Presidents Choice Financial MASTERCARD Consumer Reviews

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.

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?

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 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.

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.

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!

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.

I am still on hold while I type this. Have been on hold for one hour and fifty minutes. It said only ten people ahead of me at the start of the call and yet I am still here. What everyone is saying is accurate. Their fees are really high. I always pay in full but if I miss by even two days it's a massive amount in interest. We even tried auto deposit and they made it difficult to sort. I am basically on hold to cancel the card but cannot even do that! Absolute awful. I have tried to call many times. They need to fire their staff!

I am a loyal PC customer for over ten years, never in arrears rarely ever carried a balance over, have an "excellent" credit score rating. I went to use the card at the superstore for online purchases during the COVID crisis Quarantine and the card was declined without notice. After 2 hours of waiting on hold to talk to a representative(s) the only answer they had for the reason to decline my card was " Due to bank policy we reserve the right to decline your card at any time". This is how President Choice MasterCard treats loyal paying customers during the COVID Crisis; Inhumane!

I was dealing with PC Financial when I had a dispute over a purchase where I did not receive the product I was supposed to get. Not only was customer service awful ( wait times over 2 hours, only to speak with a representative who was unknowledgeable about the process) but the company offered me no help at all. Even when I went to put my card on hold as a precaution, the company said they would, and then when I went to test it, didn't. It may be seen as a cheap option, but when you really need your credit card to do as it is meant to (which is to protect the user), it will fail every time. My first review I've ever written because it was an appealing experience.
