has had many charges of fraud against them, and I provided evidence to Capital One. But Capital One refused to protect me against this fraud. First I had to cancel my credit card number to keep the online company from continuing to charge my account without my authorization, and finally I have cancelled my Capital One account altogether.

About three years ago I was offered a Capital One banking card. I was given a limit of at least $400 to start out with and diligently spent that limit up each month in full and paid it off in full so that maybe my credit line would increase and it might boost my credit score. Everything was going so well but I did call customer service at least twice a month to make sure I was paying on time or slightly before the deadline.
I was living in the city of Chicago at the time and that was where my banking card was issued to me. I then decided to tour the United States with my two pets and I was combining work with pleasure and booking hotel stays using my card only pay for incidentals or rooms. My credit line was increased to $2500 seven months ago which really helped my credit. I did not ever have any reason to complain but most of the time my main banking branch would not have a location in every city I visited so I started sending Western Union payments to my Capital One card and everything was fine and up to current on my balance. I repeat I kept everything current and was never late.
Without any warning on December 14th my card was shut down forever. I did not know this of course as no one from the customer service department sent me any emails or even bothered to call me. I found out by accident this Friday night and no one would tell me why. They wanted me to call the executive department. I asked them this morning why they chose to shut my card down with a balance I owed them and they said my card was shut down because I was not using my card for "personal reasons and household items." I was livid and I told her that I have been paying for hotel costs, pet food and restaurants and all these were personally related items and not related to business but she did not care about me and guess what? They do not care if they hurt your credit and they can shut your card down for any reason without just cause which is a violation of your civil liberties.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT KIND OF REPTILIAN ENERGY THIS IS but if Capital One did this to me and ruined my credit without caring they will do this to you no matter how good your track history. Apparently they do not want you to use your card for travel. Do not accept a card if you get it in the mail. They are deceitful. Look at all these one star reviews. YOU have been warned.

I never used the card and didn't plan too. Now, four months later I checked that email (it's an old one I rarely use) and they say my bill is due. I noticed the week before that my credit score has seriously tanked, and I thought it was from a mix up with my husband's bank and another account. It turns out when I paid off my account, it left .27 as a balance and they have been reporting that I haven't paid my bill in four months and were charging me $43. When I contacted customer service, they tried to argue the point but eventually got rid of the charges.
The reason I am so upset now is, that person said they would take care of the issues with my credit score, they would tell the credit bureau I had paid on time. I just checked it and they told them I paid in November, so my credit is still ** and they flat out lied to me.

I have a legal question. I owned a Direct Rewards credit card since 2005. My payments was always on time until I lost my job in 2008. Although I was not working, I received my unemployment check, the account still was paid on time. I made a payment online but it was not posted till 2 days later causing me to receive late fees and my interest rate changed from 9.00% to 29.68%. After this, the payments was not bringing the balance down and the Interest rate was extremely too high. I contacted the company to give me a settlement payoff or lower interest. They refused.
I decide on July 28, 2014 to stop paying on credit card. What happen next amazed me!! Direct Rewards converted my balance to a Capital One Credit Card. Something about this process is very disturbing when a credit card company can just take their credit and convert to a Capital One Credit Card. I never signed anything authorizing this transaction. I'm aware a credit card company can sell bad debt to a collection company but it should be illegal to convert an account. Isn't this illegal? Thank you for your time in this matter.

As usual, with large corporations, banks, such as these, they have your money and their treatment of their customers is pathetic at best. They have held my money on deposit for a secured card I have had for over a year, for the maximum limit. However they have had the deposit in their possession for the allotted time. And I am counting days from the point of deposit, the moment it was wired from my account. Again, as usual, no help from customer service. I will never recommend Capital One, and will remove and close my card asap.

Capital One's customer service has proven ineffective at resolving a dispute over payments made - an issue too complicated to outline in your 200 character guideline.

Do not apply for a Capital One credit card. if you have a major life event like a death, health scare, loss of job and you are late with payments or cant pay for a few months Capital One by rights can restrict your account. When you get back on your feet and pay your debt off and go to them for help to turn your financials around they will do NOTHING to help you. They are rude and literally say, "We are sorry we will have to lose your business but polices and procedures are just that." They do not treat you like a human being - they treat you like you are scum (literally). I am a nurse and care for the sick and dying everyday for 22 years and work 150% for every penny I earn. As soon as I was back on my feet the first thing I did was pay my debt off to them. I just wanted them to help me report the positive to the credit report and it was like you were asking them to hand out free money to everyone on the street.
They were rude and condescending. I truly believe that if everyone stopped applying to them for credit and started using other companies that actually cared about you as a person it would make a dent in their bottom line. I am currently shopping around for a credit card company that treats you like a human being. I am closing out the Capital One card since it is already negative on my report and they have no interest in doing anything about it and do not give a damn if I go to another company as it goes against their policy and procedure to treat their customers like human beings who have tragedies that occur in life. Hey Capital One everyone is not a deadbeat. When you start asking what's in your wallet soon very soon people will not be saying Capital One I promise you that. I work in a very large academic hospital and because of this experience 10 people have agreed to cancel and not use their Capital One cards anymore. Hopefully this will continue as a movement.

Up until the first of this year (2015) I was helping a friend with paying her bills. Having the only computer between us; I set up an account so she could see what was happening. As of January, 2015, she decided to pay and track her own bills. At that time, I had asked Capital One to remove her account from my computer; because for some reason I could not delete it. They refused. They said my friend had to request to have it removed. She did; in March, April, May, etc.. As of November of 2015 the account is still on my computer. It has very personal information (HIPPA type information) that is nobody's business.

The letter indicated that $78,848.54 had been paid on check number ** (not one of our checks) with Trace id of **. However the account had much less than that amount and had NO overdraft capability. When I called the bank (800 support) I was told that I had cashed a check but when asked to give me information they said they could not pull up the check. I escalated the call and finally an agent told me that a certified check had been issued but they could not give me more details. I supplied my contact information and asked that this be investigated immediately.
I then received a call from the branch manager Pascal, who began by making small talk. When I asked what he was calling about, he replied "it's good to keep in touch" and only when I asked him if was calling about my account problem that he said "an error had occurred". I then went to the branch and was made to wait because he wished to help a customer open a CD(!!!), when finally in his office he said that a clerical error had occurred in which my account had been breached. He said they would fix the error. He refused to accept that this was a major procedural breakdown and would not issue me a letter with the events and resolution.

Capital One's customer service is the worst I've experienced from any credit card I've had. Their online chat help is a joke and will only refer you to call a phone number no matter what your issue is or how simple your question is. It is also painfully obvious you are typing to a bot and not an actual person like they claim. When you do call for support or customer service they never have answers and will make you create a claim/case with their "supervisor" that will take them a minimum of 4 business days to get a response for. So if you are ever hoping for quick help or resolution to an issue with the card, just kiss that hope goodbye.
They also failed to honor the card rewards for the card I signed up for. I was supposed to get $100 cash back after spending between $500 within 3 months, which I did but 5 months later they never redeemed the reward. When I called to find out why they claimed the card I signed up for didn't come with a reward... but I have the contract and the promotional letter they sent me to prove it, it's also still advertised for the card I had on their website. They've opened a "case" and I'm supposed to wait a couple weeks before getting a response to see if they are going to honor the reward, but I get the feeling I'm getting the runaround and they are just making me wait in hopes I'll give up. Finished paying this card off earlier this month and probably going to shut it down and switch over to another company. I'm really tired of dealing with Capital One.

For the last year and half, Capital One MasterCard has charge unauthorized charges to my three credit cards.

Unauthorized charges made in May of this year and instantly denied and proper procedures followed were removed and credit was given. I received an email from company making the charge recognizing the unauthorized charge and apology.
Six months go by and now the time frame for refund is over. Capital one is charging me %30 interest and other charges for their error. I pay all the credit card charges completely every month. Now these charges are adding up and eating up my credit line and place a derogatory credit report on my credit history. Numerous attempts have went to the winds with no help.
I went to my local branch bank that had aided me in a prior dispute that ended up getting a $1500 credit card account closed and was referred to yet another agent that told me in no uncertain tone and demeanor that the charges stand, pay the total amount before I could close the account. The agent also informed me to contact company and get refund, but could not provide me company name, address, or anything else. The credit card statement showed a combination of letters and numbers. Internet search reveals no company exist. However my $89.00 went into someone's pocket, because the credit card company is trying to get from me.

After two incidents with Capital One MasterCard, I, cannot recommend or support this bank or any of it's products, services, or programs to any one.

We took out a five-year fixed-rate home equity loan with Capital One in late 2009/early 2010, to buy an additional house. We have not been pleased with the payoff process. It seems either really inept, or, purposely arranged to cheat us. We could have paid for this property in full, outright, but we shopped around several lending institutions and settled on what looked like the best deal; a 5-yr, fixed rate, low interest and low closing cost loan from Capital One. We asked the loan officer at the time, MANY different ways, about the terms. We were to pay the same amount each month, spread over 5 yrs, and we chose to auto-bank-draft. We missed "0" payments.
Until now. Turns out, we were supposed to have paid our last payment via cashier's check, though no one at the bank ever told us that, we didn't get a letter or a phone call/message stating such, and it's not in our paperwork. We wouldn't have even known anything was amiss, except we got a letter from Capital One dated Oct 8 saying to call Customer Service asap. Told hubby, we shouldn't we have paid that loan off sometime this summer, right? He says, "yeah, like August?" So I get out the monthly bank statement from the auto-draft, and looking at the extremely fine print down below, it did say account now "delinquent"!!! OMG, how could that be, it's bank drafted!!!
Long story short, we were supposed to write out the last check, because, according to a man far away at a customer service center, that's when we paid all our interest on the loan. I nearly fainted. "No, we paid it every month, we made that very clear". I think I also said he must have me confused with their Payday Loan clientele. We ended up going thru 3 bank employees including a "Personal Relationship Banker" before finally finding someone at the downtown main office who, we hope, figured it out. She got on the phone with their loan department someplace in TX, and they accepted a transfer of the last loan payment from our Capital One personal checking account, (PLUS added interest from the overdue payment...GRRR) thereby closing out the 5 yr equity loan.
At least we hope. If I get a bill from these Capital One banksters wanting me to pay interest I've already paid, I'm going to be more than a little upset. Better think twice about taking out a loan with Capital One. I don't know what the alternatives are for home or equity loans, but there has to be an outfit that treats honest people in an honest manner, and, knows how to act when people actually pay off a loan! (Apparently that's a rarity).

1 star is saying quite a lot. If I could give this company No stars it would be more sufficient. Opening up this card was very easy, stress free and to start using it was amazing. I do not need a credit card, I simply opened this card up due to close friends' recommendations. Friends that make money and whom I trust their opinions.
I have 3 late fees and interest to be paid: $25, $35 and $25 total of $85.00. My credit card had a limit of $500.00. I have paid $445. Now with the late fees and interest I incurred that would make my balance of $445 paid -late fees of $85 = $360 paid on my $500 account.
So, on a $500 account - $360.00 payments (amount after late fees and interest rates) that would mean I have a balance of $140.00 to be paid. No, not according to Capital One. According to them I owe them $524.97 and yes, they have received all of my payments. No one can help me at their customer service desk. So, legal action? I do NOT recommend them!

Tuesday I contacted Capital One and told them I was traveling outside of the country, really needed my card. They offered to expedite it 2-3 days and then the call dropped. I called back to ensure this was processed and the representative told me that she sees it was requested for 4-5 business days which was not what we spoke about previously. She said for further expedited I would have to speak to a supervisor so I did who was the rudest person I have spoken with, did not seem interested, did not want to help me.
She told me they only expedite if it means certain deadlines etc. Now I got so frustrated after waiting 2 weeks having run around, dropped calls, no one called me back and said, "If you can't expedite it I wont be here so you can cancel it." With no hesitation she sure did! Now I am out of a card. My initial reason for calling was that I needed my card that they promised 3x, I was more than patient and will be outside of the country otherwise I wouldn't go through the hassle. Now I called back and said, "You know what don't cancel the acct. Just send me the card." The acct was already cancelled one minute later and a supervisor put in a request to reopen. I received a call back from Bruce who told me it cannot be reopened because I agreed to cancel it. Yes I did say cancel it because she was so rude to me and it seemed like no one cared to help and I was given a run around.

I am not trying to be difficult but why would I want to do business with a company that has such bad service, no follow up, no compassion, and no possible other solution to at least act like you care about your customers.
