I don't understand why Capital One keeps applying penalties and interest on an account that they charged off over 9 (nine) years ago. Isn't there some type of statue of limitations for consumers and their credit when almost ten years has passed??? Well apparently not for Capital One, because they keep updating this same, old, closed, charged-off account on my report and I need to know how to STOP them...Someone please help me.

Signed, desperate in Texas

I pay my Capital One bill online. I am very good about paying, I don't want to mess up my credit anymore than the economy has already done. I haven't worked in over a year, so regretfully, I have been paying the minimum. I don't enter an amount, I just click on "pay minimum".

Today I got a notice in the mail stating I was a month behind. I knew I wasn't, so I called. I was told 2 months ago I paid $15 when in reality I owed $16. So a $39 fee was assessed. This happened again the next month even though I paid what I was told was the minimum!

I asked how they could charge me for paying what their website said I owed. The man had the nerve to tell me the bills mailed and the internet isn't always accurate. The only way I will get an accurate amount to pay is by called Capital One before I make my payment! How is this legal? Is there is lawsuit out there addressing this issue? I've been charged $78 because they lied to me about what I owed. I asked the man "Are you serious? Can you honestly tell me you can say I owe one amount, when in reality I owe more, and then charge me a fee?" He said "Ma'am, the only way you're going to get an accurate amount of what is owed is by called before paying your bill." If that's the case, we should all bombard Capital One's call center to question what we owe.

I recently took advantage of a 0% balance transfer offer on my Capital One card. My card had no balance on it prior to the transfer, so I thought it would be a good deal. After the transfer, it started accruing interest. I emailed the customer service on their website, and I got a response confirming I have 0% on balance transfers. That didn't answer my question, so I asked again why there is interest accruing when there is 0% interest. I got the exact same response, down to the letter. They didn't even read my email. Then I called them. A guy who spoke poor English did not have the answer. He tried to explain the interest was from past purchases which had long since been paid off. It still made no sense to me, so he tried to transfer me to someone else but in the process, he disconnected me. I emailed them again asking to please explain why my balance transfer is accruing interest. I got no reply for four days. Enraged, I just paid off the balance, and the very next day I got an email back saying there is no balance on my account so they don't know what I'm talking about. It's astonishing to even think about their complete disregard and reckless faulty advertising they provide their customers.

Just bought a Chevy Avalanhe, payment due 30th each month they already calling and today is the 20th

Capitol One calls my cell phone but the call can't be answered becase it can only be rejected, not answered. I called the number in the ID nd tell them that I don't have an account with Capital One, and please remove my number and place my number on the do not call list. They say they will, but the just change the number they are calling from and continue the annoying calls.
