Merrick Bank gave me a chance to start building my credit and proving myself. I’ve made all on time payments and my credit score has went up. Also if you have so many on time payments, I believe it is six in a row they will give you an increase in the amount of credit on your card.

My experience, so far, with Merrick Bank has been really great. Merrick offered credit to me when other banks were saying no.

I will recommend Merrick Bank to anyone asking for credit card advice.

I'm very thankful that you gave me your chance with a credit card being my past you know I've not been the greatest. As you get older you realize what your credit means to you and you guys are fantastic about things. I love the fact that I have the credit card. It helps out in many ways and it's nice that I could pay it off before the due date and I don't have to wait for a bill to come in the mail and say you only can pay this amount. And I'm very satisfied with everything. Eventually my credit will go up and now I'll get a bigger balance whatever however that works and I'll keep making my payments and I'm very thankful that you took a chance on me.

When I signed up for this I flat out told you I get disability. My check doesn't come in until the 3rd of the month. My payment is due on the 1st. Then you charge me because the payment is late. How can I pay the bill if I don't get paid until 2 days later? You shouldn't charge fees when it's not my fault when I get paid.

I absolutely love how honest and on point Merrick bank is. If they say there going to higher your amount in 6 months if no late payments they do on exact date. My other cards I had to ask.

So far so good, I’d definitely recommend them. I’m rebuilding my credit since the pandemic caused a financial hardship for me. My APR and minimum payments are low and affordable for my income size. They doubled my line, as advertised, automatically after 6 months of on time payments.

The only card that delivered what it promised. I followed the guidelines; so many on time payments and my limit doubled. Worked great and opened doors for me.

Once established keep the amount owed low or at a zero balance to keep the line open.

My experience after having this card for so long always on time. Never an issue until I had a medical situation and had to file disability in 39 yrs of working. Never had to and Merrick Bank showed no empathy on assisting me with regards to making payments etc. They sent me to collections and I made an agreement. Paid and closed. I highly recommend you look into this card heavily prior to applying. Customer service is everything and they don't exemplify that which is sad when you really need them to step up. It was a very poor experience.

It is unethical what all CC companies do to the consumer. You offer to lead and then when we take you up on that offer, you penalize us why talking 1/2 of our payment. I finally froze my account and make $100 a month payments and they take $50 of my $100 payment of that so it will be a few years until it's paid off. I have learned my lesson and will never again borrow money and make banks wealthy. It is a trap designed to keep you a slave. Borrower is always slave to the lender.

I’ve been rebuilding my credit and I am very happy with Merrick. My limit was doubled automatically after six months like it said it would and it’s just been a great experience. The app is easy to use, I can set up payments and track everything very quickly and I have no complaints at all. The interest rate isn’t great, but most aren’t anymore. And I usually pay my balance off every month so I’m not really getting hit with interest anyways.

Merrick Bank is not a bank to obtain a credit card from. I have (unfortunately) several credit cards, and this card has had fraudulent charges from almost the beginning of my account. I reported all fraudulent charges. They reimbursed the charges and are now recharging them to my card stating that my statement shows the merchant reimbursed me. I looked through all of my statements, and mine don't show that. My statements should be identical to what they have. It was completely obvious these were fraudulent charges because the merchant charged the same exact price twice in the same day on more than one month. I called the merchant, and they said that I paid for Sports TV, which I most certainly did not. Most subscriptions also charge once a month. Nothing was predictable with these merchants, one month they charged $49.95, then the next month they would charge $49.95 two times in one day.
The bank doesn't want to resolve the issue. I question the authenticity of "the merchant returned the money" since my statements do not reflect this, but they say theirs do. I asked for paper copies of what they are showing since it's different than the statements they are providing online, but now I have to pay $2.00 a copy for these statements. This bank is the most frustrating to deal with. If you get an offer for a Merrick Bank Card, there much better options out there. This bank doesn't even try to prevent these charges by asking if this is you. I haven't been in Florida in over 35 years, yet this merchant said I ordered Sports TV there. Fraudulent charges will always occur, however the way the bank responds is what matters and with Merrick Bank, they don't seem to care and are quite happy taking money from fraudulent charges. I am going to be seeking an attorney for this issue.

Was originally very happy to have a Merrick Bank credit card, until I was trying to log into my account to make a payment and was shown my account was restricted and locked. After multiple phone calls and getting transferred to multiple people I discover they need to verify my identity, so I follow the link they give me to verify my ID and I'm given a fax number to fax a copy of my social security card to them. I explained it would take me a little while to do this as I travel for work a lot and I would have to find somewhere to pay to have this done (as nobody uses fax anymore). I was never given any time frame or date to have this completed by. I talked to 3 different people in 3 different departments that day and not a single one told me I had a deadline nor did I get a letter, email, or call regarding this deadline. 10 days pass and I get a letter that they have permanently closed my account.
After calling and speaking with 2 different people I got the same responses from them both: they have closed my account because I didn't submit my social security card in a "reasonable amount of time". They won't reopen the account, they don't know why no one told me the deadline to have this completed, and they don't provide anything in writing to you with this information. As someone who has worked in retail/customer service for 17 years, I find this to be a poor business practice and a definite way to lose customers.

Got an increase after 6 months, hope that continues!!! It would be nice if I didn't have to request a credit line increase. I like to keep my credit utilization number low. Therefore a higher credit limit accomplishes that. Thanks!!

I have had my payment set on auto pay for years. They have randomly started returning my payments after sending a confirmation email of posted payment. They do not notify when the payment is returned. I’m not aware until the next month when I’m charge over double my payment for late fees and other charges. When I reached out to them there was no explanation that they could give. When I asked to speak to the manager, they stated that the manager does not speak to customers! They are TRASH!!

Merrick Bank is an excellent company with excellent customer service. I had questions on how to pay my bill and how to access my account and they were there to help. I love being able to pay my bill online. It is quick and easy. Merrick Bank has many features that are accessible through online services. I would recommend this bank to friends.

I made a payment using a debit card and it did not get recorded and I was charged a $35.00 late fee because of it. I contacted two different employees of your company who were incompetent and RUDE and did not in any way want to help me resolve the problem!

The app is very easy to use. I can see past statements and transactions. Payments process fast and questions are always answered quickly. I love the text that are sent to let me know when my card is used, this allows me to monitor for any fraudulent attempts to use my card.

I am very happy with the service and freedom this card has given me. The payment options are clear and easy... You could offer a little variety on the actual card style... Aside from that all is good and I would recommend this card and your service to others... The app is also easy to use and understand.

Every month I try to make a payment on the phone and the recording won't let me and that's every month I try to pay I have to call in and talk to somebody about that and make my payment. I'm not paying $5 extra for they can get my payment. I'm trying to pay over the phone. It won't let me.

I have always had a great experience. Fast posting of payments and easy use of the app. I also received an increase in my limit without request which came in handy during an unexpected delay in receipt of my normal pay. This made me feel very valued as a client and rewarded for my consistent payments and responsible use of my account.

We are enjoying the cards! The app is coming along and the improvements y'all are making are great! The "pay on time, double your limit" is amazing!!! Thank you for offering folks like us credit in these trying times, with such high inflation! It would be nice to have a little lower interest rates.

The best credit card I've received. They gave me a credit limit increase just as promised. They give me notifications about my payments and the minimum payment isn't expensive at all. I would definitely recommend this card to anybody. I wish there were other credit cards that I received that were just as good. Thank you so much for giving me a chance. This credit card will definitely help with my credit score.

I had never heard of them before but decided to give them a try, have had a very positive experience, they are very user friendly platform, and I have received great service, even though my credit wasn’t great! Highly recommend to anyone who might have good credit, but not great and still has some work to do.

Honest good customer service. Would recommend to friends and family. Get reminded of payment due dates and view what I have spent. Thanks you, thank you, thank you. Thank you. That's it. Hope this isn't a app that is asking for this to get your information. Hope you keep my information to yourself and not share with others. Please do not give out my information.

I had nothing but problems with my secured credit card. I traveled to Canada and my card wouldn’t work - even after I notified Merrick that I was traveling. Then my card got suspended with no notification to me, I was told I could only speak to 1 dept and on Friday they were only available from 0900-1200 (EST). I was in California so I had to set my alarm to wake up early (0600-0900). They told me they were closing my account and couldn’t tell me how I’d get my deposit back. Terrible experience.

I got a card from them last month. I have not even received the bill payment yet. I struggled to access online account. By the time I got access to my account to make a payment they reported the balance to my credit. I like to keep my credit utilization low so I like to pay balances pretty fast. I was shocked they could report a balance before they would bill me. Even today it says my payment is due Sunday. Just paid off the balance and will just keep the card and not use it because you never know they’d report right after the use to drop your credit. Very risky.

I am comfortable with Merrick and mainly satisfied. There was a time when I could count on Merrick's consistency. I choose to utilize Merrick's low and expected minimal payment due each month to help stay budgeted with medical expenses, mostly. During these most recent years coinciding with global economic challenges, that all changed. It's much more difficult to budget my payments and has these past few years and still to this day, Merrick maintains the highest APR of all my cards. I am much more cautious and apprehensive when deciding on whether or not to use Merrick.

I've been a customer for over 5 years and I enjoy using my Visa card through Merrick. Between my Capital One card and Merrick I always use the Merrick card. I typically use the card for gas and groceries. I downloaded the app so it's convenient to review my balance and purchases. I like having a fingerprint login when paying my invoice.

Yes easy to understand and card is easy to use. No problems at stores and on line orders are accepted without any problems. Can read my statements and have full description of my spending. Love this card. I wish they were around ten years ago when I was younger. This would have helped me build my credit up and payments are so reasonable.

It took years of on time payments, but Merrick finally gave me a little more credit. I think they should have been a little more liberal considering that my only missed payment was when I was hospitalized. I still look forward to being a long time customer. If they actually read this review maybe they might treat me a little better.

Merrick Bank gave me a chance when no other bank or credit card company would. They have been most significant in restoring my credit. They monitor my account regularly and increase my limit without my needing to ask. I would recommend Merrick Bank to everyone regardless of your credit history! Say yes to Merrick Bank lol.

Very pleased with my experiences over the years with Merrick. Mostly I communicate and process everything online. Their website is secure and easy to use. I can easily find what I look for. I receive friendly reminders when my account is due. This is very helpful since I am paperless. I get other notifications as well since I have opt in for such.
