I applied for a Capital One credit card with a balance transfer. The information said I had to receive my card. I received it and called the same day. They said I was no longer eligible for the balance transfer because is expired. This is false advertisement. Please beware of the paperwork they send. It is not true.

I've been with Capital One for years. I've always maintained a excellent payment record and have also kept a good credit rating. And I noticed my balance almost not even dropping month after month and I always paid more than the minimum due each month. So I called customer service only to speak with someone from another country named "Debbie" whatever! Whom I could not understand literally! After being told earlier that my apr rate was 22% I come to learn it was actually 28% and paying $100 a month only to have $30 going toward principle I asked about lowering my interest rate and was informed they don't do that! Horrible, Horrible company to do business with! GREED is what drives this company.

I finally paid the card in full and they sent another charge for me to pay interest because I didn't pay it off by a certain date. It was a huge amount of 2.37, I got denied a waiver of that amount and no reason why.

I have been banking with Capital One for over 10 years. Previously this bank was incredible, no over draft fees and pay two days early. However, now my direct deposit has apparently just up and gone missing. My company has been paying me to the same account for 3 years and no information has changed. Capital one states they never received it even after I've verified with my company that all account and routing numbers are correct. They are stating they also don't have to follow the federal laws regarding sending my money within two business days after 10 days of the investigation if the investigation is going to take longer than the 10 days. The lady I spoke to in claims was rude and horrible to work with. I will be leaving and changing all my direct deposits over to a new bank. This bank is an absolute joke now.

Capital One is a joke. They were good when I first started out but now they’re too serious about small mistakes. I wish I never had that credit card. All y’all did was mess my credit up. Scammers are everywhere. They hack my car more than once because I went online shopping and you hold me responsible for it. Wow all I’ve been hearing is good things about capital one. I haven’t seen it. Waste of my time even a plan for that car.

I activated a cash back Target deal online on Capital One Shopping, where I was supposed to receive $25 back for spending over $50. My receipt shows that I spent $51.66 but Target or Capital One reduced the amount to $49.05 in the portal to make me ineligible for the promotion. I'm surprised how corporations scam consumers in plain sight and get away with it.

They are thieves. I paid 849 deposited for a Capital One card. Now they are refusing to refund my money and refusing to give me the card I already paid for. Nothing else needs to be done but refund my money or allow me the card I paid for and they are simply refusing either and that is theft. Tried holding my money like blackmail. I hope the BBB shuts them down.

My wife and I set up separate accounts well over a decade ago. Most likely we have used our cards for tens of thousands of dollars do various purchases over the years. We discovered today while attempting to use my card for business that it had been placed “on hold” for no reason. We called and spoke to customer service agents that were unable to communicate fully in English and were unable to provide any reasoning for the hold other than “the fraud department placed the card on hold and sent a physical letter”. Unfortunately we never received said letter, so Capital One closed my account, thus reducing my overall credit availability and impacting my credit score. Their only resolution was for us to “reapply”, which again would impact my credit score.
We really expect better service from a company that we’ve done business with for many many years. Yet their response and actions showed us that we are not valued customers but only a number. Therefore, we will be closing all our Capital One accounts and leaving transparent reviews like this on every social channel available to us.

Besides Capital One being the first company to give me a credit card, I have no good reason to stay with them. I need to switch to a credit union. Recently I became disabled so I’ve been having less funds than usual but I was up front with the finance department for my loan and told them everything right away and I was given an extension. The good thing is my family came through for me so I wouldn’t have any issues paying my car note. So I ended up not needing the amount agreed upon with the extension and I paid the full amount due each month.
January 2026 I asked if I could now have that extension because I actually need it, I was told I have to wait 12 months because I already received an extension. I explained I never used it and it clearly shows I paid the full loan amount due each month instead of the half amount agreed upon so technically the extension should still be available to me. It’s just sad that when you are honest and explain your situation ahead of time you are treated like you’re trying to get over.

I’ve had my Capital One credit card for a few years now the end of 2025 in December I switched banks and I honestly just forgot to switch over my payment for my capital credit card to my new bank account so when all the years I’ve had this account I’ve never missed the payment. My payments are minimum $25 a month due the seventh of every month of this credit card is only a $300 credit limit that I just use the pay my Google storage which is 299 a month. That’s the only thing I use it for because it’s a $300 credit limit and can’t go forward $300 so because I missed that one payment capital one has reported it to the credit bureau. Tell me why my credit score has dropped 89 points. A loyal customer. You’ve never reached out to me to say, "Hey is everything OK? We see that you missed your payment in December." That’s OK blah blah blah no nothing.
I literally get an alert yesterday on January 15 saying that my credit score has dropped 89 points due to a delinquent payment from Capital One for $25. I’m so disgusted with Capital One. I will not ever do business with Capital One because how dare you treat your customer like that? You don’t know if I lost my job. You don’t know if I’m in a coma. You don’t know nothing. All you know is she missed her one payment so when I spoke to a Capital One supervisor this morning she couldn’t give me clarity to say when, "Miss ** you’re absolutely correct for the first 11 months of 2025 you never missed a $25 payment but yes we’re penalizing you because you missed your December payment." She goes on to tell me, "Oh well I don’t have that information." Shame on Capital One. Shame on you had that credit card for years and now I guess it’ll sit on my credit for seven years cause I’m not paying you one thing.

I’ve had two disputes with my Capital One debit card within the past six months, both involving false advertising and misleading pricing. In both cases, I purchased items believing the merchants were legitimate, only to later discover they were not. Before filing disputes, I made every effort to resolve the issues directly with the merchants, spending weeks going back and forth through emails. The responses were unhelpful, repetitive, and ultimately led nowhere. At that point, I expected Capital One to step in and take charge.
I provided clear documentation supporting my claims, but Capital One would not accept them. No one ever called or reached out to ask for additional information despite the evidence of false advertising. It felt like decisions were made without considering the customer at all. Overall, the dispute process was slow, frustrating, and disappointing. I did not feel supported or protected as a customer, even when providing proof and following the proper steps. The credited money is not immediately available.

The reason NOW for their 1 star review, they now using Discover. I could not use my card at three stores because for one: they did not accept Discover. Secondly, the card machines would say card error or deny the purchase. My money is all on this Discover card. I called, wanting a Mastercard, they only have Discover, with that been said.

Lately y'all have made changes that have not been in the best interest of your customers. Changing you Debit Card system over to be supported by Discover was horrible. Not only did this cause your customer to change all their auto pay but lots of place will not accept it. Or offer cash back at groceries stores. And not paying people their payroll on a consistent basis despite the New Year falling the middle of week is unacceptable. No other financial institutions had this issue. When people are dependent on money on a specific date and you decide to change it without notice you cause panic, and leave your customers helpless. Someone needs to answer for not processing these funds. And having an excuse about interest rate for 2026 is a lie. Your customers need to come first not your pockets. Once you have no customer your pockets will become less and less full.

My whole family switched to Capital One for all our primary banking about 1 yr ago. We were very happy when we initially switched until they announced the Discover merger. We were planning a trip to Canada and started saving on my sisters 360 checking account because we were going to use her Mastercard for all the trip expenses. The day before leaving, she received her new discover card in the mail and activated it. EVERY. SINGLE. SHOP, restaurant, gas station..etc. wouldn't accept the new card.
We didn't know much about Discover, but we knew it wasn't accepted everywhere and kept assuming the next one would take it. Time after time we had to hear the waiter or clerk whisper "it was declined" then had to shamefully pull out another card we didn't want to use. They did a horrible job explaining the merger and tried to make the loss of benefits and acceptance seem like a good thing. This merger is nothing but bad news and just another way for Capital One to screw over their clients.

As a banking professional in the US, I know how to effectively resolve disputes or complaints regarding banking transactions. Unfortunately, the company's representatives often lack the expertise to assist customers appropriately. I once dealt with an agent who struggled to communicate in English, and was unfamiliar with how to manage a partial credit dispute, which was incredibly frustrating and disheartening. It appears that its customer support is based in a 3rd world country, where the teams may not possess the necessary knowledge and skills to serve customers effectively. This company should focus on hiring qualified staff rather than outsourcing customer support to ensure it delivers excellent service!
With that being said, the selection for the "how would you rate your experience?" the selection has no "zero star" option because I could have chosen the ZERO star instead of one star. The company's customer support is beyond belief—EXTREMELY INCOMPETENT! Due to this lack of competence, I have chosen to close my credit card account with them.

I have never had issues in the past with my Capital One 360 checking account, for perhaps five years or more that I’ve had the account. However, I deposited a legal settlement check and had called ahead of time to talk to their customer service phone agents to ask them if there was anything in particular that I needed to do to make sure that the funds would be available to me in a prompt manner. They assured me that at least some of the funds should be available the next business day, which I looked up online, and that’s true, by federal regulations. Instead, Capital One decided through a proprietary algorithm to hold the funds for seven calendar days and maybe longer, apparently citing a concern that the Law Firm check would not clear.
Now at six days later, I still don’t have access to the funds. They sent an email and said the reason why is confidential, and I googled that, and it means that they think there is something fraudulent about the check, which came from a well known law firm, or something in the algorithm red flagged me. I explained to them that I could get a letter from the Law Firm telling them that I had just gotten the legal settlement, but they told me, no, there’s nothing that I can do. I am still waiting and will have to call them tomorrow if the funds do not become available. I am unable to pay bills in a timely manner if they hold it another week.

Typically I enjoy having them for my credit card.

When I switched I was NOT warned and ended up needing to borrow money from my family.

If you want a bank account and debit card that get frequently hacked and you have to constantly deal with a fraud department, then this is the bank for you.

My biggest problem with Capital One is their inconsistency with direct deposit. Our payroll provider does direct deposit 2 business days early. For example, if payday is on a Monday, they'll do the direct deposit on the Thursday before, which is two business days. But, Capital One doesn't care about business days, apparently, so they'll hold the deposit until Saturday. And when they do finally do the deposit, it might happen at 10 in the morning or 11 at night...it's so inconsistent. And if you call and bug them, suddenly the deposit appears...so strange.
My other complaint is with their customer service. When I call, I NEVER get a person who speaks English very well. It's always an Indian or someone who barely understands me or whom I barely understand. This is slave labor at its worst, when Capital One can't even pay American wages to American English speaking people from America to do customer service. I'm going back to SoFi because direct deposits are always on time and consistent, and because when I call, I get an American English rep.

I regret getting an account at all led alone to which they say all cards have to have a separate account and cannot be combined (which is asinine). All in all I would say you should get a Chase card. I have a card through them and have had zero issues. Anything would be better than Capital One.

Terrible. Their customer service is honestly the worst I have even experienced, every single person I talked to told me something different and I spent months trying to fix an error on my account. Eventually I had to close my credit card and it negatively impacted my credit score. Stay away unless you want to constantly be on the phone with very uninformed and disorganized representatives.

Labeling the reason as "fraudulent" - then after I paid off my account, a week later they applied charges to my account stating that the statement balance wasn't the pay-off amount (this statement balance was the balance due 2 months after my card was closed and couldn't be used so wouldn't you think that's all I owe since I hadn't used my card in 2 months?

I’ve been a Capital One customer for over five years. Until now, everything has always been great. But what they did to me recently is completely unacceptable. I received a letter in the mail my third letter saying I needed to update my information within 30 days. I had already done this in the past, but because I work long hours, I called them on the 28th day to make sure everything was correct. I gave them all the information they asked for, and they told me everything was updated and good to go. Today is the 1st, and when I went to deposit my money, I found out my card was locked. I called Capital One and asked why, since I had already confirmed all the information. That’s when they told me I now have to wait 10 business days for the update to fully process.
I explained that this doesn’t work for me I have rent and bills due, and all my money goes through that card. Locking my card on the 1st of the month, when people have major payments to make, is extremely inconvenient and stressful. They told me there was nothing they could do, even though this was caused by their own process. Like I said, Capital One has been a good bank overall, but this situation is a serious problem. Their delay created an unnecessary financial hardship, and they’re not the ones who will help pay my bills or late fees. This whole experience has been very stressful and disappointing.

Starting with the good: this is a credit card they practically give to everyone, so it’s a decent option for building credit when you’re just getting started. And that’s pretty much where the positives end. Now, about the interest rates—they’re high. And getting a credit limit increase takes forever, unlike with other banks I actually recommend, like American Express or Chase. Those companies really know what they’re doing.
Let me give you some context. I’ve had a credit history for 12 years, around seven credit cards, I earn six figures, and my total available credit across all cards is about $105k, with a 798 score on CK. Some of my cards I only use once every six months to keep them active, and I’ve never had issues with any of them—except Capital One. They’re the only bank that lowered my Quicksilver card limit from $10k to $5k because I “didn’t use it enough,” according to them.
It doesn’t really affect me going from $105k to $100k in total credit, but after so many years, it’s annoying to see that happen. And when it comes to increasing your credit limit, they’re terrible too. I have two cards with them stuck at $1,600 and the one they dropped from $10k to $5k. That’s why I prefer using my Amex with a $32k limit and my Chase card (my favorite of all seven), which has a $42k limit. So here’s my advice: you can start with a Capital One card to build some credit, but don’t rely on them long-term. As soon as you can, move on to Wells Fargo, Amex, Chase, etc. Hope this helps someone out there. Wishing you success—because that’s what we came here for!

Capital One – Unacceptable Website Failures and Unfair Late Fee. I’m extremely frustrated with Capital One right now. I discovered two unauthorized charges on my account and had to deal with long wait times, repeated holds, and multiple transfers before someone finally confirmed they would be refunded. But the bigger issue is the $28 late fee that happened because Capital One’s website simply wouldn’t let me make a payment. The payment button was blocked, the due date wouldn’t load, and I kept getting stuck for days. This wasn’t a one-off glitch — it happened earlier this month too. Despite the fact that I ALWAYS pay two weeks early, the manager (Ali, ID **) told me he “couldn’t” refund the late fee and acted like I had other options. That’s nonsense. Their system failed, and I’m the one getting charged for it.
Honestly, it feels like Capital One is making customers pay for their own screw-ups. It’s ridiculous and borderline shady. I opened a checking account with Capital One, but after this whole mess, I’m seriously considering closing everything. Customers shouldn’t have to fight this hard over something that’s clearly the company’s fault. Do better, Capital One — this is unacceptable.

I get a supervisor named Wayne (employee number: **) and he was very snarky. He was talking over me and made it seem like it was all my fault that the fee wasn't waived. He said the fee was denied, so I asked him why would someone say it was going to be and why didn't someone notify me of this. I can be very understandable, but Wayne's attitude was very poor which angered me. He wasn't trying to explain anything at all, but have a sarcastic attitude.
I asked to speak with someone else who can assist me, and he claimed he had no other supervisor or same level team members. I told him he does.

Today’s final straw, which is probably going to end with me closing the 20k in credit lines we have with capital one, was because the SUPERVISOR I spoke to was so rude, constantly interrupted me, and pretty much gave me the equivalent of “well I’m not sure what to tell you” when I was trying to address that capital one is claiming they sent me communication that I have NOWHERE. It’s become ridiculous. Outsourced low quality support. Terrible interest. The perks aren’t even good anymore. Who cares if I’m earning 1% when inflation is 10% every year? I even checked their “airline deals” and it’s like 10% more than every other travel engine. Like what’s the benefit of being with capital one? Nothing.

Use any credit card company but this one. My wife and I have been incredibly faithful with our payments. We had a higher balance and they were charging a huge interest rate. So we decided to do a balance transfer. We had called to make sure the balance was paid off at zero and cancelled the account with a zero balance. We were surprised by them sending us a text message saying that we had a past due balance and a late charge. We called and they wouldn’t even waive the late fee. I explained to them the situation and they are so scripted and rigid they wouldn’t waive the late fee because we didn’t have a courtesy waive on the account. Might as well been a robot on the line. There’s no true customer service with Capital One. Companies like this are so money driven and crooked. Honestly they wouldn’t waive the late fee because we were no longer a customer. We’ll never use Capital One again. Save yourself the trouble with companies like this.

Finally I am so fed up with their customer service that had to write a review. Most recent disaster is as follows. Using the app, I transferred funds to my Capital One account from my wife’s BoA account. Out of nowhere they flagged the transaction, put on hold, even though I had made similar transfers in the past. Was asked to call in. I did. The agent said my wife needed to verify her account ownership with BoA while they call them. She did. Now, again out of nowhere the agent said they now have same issue with an earlier transfer from my account with Citi bank to capital one. Now, I was asked to verify my account ownership with Citi bank. Please note, this transaction in question, the transferred fund was duly deposited and at that time no issue was raised but surprisingly now apparently they have an issue. So, I patiently complied while they called citi.
Unfortunately it was after business hours and no live agent was available to assist. So the agent said I should call them back the next day to take care of the unfinished verification. Once I called in the next day, the agent claims I have to verify account ownership with Citi and my wife, again, must do the same with BoA!!! How incompetent and how customer unfriendly can you be!

What is worse, for the money I paid, the official venue agent, Ticketmasters, had tickets at the front of the theater. I was truly deceived!

Capital One supports fraudulent transactions by retailers. If you try to file a fraudulent claim, you are transferred to the Philippines deck where staff lacks knowledge, experience and expertise in this area. First, staff approves your fraudulent claim and credits your account. Later, staff charges your account again, always claiming improper documentation even when you supply thorough, documented proof that the transaction was fraudulent.

I use to love Capital One, but my card was stolen in May. I reported the fraud and they sent me a new card. Then I found out my card was stolen again, got a new card and so on. This week, I caught fraud again and guess what? After I locked my account and got a new card in the mail, my account was again overdrawn. Turns out my virtual card was stolen back in May and the people who stole it would make under $50 online payments and whenever it would decline would wait until I put more money in my account to do it all over again.
Capital One never thought about replacing my digital card for 7 months and I had to demand they replaced it and now my new card in the mail is being replaced by another new card in the mail and my virtual card is finally updated. So, I’m probably going to transfer my balance and be done with a company that kept letting thieves steal my money due to not updating both of my cards when I asked to replace my card in May.

I agree with the negative at this point. While I had been a customer for over 14 years my card was shut off because of lack of use or purchases. They said they notified me via email in Aug. They honestly did not. I did get the email for the cancellation which I immediately called them to respond. The associate said at this point there is nothing they can do. I was told to reapply, which I did. Here's the fun part, I was offered nothing as far as promotions or anything but was immediately accepted back. They also said they would match my old credit limit. They did not.
Now before we worry about my credit score, it's double what it was when I originally applied. I asked if it could be matched and they said no I'm a new customer with no credibility yet. To add the salt in the wound two weeks later I received a wonderful promotion for 0 apr and no interest till 2027! So of course I called and asked politely what is going on and what can be done. The nice associate told me that it's a new promotion. To which I replied the promotion according to google had been going on.
In retrospect maybe I am the ** for not looking specifically online and dealing directly with an actual person. In short customer service is a thing of the past, maybe it always was. The manager I asked for also told me my request is for certain people and I probably didn't qualify. So if a score of high numerical proportions don't quantify me please tell me what does. At this point I know, I know my name is just a number on a piece of plastic film.

I applied for a Capital One card because of a specific reward offer. They ran a hard credit inquiry for that application — but never approved me for that card. Instead, they issued a completely different product with no reward, and never disclosed that change by email, letter, or any other notice. For days I was told the reward “would appear within a week.” Only after multiple calls and department transfers did I learn that I’d been switched into another card altogether. That’s not confusion — that’s a bait-and-switch.
This violates Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act (15 U.S.C. § 45), which prohibits unfair or deceptive acts or practices, and likely breaches disclosure requirements under the Truth in Lending Act. Consumers deserve transparency. Running someone’s credit for one product, then quietly enrolling them in another, isn’t a mistake — it’s deception. I’m sharing this so others don’t waste their time or risk their credit score on the same experience.

Start with opening an account with Chevy Chase in 1995. At some point. Capital One bought Chevy Chase and slowly squeezes me out of my checking and savings accounts until i have to transfer all my money to one of their products. Fast forward to recently, and they accepted an obviously fraudulent check into my account. No signature, no similarity with previous checks I’ve written, and submitted from a payee that a simple Google search reveals to be a typical scam.
I called capital one unfortunately, their concern is with their exposure for allowing this to happen. Next thing I know they are ordering my account to be closed. No warning, no apology, or sympathy for a long-standing customer. I told him I changed my mind and that I now recognize the check under the threat of closing my account, figuring I would slowly wean off the problematic account and transfer the funds slowly into a new account. They refused to listen to that saying once I told them there was an issue that it was a liability for them to keep my account open. So now the $30 fraudulent check is costing me to reprint checks ($30), late fees with auto drafts that are being declined ($15), time spent to fill out new auto draft applications for various financial institutions (2 hrs) plus others.
I miss working with a small bank. Small banks are concerned about their customers. When you call customer service, at capital one you will typically talk to at least two maybe three different individuals, all in their own specialized departments I suspect that are located across the globe. I’m desperately searching for a bank to move my 5 accounts into. Maybe a bank more concerned about serving customers rather than abusing them.
The second issue you have to deal with is when you make a large mobile deposit. you’re almost guaranteed to receive a letter stating that due to insider information they suspect that this check can possibly be fraudulent or won’t be honored so they’re holding the funds for an extended period of time.
The ridiculous part about this is this letter is usually received a day or two after the date they’re holding the check which allows them to use the funds Without crediting your account. So if you immediately write checks against your deposit based on the mobile deposits notice that your funds will be available in 24 hours, the potential exist that your check may bounce. Note that these deposited checks are coming from very very reputable companies that deal in millions of dollars of transactions. I find their “confidential information” libelous and insulting my clients. Think long and hard before becoming a capital one user.

I’ve been a Capital One customer for years, and I’m deeply disappointed by how little support they provide when you actually need help. Despite always making an effort to pay my balance-sometimes in full, sometimes over time, and keeping my account in overall good standing to the best of my ability. I’ve been denied help three separate times: They denied my credit limit increase even when my account was in good standing. They denied me hardship assistance when my household income dropped, even after I explained my situation. And most recently, when I paid my full balance on October 16 using funds from a personal loan, a small technical mix-up caused the payment to bounce. I corrected it as soon as I found out, but they still refused to reverse a $108.99 interest charge.
I understand companies have policies, but there’s a difference between policy and compassion. I’ve always made an effort to pay what I owe, even under pressure, and this experience has shown me that Capital One doesn’t value customers who are genuinely trying. I’m sharing this so others know: even if you’re responsible and transparent, don’t expect much empathy from Capital One when life gets hard.
