These folks have been a nightmare to deal with ever since I applied for the card. Wait time for receipt of a card was inordinate with no practical way to even determine if the card was in process or the application was still pending. Called a few months back to advise - I was leaving the country and would be using the card overseas. The operator had no idea what to do or why I would even call to tell them this. Yesterday my card was blocked due to a suspicion of fraud concerning 5 charges in total. Only one of which was for the amount incurred. Called the "customer service" fraud people and was told the only charge they were actually interested in was for the correct charge. After I told them this charge was valid, I was told the block on my account had been removed. I asked why they sent other charges with a specific request that I approve them all. The response was that this was Home Trust practice. Then later told they were actually interested in all the charges by a supervisor and advised to contact Home Trust customer service directly to address them. When asked why I needed to when the card was now unblocked. The supervisor reverted to the standard practice mantra and them only being interested in one charge. The supervisor also told me all charges I was sent were dominated in US currency. When I told her this was strange given I was using a Canadian credit card, she claimed she was unaware of this. Really?
