I am not a customer, but I received a text message allegedly from them providing me with a code to activate an account. I called them and the call center I was routed to was apparently in India and I tried to find out if the message was legitimate or not. The operator kept asking me for personal information to allegedly look up to see if someone had hacked my info and was trying to open a credit card in my name. Having worked in the banking industry I knew he did not need my social security number, phone number, or address to look up my name in their system so I ended the call. I will now have to closely monitor my credit score to see if unusual charges start getting added to my name.

I have only been a Merrick Bank customer for a short time. I have already been in contact with support due to typos on the merrickback.com website - which already made it hard to make a good early impression(Using "off" instead of "of" in several frames). If the inaccuracies ended there, I wouldn't be so embarrassed of/for Merrick Bank. I paid my balance off completely 3 days ago, and I get an email today showing a minimum amount due(Apparently old information from my account statement balance as of 4 days ago). It was obviously inaccurate, and I was able to quickly login to my account and verify 0.00 due and 0.00 total balance.
Whatever antiquated system that is causing you to make mistakes like this is also probably costing you business. Why even bother sending customers old emails with outdated statement information? Who approved this process as a great idea? Literally all of your competition that I've ever banked with or made payments to online seem to process payments nearly instantly and certainly do not send me communications regarding a false balance, inaccurate and outdated by SEVERAL days. Sad state of affairs.

I was on the phone trying to resolve the issue of receiving my credit card over two months later. I disagreed with the late payment report that was placed on the account, and I hadn’t received a card or correspondence. No one called me back to settle the issue, and I have noticed Merrick has placed a late payment status on my credit report, and we haven’t resolved the issue to this date. This is very frustrating for a new customer. Can someone please contact me. This makes me leery of your practices. I just told a few people to apply for your credit card, now with my issue being unresolved I will have to inform the people to hold off until my issue can be resolved. This is absolutely POOR customer service, and unacceptable. Please contact me to complete my process completely. Thanks so much. Respectfully!

I have been with Merrick for a few years - I got on a mission to pay down my CC's and I got Merrick fully paid and kept my Card for emergencys or a vacation which I have planned in 3weeks. My Merrick card and one other was what was going to help fund such a needed break. Well, guess what? My card which expires 6/27 was cancelled today for "inactivity." No phone call, no text, no email, no letter. So in conclusion Merrick sucks! No other way to put it. You are a number and nothing more. They are fine when that high interest money is coming in but when things get better, they drop you like a hot rock. Terrible way to do business.

PIN change. Issue changing the PIN online. Called customer service. Long story short.... you verbally give the new PIN number you want to the representative over the phone instead of using the keypad and type it in!!!! I told the representative...I will type in in the keypad and was told...you have to verbally give me the 4 digit PIN number. Had no choice but to do so and then immediately changed it online.
I called back, spoke to another customer service rep and same procedure; verbally give the representative the PIN number and then you can use your Merrick card and PIN if needed. I don't like that at all.. We all know, including the Merrick Bank reps....you don't give your PIN over the phone. Luckily I had access to my Merrick card...PIN restored and was able to reset it online. That needs to END now Merrick bank. You don't provide your new PIN number verbally over the phone. Use the keypad.

I was offered this opportunity to use Merrick bank's credit card... As I am repairing my credit rating due to have extraordinarily high medical bills I thought this was a great opportunity to build my credit.... I watch my credit like a hawk in fact I check it everyday... When I received the terms of the agreement I followed it to the t. You can only pay with your bank details... So they have the access to make the payment through their service... No debit cards, no credit cards. nothing. It has to go through your bank directly...
Upon making the first withdrawal they made a mistake and said I was overdrawn... I lost 36 points in my credit rating. This was devastating at this it took me almost 6 months to build up so I think anyone choosing this Bank should look elsewhere... When this occurs nothing can be done. You have to rebuild your credit and this is due to this bank. I cannot tell you how devastated I was to find out that their mistake caused me an enormous decrease in a very hard-earned credit rating. I went from good to Fair which was devastating to me... This will impact me on many levels so I recommend you not use this Bank on any terms.

When I made my 1st payment, I first tried to make it from my debit card. When the assistant told me it would cost $6.95 to use my debit card, I said no and that I would use my checking account. The payment was made from my debit card, and I was charged that service fee twice. I am definitely not happy with that. I was charged almost $14 dollars after I declined to make a payment by a method that would charge me.

So far I am very happy with my account with Merrick Bank. I should be eligible for the increase that I am supposed to get when I made 6 payments on time. We will see what happens. I have made every payment on time, actually every payment has been early. So we will see.

I have enjoyed my experience with Merrick Bank's Credit Card department. I find the easy access to my credit score very helpful as I work to bring it up to where I'd like it.

Don't believe all the negative reviews online. Merrick Bank was great to me. Their customer service is great and live agents can be reached 24/7 which is awesome unlike a lot of credit cards that aren't reachable 24/7. I never had any issues with my card being declined when I was traveling outside the country.

Poor customer service support. When called for resolve issues, you get transferred to different people. And get confirmation from staff and they don’t understand customer support in overseas staff. Very frustrating and difficult to communicate with them.

The absolute worst experience ever with a credit card company. I would turn my auto pay off because I was gonna pay with another account and they would still try to do an ACH Transfer which would result in a 40 dollar return check fee. If this had happened once I would have said... Ok well I must have forgot, but for this to have happened at least 6 times is when you ask yourself what's going on. The rates are horrible and the are using a return check fee to get more money off the top. I'll never be a part of their business EVER again!! Find another card!!

I originally had a credit line of $5000 I made my first payment in a timely manner for the entire balance. I was notified the payment was returned, so I immediately called and found that a number was missing in my bank account information. I made the payment and corrected the issue with my routing number, however I was still charged a late fee and my credit limit was reduced to $3000. This was due to a typo error.

I had an issue with a company charging me for a yearly membership that wasn't mine. I'm not even sure how they got my card number! I reported the issue and everything seemed to t be taken care of. The funds were replaced and all was good. A few weeks later the money was taken back out of the account and the fraud team said I was actually responsible for the funds they didn't see anything fraudulent. Well that is absolutely untrue. This was not even my account.
I contacted Merrick talked to customer service and the fraudulent charge team and was basically told that it wasn't their problem it was a good charge and that's all they could do. I did my best to try to talk with him and reason with them let them understand I'm paying for something that isn't mine, they did not care. This was the worst experience I've ever had with a credit card company!!! Merrick Bank is only about taking care of themselves, the customers do not matter! I will never do business with him again and anyone I know I will tell they steal your money!

Great!! No complaints, since receiving this card have had no hiccups, haven’t had any issues. I would recommend this card to anyone looking for a card to help rebuild their credit, send me a link and I will post it, maybe the approval parameters would help, do you have an affiliate program.

I’ve had my card account for more than 2 years. I’ve never received a credit limit increase. I called to ask customer service and they were unable to give an adequate explanation. Two year of on time payments but somehow I still don’t meet the criteria for a CLI? Baloney! Subprime lender, which is widely known. But the key incentive for opening an account with Merrick is to increase your available credit, which in turn will help lower your utilization and improve your score. If your limit never increases it just becomes a burdensome card and you end up closing the account because there is no point in keeping it open.
