Interest rate hike and false information
I received the notice from Capital One about the interest rate hike. I called the phone number on the notice and was informed that I would have to cancel my account if I did not accept the terms of their ridiculous interest rate increase. I cancelled the account, and was told that I could not use it after May 1st.
I then received a notice 2 weeks later from Captial One saying they were "immediately revoking" my charging privledges because they had learned of my plans to file BANKRUPTCY??!! Are you kidding me? I have no intention of doing that, and my financial situation has NEVER been better. I own a house, I have a job, I am doing quite well actually. I called Capital One to find out exactly where they get off making this sort of stuff up, and was rudely told by someone in India that I had to deal with their "bankrupcty" department. I told him that was the whole point, I don't need to speak with anyone in that department, because I am NOT FILING for that. He HUNG UP ON ME. Nice...
So, if I cancel my account voluntarily, it doesn't look so bad on my credit report. If THEY cancel it with their FALSE accusations and baseless reasons? My credit score goes in the toilet. This is CLEARLY their way of revenge for cancelling my account with them. BEWARE OF CAPITAL ONE

Overcharged
As with many other people (as can be seen on this website and others), I too received a mailing, very generic looking that only through luck I happened to open and read. The mailing is a Notice of Changes in Terms and advises that your interest rate is being changed - in my case from a fixed rate of 12% to a variable rate of 22.9%!!
When I called Capital One, I spoke to a very nice young man by the name of JD who stated he does not know how Capital One chose the accounts to make changes to but that I should not view the change as being penalized!
I thanked JD and then promptly closed my account. Everyone recognizes the economy is hurting but punishing those of us that have maintained a positive payment history for several years is not the way to improve conditions. One would think this company would strive to maintain relations during our economic crunch - especially when there are businesses by the dozen vying for our patronage!
I will no longer give my business voluntarily to Capital One! An increase such as the one they are forcing on their loyal and good customers is not a fair business practice and if ALL customers would respond the same we might be able to force change!

Lack of customer service
My credit card was stolen and Capital One will not give me the requested statements I need for my police report. The police department has requested these statements 3 times, and still nothing. The person who stole my card is getting away with $6000 charged on my account. I am a victim of identity theft and my credit score has tanked. Capital One has by far the worse the customer service.

Overcharged
I just received a notice today that my rates were being raised by 10% on my Capital One credit card. I have been a customer for about 8 years now with no lates or overlimit charges and yet they raise my rate by 10%. When I called and asked for the reason the person continued to give me a read response of due to market conditions... So what your telling me is that others are not paying their bills and since you have been paying yours on time for so long we figured we would let you help pay their bills to!! This is not what they said but in a round about way what she was trying to say. Even after talking to a supervisor I was told to pay off my card and use the opt out and then in about a month to apply for a different card and I could get one of their promotion rates. What kind of BS is that.
Anyways after looking at Capital Ones home page new customers are getting rates as low as 9.99% well over what they are trying to change my rates to. This is ridiculous that they are doing this after receiving $3.55 Billion from the government. I can no longer continue to take the greed of these financial company's. They wonder why they got in this position this is why by purging the loyal paying customers and keeping the toxic ones. I am closing all my accounts with this company and will no longer have part in a company that does not care for itself nor it's customers. Their greed has deepened much like the oil companies hopefully our government will finally take a step back and let them fail to prove a lesson.

Scam
Today I received a notice from Capital One stating that they are raising my APR from 4.40% to 29.4%. I have NEVER been late making a payment, and have always paid MORE than the minimum due when possible. Some way to treat their loyal customers. Why should people that are customers in good standing have to get stuck with a higher APR because Capital One are greedy bastards? And plus the way that its send out, it almost looks like junk mail, and I am sure some people are not reading it and throwing it away. I called to cancel my card after receiving this ridiculous notice and did not speak to one person. All automated. Pretty bad when you gotta make that an option. I will NEVER get another capital one card again. I am done.

Fraud committed by merchant and credit card company
While vacationing in Turkey I bought a carpet from Gordes Carpet. Purchased a cashmere on wool carpet. Used my Capital One charge card to pay for carpet. Carpet was switched in store by merchant and a different carpet was deliberatelly wrapped and given to me to take home. When going thru security in Munich, Germany I realized the carpet was switched because I had to show what was in the package. I notified Captial One on 27 October 2008. Gordes Carpet put thru two charges. I informed Captial One of the switch and the scam and told them not to honor the first nor the second charge. I was told nothing could be done for three more days and to call back. Of course on day three I called and was put on hold several times. I called back two days later and told my complaint would be put thru dlispute resolution. I questioned how they could evern honor the second charge when I was home in the United States when the second charge was put thru? I was told they could do nothing. I would have to take the carpet back. That was impossible and I would not chance sending the carpet thru the mail in case Gordes would lie and say the carpet was not received. During the dispute phase Gordes lied saying I changed my mind, the carpet was wrapped in front of me and that I had the carpet I wanted in the store. I was convinced that Capital One was more concerned for the merchant and didn't care if a scam was being committed. Capital One does not represent their customers. When ever I was able to talk to the dispute department I always spoke to someone from India who I could not understand and they didn't have a clue as to what my complaint was about. One even suggested I fly back to Turkey to return the carpet. Another suggested getting a second opinion for another carpet dealer which I did. The appraisor confirmed this was not a cashmere on wool carpet. It didn't matter Capital One honored the fraud on behalf of Gordes. Never use Capital One, nerver buy anything from Gordes Carpet and run in the opposite direction if a quide called Oz, a representative from Lewis cruise line wants to show you were to buy carpets. You will be cheated!!!

Awful experience
I just received in the mail a notice that Capital One credit card interest rate is being raised to 29.4%, April, 2009. I am never late on my payments. They charge a yearly fee also.. This is criminal that these Banks/Credit Card companies can do this to their good customers after they received Government Bailout Funds from the Taxpayers of America. I am sick of the Corporate Greed in this country and upset that the banks and credit card companies are GETTING AWAY WITH IT!!!

I had paid the amount they have on the bill. then I get a call two days ago. Asking to pay more money $350.00 I told them that I pay what the amount on the bill and they said we know. Buy we are asking all customer yo pay more. then I get a letter in the mail. saying my interst rate will go up 29%.bECAUSE THEY RAISED MY LIMIT AND THEM CHARGE TO TELL ME i WAS OVER MY CREDIT LIMIT.
