Presidents Choice Financial MASTERCARD Consumer Reviews

The most frustrating customer service I have ever had to deal with. I have probably spent 8 hours in total trying to get a hold of somebody, and a majority of the time I'm just hung up on while being transferred. I've been told on numerous occasions that I would receive a call within 24 to 48 hours from my supervisor, and 5 days later I got a call that I happen to miss. So I called back in minutes after and said "I just missed a call from management, can you please transfer me"? I was told I would get a call back within three to five business days.
On top of this I have provided two different instances of fraud on my card, they have decided to ignore it because I had given the merchant my credit card number for a transaction previously.
I would advise anyone else who is thinking of getting a PC Financial Mastercard to go with somebody else, this is by far the most frustrating credit card interaction I've ever had.
I am cancelling my card as soon as I use my PC grocery points.
The representative was not helpful at all. I asked him to explain what he just read off the paper because it was unclear what he was referring to and he just re-read the same line numerous times as pretty rude about it. It seemed as if he was only able to read a script. While I tried to explain a few things going on with the case he kept interrupting me, and I don't mean once or twice, the majority of the conversation was him trying to talk over me.
Hopefully, they recorded the call for "quality assurance"

Pull out your PC account!!! Not worth It!
PC Financial has the worst customer service! Promising clients and keeping them hanging for almost a month. Always telling someone will call back and up to now no one calls!
Non-sense supervisor in online or phone calls. I do suggest getting rid of your supervisor if they can't even help clients!

Trying to speak to someone to contest a charge on my card: I called 3 times, got hung up 2 times, I spent well over 3 hours waiting and still no results.
Their online form to make a complaint is not working either, it's ridiculous.
DO NOT SIGN UP WITH THIS COMPANY!!!

I have now called 7 times over a 10 day period and have not yet been able to reach a customer service supervisor or have one call me back. PC MC sent a letter that reduced my credit limit with no explanation and no evident recourse. I use the credit card extensively every month and pay it off each month. I called to get an explanation and increase or return the credit limit to the previous level. Every time I call I am advised that I must speak to a supervisor but none is ever available and no one has ever called me back and more than a week has passed. Really poor customer service.

Worst card ever for everything! I have good credit and I had the card for 6 years with not a single missed or late payment, and I couldn’t get a limit increase from my $500 starting limit.
Customer service is awful too.

Although this company has an agreement with Shoppers Drug Mart and people are generally happy since they are getting points, any time there is a fraudelence in your account, the support is bare minimum.
I had a fraudulent charge on my account from a photo shop in NY where I haven't been since more than 15 years. When I complained to PC, they first refunded that amount, but then called me back when I was away for 3 weeks on vacation and then added that amount. Since then, this issue was not resolved. If I had these issues with another credit card company, like major banks, they would have been resolved long time ago. Finally, I took my complaint to the Ombudsman and waiting to hear a favorable solution.
I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS CREDIT CARD TO ANYONE. ALL OTHER VISA CARDS OFFER POINTS OR REBATES. DON'T LEARN THE HARD WAY LIKE I DID!

They lowered my credit limit twice in the last 3 months yet I never missed a payment.
Their customer service is disgusting.
Do not bother with this card or any PC products for that matter.

I’ve had the most horrendous experience with PC financial credit cards. I’ve had the card for a few years and only wanted it for the points. The credit card gets you nowhere further with points although they promise the world.

Terrible experience #1:
Auto-payments from my primary account (different financial institution) had expired without me realizing it which meant I had missed 2 payments with my PC cc. Not one phone call, email, notification from PC Financial. I had randomly logged into credit karma and found out that I had missed the payments. That day, I had got a call from a third party to say that my account was going to collections. Not from PC financial. With no communication, they sent my account to collections. I have never missed a payment once prior to this.

Terrible Experience #2:

Once again, I signed into credit karma to see that my PC CC was under closed accounts. Upon spending 30 minutes waiting to speak with someone, apparently there was a request to close my account through a request to speak to a representative online. Never got a call. Never got a confirmation that my account had apparently been closed. Nothing. As I write this, I’m trying to put an offer in on a house and find out a huge amount of my credit amount had randomly been cancelled which can seriously mess with my pre-approval.

Just avoid this financial agency at all costs. It’s a true customer service nightmare.

More a headache the longer I have it. Every time I get an non native English speaker they tell me the charge is not fraudulent and send me to the dispute department. I did NOT make the charge! That is Fraud. After 8 phones calls I finally got an native English speaker in Disputes who fixed my problem, re issued me a new card and sent it back to fraud all done for them! and I got my $$ refunded

I have a dispute issue and same thing with non native speakers, they can NOT communicate, do not listen to what you say and do not do what they say. They claim my dispute is being cancelled due to inability to contact the seller, which is my problem. And told me they cant help me, do it yourself. Its obviously some kind of scam, as the minute I applied for a refund the agent when awol as well as my Credit Card company, whom is supposed to help me!

Terrible service!

I have a PC financial Mastercard which I hardly use to make a purchase. I used it once at Costco due to no other options and forgot to pay. PC customer service never sent a reminder via emails or phone calls that your payment is due and sent directly to collections. I have been using other credit cards and never experienced such bad services. I am done and cancelling master card.
