Incompetent customer service

by Fed up...!!! on Jan 22, 2022
2 out of 5 stars

Recently I received a credit to my PC MasterCard from an airline company.
The corresponding credit card had been compromised so another had been issued in July 2021.
The credit balance is NOT automatically transferred to the new card & I had to phone repeatedly to request the credit of over $1500.00 to be credited to my account.
After 7 phone calls & 7 weeks of speaking with multiple people this issue was finally resolved just yesterday Jan 21/22 ( they could all see the credit was there from Dec. 12/21
This customer service is absolutely horrible. The wait times on hold are terrible. At least 1 hour or more every time you try to get through.
As soon as my credit is used up... This card will only be used for grocery items that need not be returned.
This is the 3rd time my card has been compromised & I am extremely careful with it. I expect the high credit limit has something to do with it as my wife's card has never had a problem.
Also, my card is expiring & they told me my new card was mailed out over a month ago but I have yet to receive it. When I mention this ... they don't care! Just wait!

Do NOT use their M/C

by Donna on Jan 21, 2022

I had nothing owing and an excellent credit score and they cancelled my card and didn't tell me or warn me they were going to. It was embarrassing when I got my transaction declined. I waited over an hour on hold to find out why. The reason I hadn't used it in a year. Ah HELLO we're in a Pandemic where people don't really shop that much for a few reasons. If I want their card I have to apply again. NO THANKS!!!! They don't deserve my business.

PC Financial Mastercard does never answer the phone for hours

by Silvia on Jan 20, 2022
1.5 out of 5 stars

Nobody is working in answering the phone lately, they don't hire workers. It is a horrible wait time for hours and hours. I am an old lady who does not know about computers. My card was stolen, so I lost many stressful hours trying to communicate with a person. Neither the have a person to answer the comments in the virtual assistance. What a lye the "new face of the pandemic" what about saving money in HIRING PEOPLE?

Waiting time

by Peter on Jan 19, 2022
1 out of 5 stars

Poor customer service. Your wait time for a customer service representative will be 3 about hours. And you have to call again if the line reset your call, so you have to listen to their stupid music for another 2-3 hours…. And no answer!!!!

No one ever answers the phone and online can’t even get in

by Molly on Jan 18, 2022

No one answered the phone for over 2 hours?
Even an online account doesn’t allow me to enter. Every time states wrong information or - an account not found.

Customer service is worst than anyone on this planet. Call waiting time about 2-3 hours. Other banks' wait time is only a couple of minutes...

Very long phone wait times for customer service

by Sarah on Jan 16, 2022
2 out of 5 stars

I spent over an hour on hold yesterday and an hour and a half again today with customer service for a blocked transaction and restricted access to my account online. Customer service is pleasant and helpful once you manage to speak with someone, but you are then transferred to security for another long hold time.

The worst experience ever

by FH on Jan 15, 2022
1 out of 5 stars

This is one of the worst experiences I got, That is why I want to share it, so people can be careful with their choices.
I noticed some unauthorized transaction on my account so I decided to contact the customer service, to find the solution for that, and after a long waiting time with the annoying music, someone answered my call and I explained everything to him and they tried to transfer me to another department but unfortunately lost the line, and I noticed that I have to call again and go through the same process, anyway I did that and the story repeats itself three times every time they transfer me a loser line and do another call and that story went for more than 4 hours.
Finally, someone transferred me and I spoke to another person which was the rudest person ever I've ever dealt with and they told me that this is not a fraud and they can do nothing about it and when I decided to speak to the supervisor after a long waiting of time they got back to me and they said he's busy and he will call you back.
A week later pass and no one contacts me... No email, no phone call, and nothing, so I decided to call to cancel every service I have with Presidents Choice Financial MASTERCARD, and I don't recommend that company to anyone.

Long wait times!

by SouthernAction on Jan 15, 2022
1 out of 5 stars

I've attempted to call PC Financial customer service at least 7 times and I've only been able to speak to a representative once for a short 3 minutes only to be told I need to be transferred to another representative to help me with a block. Each wait time was between 1hour - 3hours. Awful customer service. Avoid at all costs!

Customer service is poor

by Anita Jin on Jan 13, 2022
1 out of 5 stars

The customer service is poor, has to wait more than 1 hour to get an answer, the web site did not update the statement on time, as a result, have to pay interest which should avoid.
