BMO World Elite MasterCard Consumer Reviews

Wait times to speak to a customer service representative were always 4+ hours. Had to go into a branch to cancel the card - impossible to contact BMO by phone. The card couldn't be linked to any online account or restaurant - customer service was unwilling or unable to fix this. The annual fee is not worth it.

I am currently on hold for BMO world elite Mastercard customer service. OVER 3 HOURS now and still on hold and the message continually says "Thank you for your patience we will answer your call shortly"... Do I need to say anything more about their "service"?

Every time you need to call them it can take between 45 mins, to 3 hours to get to a human on the phone... It's a disgrace to humanity.

If you need to speak to a person (which you do for a lot of the things like password reset etc...) the wait times listed are never less than 1-2 hours. Usually, the automated voice says a 3-4 hours wait time. How is this acceptable? And who has the time and patience to do that? For the number of fees paid this should be 15-20 mins MAX.

BMO do better!

I've had them block my card twice now to ask about a transaction and each time took over 3 hours to get a hold of someone to confirm it and unblock my card. Not acceptable. I'm now in the process of trying to cancel because of it, and it will take another 3 hours to get through. Huge waste of time.

Customer service is Zero waiting for hours no one answers. We have made a transaction by mistake and we want to cancel it, so we talk to the regular line no one answers for 1 hour, then we talked to the emergency, and the same thing happened.

This is not acceptable. I have been on for over an hour. I pay a big premium to use this card. They have not honoured the terms of the agreement and the incentives have not been granted (lounge passes). This is a terrible company that has no regard for its customers. I am done...

Wait times for telephone banking is 1 hour to 1.5 hours. THIS IS ABHORRENT!!! This is a CONSISTENT problem with BMO Credit Card. Using COVID as an EXCUSE for ABHORRENT customer service is INEXCUSABLE!!! COVID has been going on for 2+ YEARS!!! If BMO has not figured out a solution to exorbitant wait times, I do not think I can trust BMO with my banking. This is sheer INCOMPETENCE!!!

I used to love this card for its benefits and customer service.

I have no idea what changed in the past 5 months but I've since canceled my card. No one speaks clear English - took over five minutes to spell out my name - two times, two different representatives kept putting "g" instead of "J" - the wait times are long, took 15 minutes to give my address where my card never came up.

After 8 years of being with BMO World Elite and a similar card for the business platinum level, I canceled both and went to another bank.

When you travel or do some type of charge online they block your card making you call and wait hours online to have the card unblocked. Completely done with BMO and this card.
