Canadian Tire Triangle Mastercard Credit Card Reviews

They block your card and the office is closed at 8 pm. Just bad. If you have a choice, not this horrible card. Use another one. A lot better... Anyway, that’s not the point. Just say no to this lame company credit card.

When I went to pay for groceries today I found out my card was on hold... why? Because I made a payment! The associates on the phone (they don't have a chat function- another reason to avoid this stone-age company) told me that Canadian Tire Bank randomly places holds on accounts as a security feature. I am not sure how this gives better security, especially when the hold was placed after making a $900 payment. They told me the hold will last 10-14 business days, and they will not remove the hold. I asked how this was communicated to me (email, notification, the legal paperwork) and they said that this information is not communicated to customers, this is just their practice. Please understand that I am the type of customer who always pays her full balance each month- so perhaps I am being punished because they are not getting a bunch of interest payments from me. Please avoid this shady company unless you enjoy having random holds placed on your account every 6-8 weeks.
