Capital One Credit Card Complaint

Credit card protection / Debt protection Illinois

I remodeled my house ; purchased most of the materials from - using their " 6 month same-as-cash '' offers. I had numerous balances on these " 6 month @ 0 % '' offers that expired in different months ( or incur deferred interest ). I was paying close attention to my offers and paying off those balances when they expired, and asking for anything over the minimum payment to be applied to my " regular purchase balance '' which is charged 25.24 %! Capital One has a disclaimer to get around applying anything above your minimum payment to the next highest interest rate balance - they apply anything over your minimum payment to the currently expiring balance and then to the NE-T expiring promotional balance instead of applying it the next highest balance ; the " regular purchase balance '' earning 25.24 %!


on the phone for HOURS - as they try to confuse me, then eventually offer to wipe the interest fees. They never do correct the balances on the various promotional offers, so the issue never does get fixed. I have to call them back every month and go through the whole thing again. I 've spent HOURS on the phone EVERY MONTH with a different supervisor applying my payments manually. Then they still do n't apply it correctly - the balances are all wrong, when I try to get it straight, they just talk about all the difference balances, tell me the same thing in a different way, attempt to confuse me, etc. They refuse to apply my payment how I ask them to AND how it is required to be applied according to CARD Act of 2009 ; which is minimum pmt, payoff promo balance expiring that month, then apply anything over that amount to the " regular purchase balance '' - the balance with the highest rate. It 's a struggle every month to request that my payment over-and-above the minimum payment be applied to the balance with the highest interest rate. This clause " If you have Same As Cash Credit Plans, we will automatically apply payments received during the final TWO billing cycles and up to the date of expiration first the required minimum pmt due and next to the plan ( s ) that is expiring, in order of expiration ; at other times, we will treat your Same As Cash Credit Plan as having a 0 % APR for purposes of determining payment application. '' This allows them to pay off a balance that is sitting at 0 % for another month instead of paying off the balance sitting there at 24.25 %.
