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.

This company is overall not bad. However, I have been with them for a good amount of years, five or 6 years. I've never been late on a payment. Never missed a payment, and all that time until a month and a half ago due to health reasons. These guys from first thing in the morning right until bedtime, 7 days a week. 15 calls every single day since then. Why the hell do you have to call that many times to somebody for under $100? That is ridiculous. There is no need to call somebody 15 times from morning tonight 7 days a week for the last month and a half, there is no need for it. Feeling my voicemail up so that if I get any important missed calls from anybody, they can't leave a message because they're all filled with these stupid calls. You guys just need to calm down. I can understand. Call them one or two times a day, not 15 times every day. That's excessive and ridiculous, and that's why I'm giving it a two-star review.

I applied online and got an instant email with congratulations and card will follow in 7–10 days. I continued to get emails to activate for extra savings at gas pumps and shoppers drug Mart. Three weeks later, I called and was on hold for 20 minutes. I was told that the card was canceled due to my credit. The representative said I could reapply in six months . I was pissed as I pay my bills on time. I called them again, next day and was told it was the cancelled due to the process???? I asked for an email explaining what I was told. The gentleman said they don’t do that. He was in the Philippines. I never got one email, phone call explaining this so-called process. What a disservice and fabricated process. Shame on President's Choice!!!

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.
