    I made the mistake of making 3 payments to my account in 1 billing cycle. I wanted to keep balance low. I was never informed that I could not make more than 2 payments per cycle. My account was frozen and I could not use it. Very embarrassing when I went to use it and it came up... declined. Do not accept... Wow. I called them and was told I had a suspicious payment and I needed to send a copy of my bank statement to verify the payment was legitimate. I must not have gotten it to them in time because they then closed my account!! I got it reinstated however my credit score went down 11 points.

    When I talked to someone the reason given for closing my account was get this... ABUSE OF CREDIT. For the last 2 months they have not reported it as an open account. They still report to TransUnion that my account is closed and I cannot get anyone on the phone to understand or help me resolve this. OMG!! Not sure if this was worth opening. If I could do it again I would stay far far away from this card. Cannot believe all this just because I made too many payments in 1 bill cycle. Which is something they do not tell you. Again OMG!!

    I called regarding a no delivered card twice. The 2nd time I was told I was lying, about the address because they had a different one on file. I had already received other mail about the account to the address the card was supposed to arrive to with the correct address on the form. The rep again said I was lying and will now be making me wait a whole extra month to get a card.

    I just wanted to let you know that I have been a Credit One card holder since 9/2017 and I never agreed to be a part of their "Credit Protection" plan, yet they decided to add me anyway. I am not a statement reader and this is why I didn't notice it, until after almost 3 years of being a card holder. On 2/21/21, I noticed a Credit Protection charge and when I contacted Credit One, they said they could only give me a credit for 3 months, to something I never agreed to in the first place.

    I think it's very unfair and I haven't been late on a single payment, ever since I became a member in 2017 and that's even considering the pandemic situation that the world is confronting (including my family and I.) I just think it's a really bad option to helping anyone repair their credit, if they're going to add hidden costs and not be liable for it, once confronted.

    Sincerely disappointed,

    This company is a joke. They didn’t properly activate my first card, then sent me a replacement and charged me the annual fee twice. I paid one fee, they dropped the other. Then they blew up my phone saying I didn’t pay the fee and now there is a late fee, DOUBLING the amount due. I have NEVER USED THE CARD but owe the $80! After four phone calls and an hour of my time they finally waived the late fee and credited back the annual fee, but never even acknowledged that they had misapplied the money I already gave them. Now I have to wait another 48 hours for all the refunding the woman did this morning before I can cancel the account. I’ll keep my fingers crossed because it seems their sole purpose is to not let you cancel their card and keep just charging fees. High rate, low limit, huge annual fee, and crappy accounting and customer service practices. Just don’t do it. Get a different card from a better company.

    I make payments often, after I use my card so it will stay update. You are only allow 5 express payments and standard payments online in a month time. If you want to make an express payment you will need to use Western Union or MoneyGram. So I talk with a rep about if the day before, and they only posted one of the payment. So I call and spoke with 3 different people and they advise me nothing could be done until Monday. I am out of town stranded because I sent my money to put on my credit card and now I have nowhere to stay. I tried to get western union to cancel the payment and they advise me the credit card company would have to cancel it back. This is so sad that they know the money is there but, since they have no one on the weekends to process the payment, I will need to wait until Monday. So I have to find a way to get back home. This is so crazy. Please be careful about making urgent payments, that you pay extra for.

    Never do business with this shady credit company again. Your employees lack empathy, don’t contact any one to say, "Hey by the way I saw that ..." then me as the customers would of explain, "What was going was in the hospital and changed banks and must of forgot to update the information with you." Instead of informing the customer who might be a little occupied with their health and 2 deaths within 3 weeks of each other and I could of made the payment over the phone, like Capital One who called me, Mid America called and even the cable company called because although some payments maybe late by a day or so the payment has always gone through, but no employee try to ask what happened or try to work with you.

    They just close the account with no contact. You just happened to check your account and saw the money still sitting there and called, first call no empathy or discovery questions asked just very clip and on a hurry to say, "Oh it’s close," just to hang up and call back and still get the same treatment. Leads me to believe as a company you don’t care about your customers, nor do you make them feel valued. That is the only way I can explain it. You would think with us being in the 21st century an email or voicemail could of been sent, I can seriously compare this bank with a mobster loan shark. Distasteful.

    And for that I will pay my balance owed and I will never ever recommend this company to any one, and just because your employees are lacking in customer service which is a reflection of the company as a whole, I’ll find every outlet online since it’s the 21st century warning people about the treatment, the outrageous fees, in if they are ever in a bind this company just don’t care and won’t even reach out, but hey they’ll be quick to mess up your credit and quick to close.

    I have two cards from Credit One and they were working out ok. They have ALWAYS been difficult to get help in any situation. This time has been a nightmare. I made the mistake of paying twice in a month... they don't like that. They put a hold on my card until I called them when I realized it would not work. My accounts have always been in good standing! Not late pay more than my minimum so for my card to be on hold I was a little ticked. I called three times before I could get any help. That was when I was told I should only make 1 payment a month. So how do I fix it? I had to send a copy of my bank statement showing each payment in separate emails because I made them on different days, same month just two different days.

    I have sent the email 3 times with a response that they will get back to me with in 10 day.... and NOTHING ever. No response at all. DO NOT GET THIS CARD. They locked me out of my accounts so I can not even make a payment so they are screwing with my credit score. I am going to get them paid off and will never use them again. They are absolutely the worst card ever.

    I have paid monthly fees for this card for years!! Hundreds of dollars over years. Today, for the first time in years I needed to use the card for an emergency -- vet emergency for my dying cat -- and because my $25.66 "fee" is a 10 days late and I chose to make a "standard" payment instead of an "express" payment, they've declined to pay my vet bill. I've kept this card, despite the high monthly fees, for emergencies and to help build my credit. Absolutely NOT WORTH it. Wish I had paid more attention to the reviews and complaints before signing up.

    I’m going to mail their card back them and have them sign for the card back to show them this will reach them within a few days like my 1st payment did in November. I feel this business is shady, unethical, uses trickery, and I don’t need them and reminded them they need me. They decided to be bullies and not post my payment. I take photos of the outside of the postmarked envelope in which I mail my money order. They tried getting even further express payment fees, NOT happening. They also wanted to see if I would give them access to my other accounts for payments, NOT happening! They received any posted my first payment within 3 business days.

    I let December’s posting issues slide due to Christmas holiday. They have had 9 days and they are trying to see if I need my payments to post quickly for some other reason in order to get me to either use some other form of payment to allow them access into more of my personal information and to help their 3rd parties get their little monthly nine dollars etc. None of these tactics are going to work. They blew their chances into making any further money off me. There are other cards out there and I keep a monthly check of my credit which is good. I want to close my account with them and they are not allowed to check my credit ever. They really are an awful credit card company. All they had to do was post my damn payment but they were stupidly short-sighted. I will post complaints through the BBB and on Facebook and other sites as well. Thank you. Best regards.

    Be careful when signing up. Chances are they will give you a credit card no matter what. You may get a $300 credit line. The fine print will say that they will charge you for a annual fee for $75 and chances are you will miss that. So right off the back you will be charged for 25% of your credit line. The interest is insane and you will be hit with it no matter what. DON'T sign up for a card. You are better off without it.

    My initial payment was $30 on an $81 balance. The due date was 1/14 and I made the payment on 1/7. I got a notification on 1/12 that my payment was returned without explanation. I checked my account to make sure there were sufficient fees, as I rarely carry a balance under $500 in that checking account. The fees were there, and every other transaction I made that day and since had gone through. What’s more, the money was never charged or returned. So while it may have been an error, if my first payment to a company is the only returned transaction I’ve had in years? I'm not comfortable with their standards. I called customer service and got no clear answer on why the payment was returned. I stated that if pay off the balance and to close my account immediately, as I won't be subjected to a $9 instant payment to avoid late fees when I paid a week in advance and wasn't notified until the last minute.

    Signed up for the credit card and in 3 months they cancel my card for late payments. First off their payment methods are stupid. They charge $10 to make a payment right away or you can make a regular payment that takes several days to process. On top of that they will call you 10 times a day, even after I talked to someone they still call. Horrible bank.

    I have had a Credit One card since June 2020. Since becoming a customer I have always paid my balance due in full every month, but one. That one time was my November payment, which happened to be the first time I was late due to the way payments are processed. I say process, but usually, that implies the customer knows how it works. Credit One does whatever they want in that regard. Let's explain.

    When you make a payment to Credit One the money is not taken out of your bank account instantly or the next day. I never knew how long the money would sit in my account before they processed it, on average it was 5 plus days. As confusing as that is I just learned to deal with it. It required constantly checking my account to make sure the money the payment was there whenever they finally processed it. I'm not rich and live from month to month like a lot of people. Some months all the money left in my account would be for my Credit One payment.

    The only time I was ever “technically” late with my payment I made the money was in my bank account for six days. So for six days, I checked just in case something I forgot about paying came out. Well, that month it did. Conveniently on the seventh day, Credit one finally decided to take it out, just after my monthly Apple music payment I forgot about has proceeded. It was also 3 days after my due date with Credit one, so I was charged a late fee. I was a little upset! It was my fault I know, but if Credit One processed payments in a reasonable way it would not have happened. Again, it ultimately was on me for that.

    Well, it's a month, after all, that and I “made my payment” four days before the due date. This time I made sure I had more than enough in my bank account. Just in case the same issue last month came up. Still, I checked my account every day to make sure I knew it had been processed. The due date came and passed with the same result. A few days after that the money still hadn't processed, so I logged into my Credit one app to check. To my surprise I couldn't log in, all I got was a message that my account had been suspended.

    When I called Credit One to find out what was going on, I was told the account had been closed! I was shocked and confused, so I asked why it had been closed. After a brief hold, the rep informs me that it was because I was late too many times. I argued that technically I had only been late once and even if that was true I had received no notice of the issue. I mean not an email, text, phone call, or message through the app. They just closed my account.

    After calming down I asked what I needed to do to get this corrected because I could prove that it wasn't true. They wanted me to send bank statements showing my account balance every month they claimed I was late. I guess the fact that their system would show only one time I ever paid a late fee wasn't enough. I would have done it for them, but all my Credit One statements were electronic and I can't log in. I thought about going through all that trouble to fix it, but if they how they do business it's not worth it! I really that it had more to do with always paying my balance monthly in full. I was not accruing interest, so they weren't making money.

    It is important as a consumer to know facts and be able to make informed decisions before starting a relationship with a creditor. I opened a card with credit one bank to build my credit back in January 2018 I have never been late until I lost my job during a pandemic. I was on auto-pay and the withdrawal occurred before I could adjust the autopay. Actually it hit my bank twice, in one week.

    As a result credit one bank "Closed" my account altogether. I'm now looking at 45 days late on an account that never was late. At no point did credit one bank call me and see what was going on. They have nothing in place to help people that are being affected by a crisis. I have yet since 2018 restored my credit and luckily I have other large account limit credit cards, but a late mark on your credit is a late mark. Now that I called to pay the card off they want to open my card again.... Hell no! I paid and demanded in writing to close the account after "They opened" it. The audacity. I want to do no business with a credit that will not work with me during a time of need.

    I’d been trying to rebuild my credit like most credit one customers (were not customers to this company, simply dollar signs, the word customer infers we be appreciated in some way and shows a little respect as such) first of all I'll say that I appreciated this company taking a chance on me and my less than perfect credit score when giving me a credit card. That being said, they are a business they need to make money. And so I could look past the high fees, which keep their annuals up, the activation fees which show a customer who doesn’t usually pay their bills is ready to pay something before getting anything, and not I could simply not care about the interest rate on a card with a few hundred dollar limit as I intended to pay it off each month (which I did) in order to build my credit score as quick as I could.

    After my bank account was drained by someone who got a hold of a check of mine I was screwed out of my money. I decided I’d not spend with checks or debit cards any longer. So I chose to use credit for everything and then pay the bill with my checking account. Meaning whatever I spent money on or if a thief got my card number and made fraudulent charges I wasn’t liable. I was protected in many ways a checking account doesn’t offer. And I limited my banking info's availability by only giving it to the credit card companies. My spending and liability could be far less this way. But because the card limit is small I maxed it out several weeks during the first two months this meant I was making a payment on it each week just to have money to spend.

    I could have pulled cash out I suppose but I was trying to get in the habit of paying the bill and putting my expenses (not just almost but all, on credit) and between this card and another card I was managing to. All be it taking my weekly paychecks (from two jobs paid on opposite bi weekly schedules) and paying toward each card. Now I didn’t pay the card off each week, (I did at the end of the month though) I typically just paid a hundred or two hundred dollars I’d have to give me an allowance on available credit, I didn’t use multiple payment methods to pay the credit card payments. Just my bank account and those were the only charges my bank account was being used for.

    My plan was working well and my credit score was already going up in the first couple months from doing this. Keep in mind when I made my payments I needed my cash I was forking over to them available ASAP as I’m obviously not rich and have small credit limits, so I took a loss each payment made because they charged me $10 for “express payment” which was available either right away of in twenty four hours as a pose to seven to ten days later. That is one of those fees that I mentioned earlier I was able to look past. It’s the next shady business practice however that brings me here today.

    I made several payments on my small limit card ($300 limit) in both months I was using the card (my payments the second month were somewhere around $540) which seems like a small amount by most standards when talking credit card balances and debt. Then I got I’ll and ended up in the hospital for two weeks and recovering at home a third. I didn’t use my card at all during that three weeks. On the fourth week I went to use it and it was declined. I knew there was two thirds of the card available to spend. What could be the issue? I tried to log in to my account and it said it was locked. I called the company the next day and they said they closed the account that morning! But why?

    Why would a credit card company close an account who’s owner was making payments on it with more frequency than most folks with poor credit would. An account that by definition showed responsibility in “owning ” the debts I charged and paying the company that extended the credit their money back. Well, let me tell you the answer I got left my mouth wide and jaw slacked. Apparently I did something very wrong by paying them all the time. I was apparently supposed to pay the minimum payment only and rack up interest charges. Or anything that would have made them more money off me. Aside from the fifty dollars they got that month alone in fees to let me make the payments I did. That’s better than most interest on low limit cards!

    They locked, then closed my account with sending a single letter or alert on my email. The reason being was that I did the unimaginable. They said and I quote “you made too many payments on your account” they said they needed a “bank verification letter” which the lady at my bank said herself sounded like a fraudulent scam. But they never sent me anything requesting such a letter. They then locked my account so I couldn’t make a monthly payment by express or standard time frame nor could I use a different payment method to pay the payment. Keep in mind not a single one of my nine payment was ever returned, rejected or refunded by my bank. They all went through and credit one accepted each. Even the last two which they say were the two that apparently overdid it. They were all made from the same account. They say this is to protect their customers from fraud.

    How so? If it was fraud wouldn’t it be a different account paying on it each time? Wouldn’t it be rejected or charged back when the real owner saw the charges (of which there were enough they'd stand out on a bank statement) if the banking info was someone else’s? They took my last payments and accepted them and then locked my account leaving me with 200 available credit and a hundred dollars (PLUS MORE FEES) owed. A balance they would not let me pay because my account was locked. They charged me a late fee for no payment that last month as well. I took credit hits for nonpayment. And then another hit to my credit because they closed the account with a balance.

    All in all they made more money from me in the first two months than they do on most customers (I’d assume) in the first year even. All in all, financially speaking they profited off of me 75$ annual fee, 35$ activation fee, nine 10$ express payment fees (90$) and the 35$ late fee they charged after refusing to let me make a payment. A grand total of $235 in fees they collected in the two months as one of their “valued customers” not to mention the serious damage they did to my credit. All the points I was able to gain my score dropped double that amount. I’d say be cautious. For some folks it seems to work. For myself. It did not.

    I opened my account with Credit One about 6 1/2 years ago to build my credit back up. In that time I never missed a payment. The fees are high and obviously so is the interest rate but I never complained about it. Well this past weekend I made a purchase and the invoice that was sent had the wrong products on it. I tried to contact the retailer multiple times by phone, email, and even on Facebook but I received no response. Naturally I called my credit card company whose card I made the purchase with and explained the situation. I was told that since the charge is pending there is nothing they could do and that I would need to file a dispute once the charge goes through. I explained that the charge is no longer authorized because the items listed are not correct and that I have no way to contact the seller.

    My assumption was that like any other credit card company I could file a dispute over the phone, or very least by email as I've had to do that before with other credit card companies, but I was wrong. They said the ONLY way to file a dispute was by mail. I work on the road 6 days a week and travel to different states for work. Not only was this request unreasonable but the company states it's a "TECHNOLOGY AND DATA DRIVEN" company. I was told they do have email but not for this. I was baffled. I asked to be transferred to a supervisor. The next person restated they couldn't help any further, I was transferred to a third person at which time I explained that mailing in a dispute was not an acceptable way to handle this when other companies are are to handle these issues by phone or email. I then explained that if I was unable to be helped that closing my account would probably be the best option. I was told, "That would be fine. You tell us what you decide".

    A 6 1/2 year customer and not a single care about keeping them! I spoke to a fourth person and they again said there was no way to help me but they would be more than happy to close my account. He had it done within a minute. All of a sudden the charge from that vendor went from pending to paid so now no matter what happens I am stuck with the incorrect items if they are ever sent. Moral of the story...CREDIT ONE is happy to take your money but purposely makes customer service as inconvenient as possible.

    I write this after me and my dad applied within minutes of each other and I have screenshots of results. We both applied for the lowest amount card ($300) as we are struggling to get by. We both admitted to bad credit but how much credit do you need to get $300 when you are hungry and broke? Our denials came back with the exact same credit score (which is a flat-out lie) and the reasoning was the same. In the same order and the same excuse. Word for word! How does such greed help anyone???

    Credit One Bank is the worst bank ever! Their customer service is terrible! They outsource to foreign countries and those Customer service reps read a script and provide false ID numbers. I had fraud happened on my card and they blamed me for it and tried to accuse me of participating in fraud which I never did. So I complain to the comptroller of the currency where I have a claim now. This agency has contacted me and asked me to provide more information on this company and their unlawful practices.

    Do you not get credit with this company or do business with Credit One Bank. They are unprofessional, rude, you you on hold for long hours. And they constantly transfer you to different people. More later as my case with the comptroller of the currency is reviewed. Make sure if you do business with this company and have the same experience I have take it all the way to a federal court.

I do this so I can continue to monitor and control his spending. I make multiple payments a month to this card and have done so for a while now. And all of the payments always come from the same bank and account. My son tried to use the card this morning but learned that it was blocked. When I spoke to customer service they told me that my last payment was flagged as possible fraud even though it fell within the same frequency as past payments and from the same bank account. They then said the only way to remove the block was to provide a bank statement with my name on it and that within 7 to 10 business days the block would be removed. It does neither myself or my son any good 7 TO 10 BUSINESS DAYS FROM NOW!!!!

    After establishing good credit, I decided to cancel both of my Credit One cards. They were totally paid off yet every month they were charging me $5.00 on one card, after I paid the $39.00 annual fee and $9.00 on the other card. A root canal is less painful than trying to get through to these people. They give no options on the main menu for talking to customer service, when you finally hit the magic button, you can tell it's an outsourced call center.

    The first time I got through to an actual person, she told me I had to call back and push 4. So I did, go through listening to 20 recordings before I could push 4, which was still wrong. I finally just kept hitting the star button until it connected me to a person. Then they had to transfer me, finally reached the right person after AN HOUR trying to get through, THEN he tries to convince me repeatedly to keep the cards open after I repeatedly told him to CANCEL. I finally had to practically yell at him, because my frustration level was going out of control. So an hour plus later, I finally got these cards cancelled.

    I've been with Credit One for 3 + years now and the highest my credit limit has reached is $950 due to the periodic automatic credit increases. Before today, I've had yet to initiate a credit limit increase on my own, so this evening I thought I'd be random and request a credit limit increase. Mind you, I have relatively "good" credit (700+ credit score with all 3 bureaus) and my balance is sitting pretty at $7, as I like to pay off my balance every month. I received an automatic denial.... Hmmm I wondered why??

    The reason in the denial letter is, "Account usage during the past 90 days does not meet our current eligibility criteria. If you have any questions regarding this matter, you should contact us..." So, of course, I contact them to inquire with a live representative. An account supervisor informs me that I'm not spending enough monthly on my card with my monthly max at $100, so they feel that I don't need a credit limit increase. I explain that my limit is only $950 and I like to keep my credit card usage/balance no more than 10-15%. I further explain that the credit bureaus like to see your debit balance at the max 30%, thus I don't like to get near the threshold to preserve my good credit standings. The account supervisor proceeds to argue with me and tells me that this logic is not logical and that I should be using my 30%.

    Wow.... The last time I checked, lenders preferred those who carried no credit card balance monthly. This was the music of bologna to my ears. I ended the call by telling her that this logic has seemed to work for all my other credit cards thus I refused to debate over her illogical thinking and hung up. I guess you're dammed if you do and dammed if you don't. Here I am, doing the right thing and managing my credit the proper way and I get told I'm managing it too well. I'm baffled....

While other banks were offering him hardship payment terms (especially during this period of Covid-19) and reversing late fees and interest and arranging reduced payments, which he was keeping up with, this bank would not.

    However, on 10/15, I received another alert that I’m over my limit. I check my account and find that they slapped on a $25 fee for a Returned Payment. It was not a returned payment! It was a stop payment on their incorrect withdrawal attempt to my bank account. I had even told them twice on those numerous calls to make sure they don’t put that fee on my account! They said they hadn’t and weren’t going to since it was all their mistake. As of 10/20, and after I had already sent them two messages through the portal, they still haven’t resolved this.

    Received a pre approval letter in the mail and stupidly accepted it. Getting the card was easy and took about 14 days to receive. Interest rate is very high and the annual fee comes directly off your balance once activated. You have a bill and already in debt before you ever swipe it. I kept the card anyways and used it some. Always paid on time and at least double the minimum payment. Last month I used my girlfriend's bank account to make the payment. Received the confirmation email.

    Two weeks later I get an email saying my account is closed and Credit One starts blowing up my phone minutes later. I ignored the first dozen or so calls and eventually answered out of irritation. Surprise! It was Credit One wanting a payment. Credit One Bank rejected the payment for unauthorized use. They closed the account before ever making an attempt to contact me. Although I always paid on time, having an account with them has done nothing but drop my score month after month. They will not reopen the account and you cannot even sign in to your account anymore to pay the bill. I guess they will harass me once the next bill is due? They are purely awful to deal with.

Most recently, Credit One breached their contract by failing to credit a cash back reward for a gasoline purchase. Customer service initially said they would correct the error, then when I called to follow up they insisted that the charge was not from an accepted merchant.

    I read a lot of reviews when deciding to apply for this card. Most of them were negative. I read that if you make multiple payments in a month they give you a hassle. Not true, I make 2-4 payments a month usually paying in full each time, never had a issue. I read payments do not post on time, not true, they post the same day made. Although the available credit sometimes takes 2-3 days to become available that was never a problem for me as we got this card to build credit not to live off of.

    Here is my thoughts, yes there is high fees, yes they are a little slower in releasing available credit (because they want to make sure the payment is not returned) and yes they are a little antiquated. If you are looking to build credit and use it and pay as you agree, this card is great, it serves the very purpose it is designed for and most people intend on using it for. With that said I find the low review rating and negative reviews are so many because so many of us poor people with crap or no credit get this card, then can't afford to pay on time or keep too high of a balance and get mad when there are fees or no credit. If you want o fix or build your credit follow the rules and this card is perfect. If you want a no fee card Discover offers a secured card for as little as $200 and will return your deposit after 8 months if you behave! We did both and it's working excellent.

You'll always pay interest with this card. This message is an attempt to bankrupt the bank so they no longer have any business. Consumers don't appreciate companies like this who prey on the weak just so they can gain extra money and incentive because a consumer happens to be in a temporary position of bad standing. In fact, businesses should never run this way, because this is what the business will get in return.

The bank's own website recommends people set up auto-pay on credit cards to help rebuild credit, and THEY THEMSELVES DO NOT OFFER AUTO-PAY. They CHARGE you to make a payment unless you want it held for 7 days. Let me repeat that: THEY CHARGE YOU TO MAKE A PAYMENT. They promise you the chance to increase your credit line after you make on-time payments for 6 months, but a credit line increase request option is nowhere to be found on the website THEY ARE BAIT-AND-SWITCH artists. DO NOT USE THIS CARD FOR ANYTHING BUT A LEDGER ON YOUR OVERALL CREDIT LINE.

    Credit One Bank is sending me a bill every month saying I owe them money when I never received or ever even activated a credit card from credit one bank. This is ridiculous and insane that I get a bill in the mail every other month that says I owe money to them but clearly I don't even have a credit card through them. They're charging me for a credit card that I don't have or even have and was never sent to me. Something needs to be done with this company because they're a scam and want money from people even when you don't have a credit card through them.

I was done and closed my accounts when they wanted 50 dollars just to get my name changed to my married name on two cards. Twenty five apiece and with my annual fee coming up it was time to pay them off and close my accounts. They also make this extremely difficult by having to write them a letter, stamp and envelope then sit and wait. I did get them closed and moved on to better cards. Don't ever lose your card.

    Back in 4/2016 I got this card. I also thought this card was from Capital One same symbol and everything. Got the card for a promotional offer. "0% for 6 months, no interest, no fees" the rep told me. I got my first statement before I even charged anything and I was charged $75.00. I called numerous times and finally got a supervisor and he said he would remove it which he never did. No one speaks good English and they are very hard to understand. I made monthly payments and kept getting late fees and interest. When I try to call I was always put on hold for over 1/2 hour and then the call was disconnected. My total purchases was $169. I paid $85 and on my 6 month of the promo my account was frozen so I could not make any more payments. I am now being sued for $600. There has to be a law firm that can help all of us out here.

How did they know about the 5 month increase from my actual bank, and why are they purposely imitating Capital One? A Google search quickly made me realize I’m not alone here.

    I have two cards with these crooks! One for $2250 and $500. First issue #1: I paid off my $500 card and decided not to use it because I wanted available credit from all my cards that I have for higher credit ratio. After a year of having my card they began charging $5 monthly for their annual fee. Mind you I had a “0” balance. I called and asked if they could charge it as a one time fee so I wouldn’t have a balance and they said they couldn’t it had to be monthly.. What!! Because of this I would always hold a balance with these ridiculous scammers!! Issue #2: Their scoring is crazy wrong. I mean not 5 or 10 points off. I mean 60-100 points off. I went to each of the bureaus site and got my score and credit one was off tremendously!! I’m not sure what system they use, but it’s totally inaccurate.

    Issue #3: On my $2250 card they were charging me $17 a month for credit protection which I did not sign up for!! I never noticed before until I looked at my statement. I immediately called them because I did not sign up for that. Please people look at your statements thoroughly.. I didn’t at first because I was spending crazy on that card and felt the charges were accurate. These people stole $17 a month for over a year because I was too stupid to look at my statements thoroughly. I say stole because I never ever signed up for credit protection!!! So they took it!!! Overall, since my $500 card is new I’m closing that card with those people. If I were you I would steer away!! They are crooks!!! Go somewhere who doesn’t charge annual fees or if so it’s a one time fee!

    I got this card when I was trying to rebuild my credit. Now that my credit is doing better and my card is paid off, I noticed each month a tiny fee, but it was billed as interest on purchases. How could that be? I haven't made any purchases with that card in over 4 months. The annual fee billed monthly is paid in full each month, so why do I keep getting this tiny fee? After calling customer service, I was transferred and escalated to 3 different "supervisors" until finally, they said the next supervisor would call me (she has not). Allegedly, the interest on purchases comes from the annual fee being billed. I asked how is this possible when both of these charges are billed to my card on the day the statement closes? Also, how do you charge interest on a fee, as a purchase? No one could explain that, hence why I am waiting for that call back (I'm sure I'll have to call them again).

    The funniest part about their lie/explanation, I actually have 2 cards with Credit One, both charged the annual fee monthly, yet only 1 is still being billed interest for purchases since being paid off. Makes me wonder how long they've been jerking me around with this fee. If I am being billed on nothing, who knows if they were accurately billing my interest when I held a balance. It just stood out more now, since there were no purchases! Consumers beware!

Instead they recommended getting a loan, selling assets and even getting a second job, just to name a few.

    This is the absolute WORST credit card for anyone, any reason under the sun. First and foremost, the credit card company is located in India. Their online website is constantly broken, not allowing sign in and a laborious payment chat you must go through to make a payment. Secondly, the payment often does NOT go through, because most banks consider this vendor to be fraudulent and block payment. The BIGGER problem though, is their system does NOT notify you when payment has difficulties. This may be deliberate on their part, you get stuck with automatic $30 late fee. To PAY your bill in general is costs $9.95 on their website and over the phone. THERE IS NOT AUTO PAY.

    Setting up a payment from Wells Fargo has also proven problematic, thus I'm stuck CALLING every 30 days to speak to someone for 20 mins to process a payment. The CREDIT LINE IS LOW. If you're building or rebuilding your credit, I have had amazing experiences with Mission Lane and Mercury. Both cards have AUTOPAY and work like normal credit card companies. The initial credit lines were DOUBLE what was offered by Credit One. Additionally, I have had all 3 cards for exactly 1 year now, and Mission and Mercury have just increased my credit lines by 50%. Credit One declined any increase. YOU WILL GET STUCK with this card. Again, contact is difficult, website doesn't work, no auto pay, and FEE for processing payments. For a pissy little credit card with $800 credit line, it ends up costing me money every month - like $40 just in payment fees. It's a SCAM. BEWARE.

I submitted a written message via their website a week ago (I'm still waiting for a response), finally called today. I'm guessing that their support is in India: they (initial support AND supervisor) had no idea what Quicken was, could only say that their website is working, and would not escalate or refer my issue to technical support. After explaining the technical difference (I'm an IT professional), the supervisor could not say anything other than they have no problems with their website and hung up on me.

    In my experience Credit One Bank lacks many of the most commonplace technical abilities (e.g. downloading my transactions in a .QIF or .CSV file) - suffice it to say this is not the first time I've tried to get something that is a regular feature from other institutions.

    Had credit card for about 5 years, paid full balance off every month. No problem with card, till my credit card was hacked. About 2 years ago, after that nothing but trouble with company. Took them 6 to 8 months to find out, card was hacked and it wasn't anything to do with me. They never reset bounce right, pay $25 for new card which I could not use while they were checking where the hack came from. Tried to charge me interest on the money from the amount the hacker added to the card. Call the company several times customer service. Got zero results, now they sent my card to a collection agency. On money that I didn't use that was done by the hacker. Got zero results from them, even though I paid extra to have security on the card to cover all that. Recommend no one get this card or try to use it.

    I didn't get a credit card in my teens/early 20s. BIG mistake. NO ONE would take a chance on me at 25+; not because of bad credit, but "insufficient credit history." Credit One at age 31 gave me a chance! Kept the card almost 3 years, now onto "bigger and better" cards with a score 700+. Had they not given me a chance, I'd be SOL as now my dad is passed on and I only have my own credit to rely on if I need it. Thank you Credit One! Product A+++; does as intended--CREDIT BUILDER (even at 31!).

    I first opened an account with Credit One to begin building a credit history. Over five years, I've encountered numerous problems with Credit One's online payment system. Most of these have been fairly trivial (momentary unplanned disruptions in access to the customer website; failure of the telephone system for activating a new card, requiring me to call in to customer service and spend an unreasonable amount of time on hold to complete a process that should take less than two minutes), but the most recent one isn't, and in all honesty, a credit card company that charges fees and interest has an obligation to ensure that its technology works and that its customers have access to customer support in order to resolve problems that might occur when it doesn't.

    I have often considered taking my business elsewhere, but figured it made sense for credit-building purposes to keep this account open instead, regardless of the annual fees and iffy technical stability. At this point, I'm seriously reconsidering that decision. Two years ago, my spouse and I had to change our checking account number after our bank's database was compromised. At the time, I updated my Credit One account to take payment from the new account number and removed the old one, and since then have been paying my bill from the new checking account. There have been occasional hiccups with the payment system--in May of this year (2020), for example, I received a message indicating that my payment hadn't been received when, in fact, it had been received and was reflected in the account overview when I logged into the website.

    This month (June 2020), I attempted payment twice. On 01 June, I logged in and made a payment from the website. On 03 June, I received an email indicating that the payment had been returned (though no indication was given as to why it had been returned). Since I knew I had more than enough money in my checking account to cover the payment and had no further information at hand, I assumed there was some kind of momentary glitch on the part of either Credit One or my bank, signed back into Credit One's site, and ran the payment again.

    Imagine my surprise when I received an email indicating that my account had been closed due to "multiple" (read: TWO) returned payments. I called customer service immediately and discovered that they seem to have no protocol for dealing with this situation that THEIR payment system caused, and which stands to damage my credit rating if it is not resolved from their end, as their system automatically reports the closure of the account in terms that are injurious to the account-holder's credit rating.

    After an hour on the phone with two different agents, I learned that Credit One's system had reverted to using the old checking account number *even though I was selecting the current checking account number on the payment system interface.* As someone who's worked with banking databases and web interface development, this suggests to me that the database containing clients' payment information has been incorrectly restored/merged from an old backup and/or that the client-side interface isn't handling database calls correctly.

    Worse, I don't think the customer service agent I spoke to actually understood what I meant when I explained that the account from which the system was attempting to take payment had been closed for two years, that I had not selected that account on the payment interface, and that this was a significant technical problem on THEIR end that needs to be addressed.

    Please note that I don't fault the individual customer service agents for this: they were polite and did their best, but they clearly haven't been trained to deal with this kind of situation. I suspect that they may not have the technical background to understand the nature of the problem in question. That said, the company has made resolving this problem quite difficult and clearly hasn't provided its CS agents with a resolution path for this kind of situation, which is absolutely unacceptable.

    I was given a kind of stop-gap resolution path requiring me to get an "account verification letter" from my bank and fax it to Credit One. Given that all I'm asking them to do is notice that they've been trying to take payment from an account I removed from their system two years ago, this seems patently ridiculous, but I'm going to do it anyway, because the CS agents don't get to decide how to handle the case. They're "just following orders," so to speak. The fact that this should never have happened in the first place and wasn't my fault seems beyond their understanding.

    I've historically avoided dealing with Credit One's customer service department by phone because there's always an unreasonably long hold time (note to companies: if you find that you're always "experiencing high volume," the solution is to hire more support staff and provide better training; when customers hear that phrase in the hold message every time they call in, we know it's a lie and that volume is ALWAYS high). However, regardless of the fact that it's 2020 and both email and internet chat have been around for decades, Credit One makes neither option readily available.

    I'm still in the midst of trying to resolve this problem, but at this point I can't recommend this company to potential customers. CreditOne seemed like a reasonable place to begin building a credit history, but if they don't handle this situation appropriately, it will actually *damage* my credit history instead. Proceed with caution, and if you do find yourself using Credit One to build credit, move on to a better credit card company as soon as possible.

    Very disappointment with this card. First there was an annual fee which I missed in the fine print. Second they charge interest on every transaction at a high rate. I realize that I have just gone through a bankruptcy due to a failed business. I really don't have the problem with the annual fee if I would have known up front instead of the fine print but interest on all purchases regardless of payoff no way no how. Could have gotten a prepaid card that builds credit without interest unless you are late on your payment.

    DO NOT OPEN AN ACCOUNT WITH THIS COMPANY! I have had two cards with them and pay them off every month. In March of this year I see my statement and there are over $800 in fraudulent charges. One of the charges is for $650 at at grocery store. The crooks had tried to use the card at a Walmart and it was declined. But the Kroger AND these idiots approved a charge for $650. So I call in and report this. I did NOT lose my card and it was in my possession. Furthermore these stores are nowhere close to where I live. The customer service rep flags my account, they send me another card, and do an investigation.

    Fast forward to 3 weeks ago and I open my account app and see ALL the charges have been added back on to my account. I called again and was told that it was proven the card was used with a chip, and THUS I am accountable. I lost my everloving mind on these people. I told them they DID NOT do an investigation because if they pulled the security cameras they would have seen that it was not me. The brazen thief's even got gas at the Kroger gas station right next to the store. I use Exxon and Shell only for the detergents in the gas, and do not use grocery store gas due to the issues with my car.

    I was told to REOPEN the investigation, I had to make a police report. And lo and behold, another credit card was stolen from my mailbox and somehow activated. The jerks went to Kroger again, and spent 350.00 and then filled up their car again. I called the police and also Chase Bank and they plan to open a very thorough investigation as I never even received this card. But obviously to anyone with a brain these are the SAME people.

    So I have had to yet spend valuable time trying to deal with Credit One and resend in everything I had before with a police report. The very fact that Walmart turned the card down for no ID, and then they went across the street, would tell a fraud investigator that it WAS NOT ME! I have an ID to match the card. But not these people. Oh no. So when this is over I will close over 3 grand in credit just to get away from them and will tell everyone I can about this deplorable treatment. I let Credit One know in advance this was going to happen. They could care less. Try Merrick Bank if you need a good card without a sky high credit score and much better customer service. STAY AWAY from this outfit.

    Utterly disgusted with this company. It took two times for this company to close my account. Their employees lied of closing my account, mailing closed account documents, and they purposely harass you to pay late fees on the account the day before the new billing statement comes out. Their tactics to gouge money out of their customers is horrific. I will never recommend, perform transactions, or promote this company. Then the nerve to act like they are performing you a favor when they rescind these monthly "annual charges" and weird time of the month late fee charges.

    Again their employees should have access to all customer information that is deemed necessary to help the customer such as "knowing the date of the next charge to the customer's account". They should also record the conversations as evidence of words exchanged since their employees are not trained to properly document key pieces of information from those phone conversations. People stick to Capital One, Discover, Visa, Chase, and more reputable companies for opening lines of credit to protect yourself from leeches of the earth like Credit One Bank.

Every month I have tried to pay my bill, the payments get returned. It forces me to have to deal with their "fantastic" customer service to pay my bill, late because it takes 5 days to process and tell me it gets returned, but while speaking to these "people" I have to pay a $5-$10 processing fee...

Just got an email saying my account is being locked out and I have a much larger balance because of interest and late fees and whatnot. Great...

    I call to get this resolved and am hung up on twice, then switched hands thrice after to basic Account Managers who refused to give me any information AND they DON'T HAVE A FRAUD TEAM!

    I’m reading these reviews. Smh at the self entitled irresponsible people complaining about getting late fees when paying their bill late. Whether it be an hr or a month late is late. I was given a $2k limit and two months later they gave me a small but appreciated cli of $200 which brought my new cl to $2200. Since owning this card I have paid a total of $2 if I’m not mistaken. My credit score was in the 640’s when I decided to get back in the credit game because my wife and I were buying a house and would carry a relatively modest mortgage.

    In 10 months all of my scores have increased by a lot, Fico 8 Experian 725, Equifax 740, & Trans Union 737, Vantage 3.0 Experian 738, Equifax 744, & Trans Union 738 and one reason is because Credit One reports my onetime payments every single month like clockwork just like they would if you were late. And by the way credit card banks are not allowed to report a late payment to the credit bureaus unless you are at least 30 days late. Some of these reviews are exaggeration and or flat out lies and you only know the rules these cc issuers play by to know when some reviews are laughable!

    Btw I have never used the express payment and have had no trouble paying on time. Yep they take a few days to credit back posted payments to your cl but so does many other highly thought of banks.

    Lastly, I decided to close my account in Feb. of this year. I spoke to an account Rep. and I told her I wanted my account closed. I paid off my remaining balance at the time, my account came to $0.00, I checked.

I hung up with her and a few hours later, got on and paid the $75 annual fee in it's entirety, just so that I wouldn't ever have to deal with this company again. When I logged on, the amount showed that I owed a total of $77.12, of which $60 was due. This was again not reflecting what the supervisor had just quoted me.

    I have been with Credit One for 2 years, great payment history with them, even carried a ZERO balance for 5 months, finally called in yesterday to close the account. Ann the first lady was so rude and didn't even try to save me as a customer. I explained I was getting charged $3.95 a month for the statement fee on a Zero Balance account. Remind you the statements are Electronic, so if I kept it opened I would be flushing $40.00 down the drain a year. A Very sneaky company, no high credit limit options here, very rude customer service, I even called back to complain about ANN, got another foreigner on the line, so overall do not waste your time or money on this company. There is a reason they have very bad reviews. You have been warned.

    They charge an annual fee...$5 p/mo...then charge .42 interest on annual mo/fee. Wow. Interest rates went down, as of today, in these hard times...they jacked theirs UP 2%. Unbelievable. Checking my CBR over the last 4 years I have been with them, NO payments have been reported of my timely, 4 year tenure with them. No help to build ones' credit profile. No chat...when I call, I could hardly understand the rep as repeating the conversation gets annoying, that is after a LONG hold time, more annoying. Please be wary of whom you choose to have a credit card with, as there are other, better choices. I have been very patient, and have now chose to dump these price- gouging manipulators out of my wallet.

I’m very thankful for this bank as they were my last resort to reestablishing my credit along with my Capital One that I have! When nobody else would approve me, This Bank was there for me when I needed them the most! If you’re going to have credit cards to pay interest and late fees and be Irresponsible, then of course you’re going to give a bad review...

    In the past three months, two of my online payments paid through my bank have not posted to my Credit One account. The first time I called them and they waived the late fee and somehow found my payment. They said the cc number had changed and I was using the old one on my remittance from my bank. I changed it to the new one and the next payment was correctly applied. Now it has happened again and I am very frustrated. When you call they tell you to print something from your bank to verify and mail to them. I don't have but a few months left to pay and I am done with them. Of course they charge you interest and do not credit their mistake. Be careful. There are some great cards out there just not CREDIT ONE!

Yes they are fee driven and their rates are high, but well worth the time I have been with them.

    I was preapproved for a Credit One credit card so I applied. I was instantly approved for a $2100 credit limit. Before activating the credit card, I read my user agreement. The first thing I noticed (other than the high annual fee) was the daily interest model they use. You are charged interest every day so you will end up paying interest whether or not you pay the bill in full each month.

    I read countless negative reviews but decided to keep the card anyways, as most bad reviews seemed to be a result of poor credit practices and as this is a credit rebuilding card, they are taking more of a risk than other creditors since they primarily target people with bad or no credit. Let me say that Credit One makes everything more difficult than it needs to be. For starters, I was patiently awaiting my annual fee to be charged since I’ve seen reviews that state customers didn’t know it was charged and then they received interest fees, late payment fees, and negative remarks on their credit reports. To prevent that from happening, I downloaded the app and signed up for daily balance alerts. One entire billing cycle went by and I wasn’t charged an annual fee even though the user agree states that the annual fee will be immediately withdrawn from your available credit.

    Then lo and behold a couple of weeks later my daily alert showed a balance of $75. I immediately made an $80 payment to be sure I covered the interest. I was a little peeved that they charged me on an unexpected date and I could absolutely see how that could have led to late fees and late credit remarks but I anticipated this and planned accordingly. To me this practice was rather sketchy and added to the distrust I have of them.

    Next they wanted me to verify my bank account for an $80 payment. The app stated that two small deposits would be made and that I had to verify them. I patiently waited and no such deposits were made. However my payment was withdrawn without any problems. I am however afraid to even use the card since my next payment they may request proof from my bank that I am authorized to use the account and most banks will NOT provide such a letter on their letterhead as Credit One requests for some reason. Such a request is silly, inconvenient and impractical.

    The other problem I’ve experienced is 3 times already I’ve tried to login to my account only to be told that my password was wrong. My phone saves all my passwords and this is the only account I’ve had this problem with. Even entering the username and password manually I wasn’t able to login and had to reset my password 3 times! I imagine this must be the result of faulty software or data storage on their part and just adds to the inconvenience of this card.

    I was going to keep the card in case of emergencies since I already paid the annual fee but I am afraid that if I make a large purchase I will not be able to make the payment due to their authorization polices and I will either have to pay the fee to make a next day payment over the phone (which I don’t really understand since you are still providing your bank info) or I’ll have to buy a money order and risk them claiming they didn’t receive it or holding on to it for too long. Both of those outcomes would ultimately add to additional interest due to their daily interest model. I think the reason they have such an impractical policy may be due to customers disputing the payments and as their clientele is comprised of mostly people with poor credit practices, they’ve probably been burned. However they should reserve such unnecessary authorization methods only from those that have disputed charges and/or payments.

    Overall the card is useless as I am too afraid to use it and it’s way more trouble than it’s worth, at least for me. If you are genuinely trying to rebuild your credit and don’t mind all the hassles they inflict on their customers then this card may help you. However, if you are able to get a different credit card I highly suggest avoiding this one. The only reason I gave them 2 stars instead of 1 is because they give people a second or first chance at building credit...however, with their practices you may end up with a lower credit score than before. Beware, you’ve been warned!

    About a year ago I got a card from Credit One Bank for $500 limit. I used it a few times here and there, always paid on or before the due date and always more than what was the minimum due. A few months ago I had about $350 credit still left on there, I was making additional payments to pay it off. Well for some reason a payment that was processed didn’t go thru Bc I forgot to take the funds out of my other bank account and make them available (I can put funds in a virtual vault). So when I realized it a few hours later, I made them available and waited a few days and they never tried again to take the funds out and next thing I know, I can’t login into their site. So I call them and get someone in India apologizing for the inconvenience and she would be happy to help. Well, they didn’t help anything, the account had been closed because the payment did not go thru.

    No phone call, no email, they didn’t try to process it again or anything. She said it was closed Bc of a failed payment,1 failed payment! “No payment was even due and this was an extra payment”, I tried to explain to her. It Didn’t matter, the account was closed, cannot reopen and after all the fees and everything I got a bill for 750! So I’m paying that off now Bc they immediately put that on my credit. It’s really a shame when you get a card like this to help your credit and it does the exact opposite! They know what they were doing, and know that it is wrong! Take your business to Capital One or somewhere else that is reliable because the customer service is horrible and so is the company! Hope this helps someone else for not falling for this. I mean, yeah it was my fault for not having the funds available, but they shouldn’t have immediately shut the card and my account down without trying to contact me!

    Horrible service, they make you pay a annual fee as soon as they issue the card. I WAS OWING $75.00 before even using the card. My limit was $300 and I opened the card with a balance of $225.00. After the first year they divide the annual fee in monthly installments that are deducted from your monthly payments. They force you to make payments online by only allowing you to only make payments using your checking account and it takes 4-5 days for processing. They give you an option to make payments and have funds available immediately but they charge you an extra $10 dollars to do so.

    Their customer service are over in India and you can't understand what most of them are saying from their broken English. Most of them are rude and get angry when you tell them you can't understand them. I was misinformed numerous times on how long it takes to process a payment. If you don't make your payment on or before the actual due date they charge you a $26.00 late fee because there is no grace period. Lastly I made a payment on my due date and then I made another payment a few days later expecting it to be applied to the coming month's payment but instead they applied it to the same period as my prior payment and hit me with a 30 day late as well as a fee.

Then I added my bank account to my credit one profile so I could make frequent payments and keep my balance low. They make you jump though hoops just to use your own bank account.

After going through that hassle I still wasn't allowed to pay my bill. I tried using their app and their website and just kept getting an error that I have to call customer service. So I called customer service and was left on hold.

    No one ever comes to the phone to help you. I learned the hard way that the only way to get anyone on the phone is call back and select the option that card was stolen.

The employee kept telling me I was not allowed to pay my bill using my bank account until the day before it was due.

The bank teller even got on the phone to inform customer service that they don't write letters for individual people and asked if a voided check would be enough. Credit one kept giving the run around and said that I have to wait until I get my bank statement, (which isn't due until next week) and send them a picture of that.

They finally closed the account but reported it to my credit report that they closed the account, not by my request.

After paying off the balance, I called in to close the credit card because I didn't want to keep paying the annual fee, which is actually broken down into monthly charges unlike other credit cards I've had with annual fees. To keep me as a customer, they offered to waive the fees and give me a $25 credit if I kept the card open, so I agreed. Everything was fine at first, but after about 5 months they started charging me the fees again, conveniently after I racked up a new balance. I figured there was a mistake, but when I called in the rep I spoke to refused to acknowledge the agreement or even credit back that month's fee that I did not agree to. I would've closed it in the first place if I would've known they would bait and switch like that.

    I again asked them to close this credit card and they made sure to let me know that they will keep charging me the fees until the balance is paid off regardless of it being closed or not.

    I got this card for my husband to build his credit back up. He now has two of them. They have done their job for positive reports to the credit bureau. One card has $99 annual fee, the other is $60 annually. BOTH have a $19.00 annual fee for authorized users, any credit limit increase has to be PAID FOR - yeah there is a charge for that too. Authorized users are treated like dirt. Any other bank I'm able to contact with a name change (marriage), or dispute a charge. Credit One requires my husband to contact them with my name change, even though if I have a marriage certificate, it's obvious that he already agreed to change my name to his.

    I ordered my husband a personalized gift. A surprise. A SECRET!!!! Now I need to dispute the charge and they REQUIRE HIM to file the dispute. They even refused to provide ME the fax number to send the dispute. Capital One changed my name immediately upon filing the legal proof with them that my name changed. Capital One allows me to dispute fraudulent charges, or items not received. After yesterday's conversation and even the refusal of the fax number to me, I applied him for another Capital One card, which I will be transferring these balances to IMMEDIATELY so I can close these cards.

    Their online system is also sub-par. When I make a charge, it takes DAYS to be able to see that reflected in the balance on the app or website. Our other credit cards show new charges before even walking from the cash register to the car. When the statement is "ready" per the text alert I get, it is never actually ready. I had to wait 3 days to view it this month. Yeah, the card has done its job to bump up his credit score, but its usefulness no longer outweighs the high fees, terrible customer service, and sub-par online access. If you need a credit card to build credit, try Capital One FIRST!!!! This company is a complete joke.

    I frequently have tried to make payments on my account and have had their website down or giving false information (over limit, late payment, etc.). Their website gives no way to contact them via email. At one point my information was entirely unavailable to me for no reason. Over the years with them I've come to believe that this confusion of their customers may be deliberate; the objective seems to be to trap their customers into "owing" more interest. They have limits on number of payments per month, the confusion and misinformation contribute to late payment unless an "express fee" (almost $10.00) is paid to ensure a payment is registered on time. Otherwise you may find that money you paid online might not be posted on time. I now believe this company goes right up to the line of illegality to manipulate their vulnerable subprime members.

    ZERO STARS! Credit One Bank and credit cards are an easy way to learn a hard lesson! They remove $75 off your credit limit for a fee right from the start. So your $300 limit automatically is $225. Their interest is unreal and if you are late, they tack on the late fees so you can't pay that in addition to what you already owed either. Don't default tho! They'll keep your account open for many months, reporting all this on your credit. Then they sell your account to a collection agency that reports on your credit too while C1B continues to report your debt to your report as well. C1B reports the balance increases each month (from an account that supposedly belongs to the collection agency), they report the accruing number of days that you're late and report negative remarks on the account that again, now belongs to the collection company that bought it.

    Oh! After disputing all this, C1B finally remarks that the account is a charge off of a bad debt and then finally they say it's closed... All while still reporting the increases in the balance and accruing days late. Nice! Looks like more disputes to come! SO... if you're credit isn't great and they offer you a small amount of credit to rebuild or start your credit, don't fall for it! When something happens and you can't make your payment, it's the beginning of Credit One waging war against you! I'm still cleaning up their mess on my credit report and I don't know if my credit report will ever be correct. BE AWARE! BUILD YOUR CREDIT ANOTHER WAY!

    This bank is operating in the 1900 century, when this is the electronic era. This bank doesn't allow customers to make payments more than four (4) payments per month. This is the most outrageous policy I've ever heard from a credit card company. I went to make a payment today and this is what I got "We are unable to process your request. Please contact Customer Service at 1-877-825-3242. Message Notes 1/25/2020 Payment Limit: You have reached your payment limit. Four payments have been received within a 30-day period." This is unbelievable and I do not think this is even legal. No company can deny me the right to make a payment whenever I want.

    I called and they said the same thing, then I asked the girl to cancel the credit card immediately and she transferred me to a different department where a guy answered and offered me a $10.00 discount for not canceling the card to which I did not accept. He said that Credit One Ban is not denying me the right to pay, that I can go and get a MoneyGram and email it to them. Have anyone heard such a request from a customer that wants to pay off the active balance on the credit card? Never heard this before. I just cancel the credit card and I do not want to hear or know anything more about this credit card company/bank. However, I will keep following up to be sure they did cancel the credit card and as soon as I am able to pay off the balance of $28.94 will request a cancellation letter stating that the card has been canceled by the cardholder, not by the Credit One Bank.

    My husband and I had a card with a $300 limit. The first thing Credit One did was charge the whole $75 annual fee up front, when over the phone we were told it would be split up over 12 months. Later down the road, my husband and I were divorced, we were to pay off the card and close the account. Before I could pay off the card online, it required a bank verification process before it would let us. Then after you confirm their debits/credits made to your account a few days later, we were able to pay it off online. Then when I tried to call back to close it, they had added a $19 user fee to the credit card account, and would not close it until that new fee was paid. Due to our divorce decree, this account needed to be closed permanently but the customer service rep kept refusing to do so. He wanted to give us a $50 credit towards the 19 charge, leave the card open with a $30 credit, which was not needed.

    I had to ask this rep to close the account 4 or 5 times and to just credit their fraud fee of $19. He finally did close it after I had to yell at him. Not sure what is wrong with these people, but instead of helping you build up bad credit, they are totally taking advantage and should be an F with the Better Business Bureau. Our divorce decree said the card had to be closed---but they don't want you to pay it off ever, they just want to keep dinging you with charges.

I then spoke to a supervisor, and then a manager, just trying to get a direct line number to call back and give to the police when I file a report. Apparently, they do not have a direct line.

    Since we didn't use the card, we tried to cancel the card. The operator said he spoke to the supervisor and would delete the fee and close the account. Did this several months in a row, and spoke to the operator stating they still didn't close the account. Then the operator would speak to the supervisor and was given the approval of closing the account and not having to pay the annual fee.

    After several months we were getting monthly bills with a 0 balance. Then after a half year, our credit score declined because they posted a late fee of 350 dollars for over 120 days late. I filed for a dispute on the TransUnion and Equifax, but they sent back a note stating the fee was correct. But at the same time we received a check from credit one for the entire late fee. Once you get the card and don't want it, it's an uphill battle to cancel it, you'll end up speaking to an operator, then they will repeatedly state that they can't do that, but then they'll speak to a supervisor who supposedly closed the account, but in reality doesn't happen, and will be posted on your credit score.

I got a membership with Experian, including credit monitoring. For 2 years I've had this service, and for several months they kept pushing Credit One to help rebuild my credit. I was very hesitant, but after their pre approval I allowed them to conduct a hard check of my credit. Then I received an approval code stating I was receiving their Platinum Visa Card with a 2,000.00 limit. Three weeks later I received a card with a 300.00 limit, minus their 75.00 fee? LOL! If I knew the credit limit would only be for 300.00, I would NOT have authorized a hard credit check! This is deceptive, borderline predatory! Now what choices do I have? The credit check was done, which is already a negative! If I do not activate and use their visa card that will appear as another negative against me!

    I'm filing a complaint through the attorney general's office against Credit One Bank and Experian. In my opinion, this is a scam. A credit line of 300.00 will not help your credit score until you hit 2 years or so. Not to mention, if you apply for other credit that 300.00 limit will be the proverbial Albatross around your neck. What irritates me the most is the deception used. Luring you in with a Platinum Visa card with a pre approved 2,000.00 limit!!! Even if it were 1,000.00, okay. But 300.00?

    Credit One had sent me a new card and in the process of activating it they said my account had been closed because it was reported as a fraudulent account.

Still have to pay introductory yearly fee off the balance now so more debt minus any compensatory services of the said year when I got the card.

    I needed to know how long payment would take (longest one I had ever seen I think it's like 7 business days and the credit I guess doesn't go back in your card for another 12) because I had more cash back in mind and I tried out Amazon wardrobe for my kids. I needed a credit card to start. I figured I better pay down the balance to ensure the available credit was sufficient and made a bigger payment on it and I got an alert from my bank wanting verification and I had to contact fraud prevention and cancel the alert and it said I had to reapply the charge from the credit card account. I bet I spent a week trying to log back in before Credit One closed my account and I wasn't late on my payment. I was making a second payment and my bank put a hold on the transaction and Credit One closed my account and now I cant access any online payment methods.

    I explained it all to some guy. I couldn't even understand half of what he was saying who was very unhelpful and I got the impression that he does this all the time. So I started looking for any other means of online payment services to deal with payments on the now closed account before the next month's payment is due but these guys don't seem to accept any and the guy on the phone who I really don't want to talk to again mentioned in thick accent the ten dollar fee for paying by phone and worst of all my credit rating which I had managed to get to 640 is now at 613.

    Be very wary of doing business with Credit One Bank. They do everything they can to ensure that you will be late on your payment in order to extract exorbitant fees. Fortunately, I paid my bill early, but just a few days before the bill would have been due they locked my online account. That makes paying the bill nearly impossible without--you guessed it--having to pay an exorbitant fee to express pay it via phone.

    The online account lockout was completely bogus because I'd used the same device to both check the account and pay the bill previously. They claimed it was a "new device" and sent a text message with an authorization code. I received the code and duly entered it, only for it to fail three times. This was not rocket science on my end. I can read and type fairly accurately. When I called customer service as instructed on the screen I was told to wait 24 hours and try again! Really! As far as I'm concerned this was unfairly putting the burden on me to work with their system, which is either defective or purposefully made to make it harder for their customers to transact business with them.

They stated I would need a letter from Bank of America on letterhead that verifies the owner of the checking account matches the name on the credit card account and that the payment received was authorized by the owner. She also stated this document must include a name and phone number of a contact at the financial institution. Mind you; this is at Christmas time. Are you serious?! Nope don't think so. So I asked to close the card. She says she will need to get a supervisor to help me with that. After being on the phone with these fools for 24 minutes & 38 seconds, I ended the call. I will write a letter to them and file complaints and reviews anywhere and everywhere I can.

    BTW - This is after trying to use my card while I was in Mexico last year, and they refused to authorize transactions even though I notified them I would be traveling there. I even called them from Mexico, and they still refused to let me use my card. I will never do business with these people again. I paid off my other card today, and once it shows a $0 balance, I will close both cards! Mind you; these cards have minimal Credit Limits of $1,850 & $1,150. I will just use my Amex or BOA Card or USAA Cards that have $5k to $16.5K credit limits. If you want to be treated like dirt, go ahead and use these fools!

    I recently discovered (during a monthly review of my credit scores) that not only was I issued a card from this company with a $500 limit (Oct 27), the card had a balance of $519 (as of 12/6). Of course, I filed a dispute with all 3 bureaus and Credit One, but the really puzzling part is that all 3 bureaus list my credit as frozen (I froze it in August) and there are NO hard inquiries to my credit prior to being issued this card (which I never would have requested).

    On a similar note, my wife does have a card through them, which has also been hacked. She froze it in August (same time as I froze my credit), but they have since reissued the card twice without authorization and her online account keeps getting changed (they tell her it is her that is making the changes - it is not). On that card, there are over $500 in cash advances (we have cash in savings and debit cards for easy access w/o fees), and as recently as Black Friday, over $1k in new charges at stores we never go to (Ross, Walmart). Again, this company is allowing this rampant theft to continue without any intervention or even giving us enough details to file a police report.

    Crooks! Closed this account. They charged me for items I never authorized, I reported them to Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC). I called this company to argue the charges. They stated that automatically the charges for credit protection was added without my consent. STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY! They credited me back, LIARS & THIEVES DECEIVING PEOPLE.
