Credit rating over $1

by HBC sucks on Feb 27, 2020
1 out of 5 stars

I left a small balance of $1 and change for a couple of months and when I paid it off I found they had closed the account and this had a huge effect on my credit rating. I can't believe they screwed me so bad over a dollar which I paid off even though the account was closed

Failed customer service

by eddiereview on Dec 29, 2019
1 out of 5 stars

One word: WORST! First I normally don't go online to write these kinds of reviews but in this case, I feel obligated to do so because they have been so bad in terms of resolving issues and customer service. They double charged me on my credit card. They dare to deny it. After 10 customer service calls. Being passed around left and right, still did not fix the issues, most horrific experience ever. Their customer service is clearly outsourced so they had massive problems comprehending my question (super frustrating) I'm a very patient person. My statement is in black and white and I don't see it's possible for them to even deny? I have never ever experienced this from any retailer/credit card company. Boggles my mind still. Don't sign up, most horrible customer service experience ever and they don't seem to own up to their faults.

Worst service ever!

by cborg on Dec 3, 2019

Similar to another recent review, i asked for increase from $1k to $3k and was declined. I have absolutely PERFECT credit, and a very high limit on my daily use elite mastercard. I asked why I was declined and the robot couldn't tell me. When I asked to speak to a manager for clarification, they put me on hold for 15+min then disconnected, so I had to call back and then was told after 20+ min that they are busy and a manager can call me back in 2-3 days. What kind of customer service is that? I rarely use this card and will not be using again in the future. Ridiculous. I also noticed my credit limit was $10K a few years back and suddenly dropped to $1k? The Bay, whats going on?

Bay Master Card is HELL

by shocked customer on Nov 25, 2019
1 out of 5 stars

As is their online ordering that did not go through after hours of trying - telling me my card was NOT VALID when it was valid - then the items arrived defective and or damaged - then I was diverted to the Philippines every time I called to resolve the problem where the customer agents did not follow through on their promises - promise #1: to credit me for the damaged items 15% so, I would not return the whole lot. The adjustment was not credited to my master card. Promise #2: the 2 items I did return were credit at a lower price than the amount of refund I was emailed. Again every time I called I was diverted to the Philippines - and bounced between customer service and back to master card department - one saying the problem was with the other and so on onto Infinitum. I have never encountered the worst service and have never had the worst experience.

Based out of the Philippines

by Hazel on Nov 9, 2019
1 out of 5 stars

This card has the MOST frustrating customer service. They have no online communication. You have to call a toll-free number that is based in the Philippines. The employees use fake English names so none of them have last names - they tell you it is for security reasons (not sure what this means as the only reason I take down a name is to document who is accessing my personal information). They do not understand English and they read from a script. So if you ask a question outside of the script, they just keep repeating the same sentence over and over again. SO frustrating. I cancelled my card because of the horrible customer service from this card. You will sit on hold for 30 minutes and then have to talk to a human who basically sounds and acts like a computer. Get a different credit card.

Total crap

by Paul on Oct 17, 2019
1 out of 5 stars

I've been using this card for many years, without any problem. It's just recently they just stopped my card for no reason. The people from the customer service department are pretty rude. Every time I contact them, they spent more than 30 minutes asking tons of verification questions and privacy questions, most of which are totally non-relevant to this card. Never want to waste another minute with them!

Replacement Card delays

by jay on Sep 23, 2019
1 out of 5 stars

My Card expired in July, waited one month to receive the new card but didn't receive Called CSR they said the new card is already issued & sent & they suggested to request a new one as reported lost....Now after 20 calendar days still I didn't get the replacement card....Called CSR they again suggested to report as lost and request new one...One time the CSR told me the address is wrong. I was surprised to hear while I already received activation letter in mail on the correct address... Because the card is issued by Capital one they don't have any control of whether the card is sent or not....Surprising !!

Inappropriate Card Block

by Anita on Jun 5, 2019
1 out of 5 stars

I use the HBC Capital One MasterCard weekly to buy groceries at one of 3 stores in my community. Today, my card was declined so I had to use another. Fearing it had been compromised, I immediately called Capital One and was told the block was automatic and based on unusual activity or amount. I explained I was using it at the same store I shop at every week, their history going back for years would bear that out, the amount was less than $85, and my account is in good standing. Security repeated that it was automatic based on unusual activity or amount, but could not clarify beyond that statement. The representative said she would unblock my card, and I told her that based on this I’m not sure I really want to use this card anymore; I have no confidence in their process. She had no response for me. HBC MasterCard was wonderful until it was taken over by Capital One. What a pity as I will miss getting the HBC Rewards.

Unreasonable service

by Mike on Feb 4, 2019
1.5 out of 5 stars

So there was a Canada wide postal strike for 2 months and my balance of $63 was not paid on time. HBC Mastercard decided that my interest rate should go up to 29.90 % from 19%. The balance was paid in full the day the account statement was received and I placed a call explaining what happened. After 2 weeks I am being told that the interest rate cannot be brought back to the original. No reason as to why it could not be done. Apparently, customer loyalty means nothing to these people. I will be cancelling my card.
