I had 4 charges of frauds FROM AIRBNB on August 18, 2023:
I phoned PC Financial at and spoke to a lady to report these frauds
and I got the corrections (refunds) of 3 frauds next day but then PC Financial put these 4 charges of frauds back to my account again. I tried to contact PC Financial again to find out the problem but failed to contact them, I were put on hold for 45 minutes and then the connection dropped. I phoned again and got the same respond (holding for 40 minutes and the connection dropped). I will try again to dispute these frauds from AIRBNB and then I will cancel my PC credit card after 25 years using it for its grocery points.
I was charged $1400 on PC Mastercard for a service I never used. I disputed the transaction, PC said they would get back to me within 5 business days. I didn't hear anything until I called them a month later and they said no one had looked at the file, but that they would push the matter and someone would get back within 2 business days. I didn't hear back until I called another month later. They said, someone left us a voicemail on a friday afternoon and that we were instructed we had 2 days (over the weekend, while we were off the grid) to respond or the matter would be closed. We found a voicemail that was completely inaudible, which I assume is PC. We were told that they can't reopen to dispute and that the matter is closed. We made a formal complaint and again, we were told someone would get back within 2 days. It's been a month and I haven't heard a peep. After 15 years, we moved on to another provider, as we DO NOT TRUST PC WITH OUR MONEY!

No definitive answers when asking questions, getting shuffled around on hold repeatedly.
Not to mention they were rude when I tried telling them how frustrated I was.
I have had a PC Mastercard for 15+ years. When it works, it's great. If anything goes wrong, getting any kind of support from PC Financial will be a nightmare.
A while back, the tap feature on my card stopped working. I ordered a new one. I tried to activate it on the website, but the system wouldn't let me enter the activation code. I called the helpline, which put me on hold and scolded me repeatedly for not solving the problem using their useless website. I waited for maybe an hour and a half.
During this time, I actually walked to a store location and visited the PC Financial kiosk. The guy there told me that PC Financial deliberately made people wait for hours for telephone support, and would not help me anyway.
I hung up and called the next day, and after another hour and a half on hold, I finally reached someone. She told me that she would not do anything to help me, and in a rude and disapproving tone, told me to do it on the website. I told her that the online activation wasn't working. So she told me to call a different telephone support line. I called that one, which sent me into a series of useless online menus, but wouldn't put me through to anybody.
The card is basically useless. Restricts many online purchases. Treats the customer like they are doing you a favor. Customer service is garbage, and wait times are ridiculous.
DO NOT RECOMMEND!

Applied for a credit card and was refused, with no reason given for refusal other than a list of generic and non-specific factors. Not very professional but I can accept that. The tone of the letter was what troubled me: it was needlessly dismissive and disrespectful. I got the feeling they were perturbed by having to deal with an applicant - so I won't be bothering them again on that account.
I waited for 11/2 hours for customer service and this lady having bad behaviour or say unacceptable way of talking telling me she knows everything because she said she's been working there a long time!!!! And in the end, hang up on me!!!! Just clarifying my bill's statements, how come they hire people like her.
I will cancel my card because it's frustrating dealing with this kind of service, not in my life again to get PC financial card and letting to know my friends and relatives how bad their service...
The customer services is bad and they make it hard to dispute a transaction. My calls to customer services often got disconnected and I would have to call back again to wait in line again.

Putting high-interest rates aside (holy moly their interest rates need to chill). I just called customer support because I have noticed that $600 has left my account with no transactions or pending transactions. I simply asked (4 times) if there was maybe something they saw on their end that I didn't see because it just didn't make sense. The woman talked in circles for about 20 mins only to get frustrated with me asking the same question that wasn't being answered by saying "it is probably the hefty $500 bill you have". I always keep my cool with customer support because I've been in their shoes but to disregard my concerns and then address my problem (finally) with such an attitude really pissed me off. Don't get a card with them, this is not my first issue and it will not be my last.

I was offered a vacation package that I saw in Mexico. I was stupid to believe all their lies. I realize this people are not honest, right away I call presidents choise to diapute the transaction. They told me because it was pending they cannot dispute it. So I waited. It was February when I signed a dispute form. But it seems like they are not doing any inventigation. I called many times and waitied for long call wait time. They said it takes 90 days to close this dispute. But it took till October. It took them 9 months and just to tell me I lost my dispute at the end. I will close all my accounts with this company. Their customer service is worst. They dont care about you, they didnt support my dispute even if I dont use any service of the merchant! And it took 9 long months for them to decide! Worst experience with this company. I will not deal with this people again!
