Unethical Credit Card Practice
I had a credit line of $1200. Without prior notification, my account was reducted to $950. The money i owe on my account is $885. NOw my account is to it's limit. Their excuse was: we reviewed your account and decided that you didn't need the entire credit line of $1200. EXCUSE ME!! I called today, 12/20/08 and they said they were in the process of sending letters to their customers to explain this.
I used the card, paid on time and most often ahead of time, and this is what i get????
I could have made one purchase and would have been over my limit. I asked what can be done, they told me nothing. I complained that this is unfair and told them i am taking my business elsewhere. The representative offered to give me the payoff balance in effort to be sly.
I have been with this company for years, and for them to do this without notice is totally ridiculous. I have complained to the company and to every complaint site possible. I transferred my balance to another company. They will not get one more penny from me. (that is, if they don't find a way to get more money from me)

Fraud and scam
When the bank solicited me, they indicated it was a 'special deal' for Travel Agents like myself involving specialized points for travel and an opportunity to earn larger commissions from their travel partners. Fraudulent Representation.
As with so many others writing a complaint here, I too fell victim of them illegally withholding funds that cleared the bank. That's when I canceled the card. After the account closed, my insurance carrier inadvertently charged something in error on the closed account. I filed a dispute with both Juniper and the insurance carrier. It took 30 days for the insurance carrier to process the credit.
Juniper added a $39 overlimit fee, a $29 late fee as well as increasing interest on the incorrect billing. Although Juniper processed the credit for the initial disputed charge, they are ILLEGALLY charging the $39 over limit and $29 late fee in addition to 31% interest on all the the incorrect billing.
Now, the kicker is, Juniper refused a physical address to Fed Ex documentation to remedy the matter. I contacted the Department of Banking and Insurance receiving a physical address as well as the president of the Credit Division, Richard Vauge. A package was sent containing documentation and a formal letter of dispute FED EX. Juniper refused to accept the package and sent it back. They continually refuse to accept any registered documentation that would 'hold up' in court and disregard all inquiries sent to the PO Box on the statements.
Oh, and the FTC sent their same usual response - a pamphlet outlining my rights and an apology that all they can do is monitor the actives, but not ENFORCE any existing consumer protection laws.
What do we have to do to give the Dept of Banking and Insurance TEETH to SHUT disreputable businesses down.

Rip off
I cannot believe the conversation I just had with Gary, one of the so called relationship managers with Juniper Bank. Guess what? THIS RELATIONSHIP IS OVER! Because I mistakenly sent them my September payment, on time by the way, in an amount that was $5 (that's five dollars) less than the correct amount, this company not only charged me a $39 late payment fee, they also raised my already obscene interest rate to an even higher obscene rate! 26.99% APR. Now here's the best part... are you ready... for October I sent them a $5000 payment, on record before I spoke with Gary, think that had any bearing? NO WAY! They still raised my APR. I've never been late, always paid the minimum, often paid more. Obviously Barclays is not interested in a happy and satisfied customer, angry and upset is OK as long as they pay. Well, not this customer. I have cut up my card, and will be sending the pieces to their executive management, and paying off the remaining balance of my account.

Crooked Bank
WARNING>>>WARNING>>>WARNING
Horrific Juniper Bank. Tried to use Juniper's online system to pay credit card monthly payment (very first month). Their system did not credit my payment through...after I had followed all of its miserable instructions. What a creative money sieve. Reading all these other complaints...This is a truly cheat bank system...Barclays, Delaware, Joe Biden connections, whatever it is.
Customer service..."Customer Service"...has the easy out and non assistance (trained) individuals to easily dismiss your claim and move on with their day with no way to help you. Sorry sir, your rate is now such and such, and you are delinquent. That will be $39 additional for your problem, and a new higher rate. Sorry.
Luckily I can still get the hell away from this bank, but some poor schnookered people won't be able to get away from them and it's another example of the implosion from within that is hidden from sight...and we all suffer. Fat cats laughing all the way to the bank...and these poor bank customer service reps...so laughable what they are stuck to do.
Stay away from Juniper and watch out for them all.

Awful service
Juniper Credit Card company has horrible customer service and terrible company practices. They are only concerned with charging late fees and over the limit fees. I missed my payment by four days while I was traveling so I called the customer service line to let them know I would be making a payment. I was charged a $39 late fee, which I paid along with my minimum payment and I let the customer service person know that. I asked to have the late fee waived and they said no they couldn't do that. I told them the payment I was going to make and they said that would put my account in good standing. The very next day I was charged a $39 over the limit fee. When I called customer service back to ask why the previous agent had not told me I was going to be assessed another fee or that I needed to pay more when I made my payment, they told me it was company policy that the fees are charged and it could not be reversed. I even escalated it to a supervisor and they were even more rude than the customer service rep. I will never use the credit card again (I cut it up) and I will tell all of my friends how horrible their service is.

Overcharged
I paid my charge card in full. I called to see if the checks posted to my account. They did it said I had a zero balance. I got a bill in the mail on 10/1 stating that I owed them 1.23 dollars for a finance charge. I called them up and they said it is their policy to charge interest on cash advance on a daily basis. If that is the case then no one would be able to pay off their balances in full.
I told them my balance is zero. Zero times any interest rate is still zero. The second lady agreed with that statement, but they said it was the interest rate that caused the finance charge to occur. They don't understand when a bill is fully paid off you can not legally charge a person anymore money on that same bill. I did report them the the BBB.
I am mad about being overcharge. They did say that they will adjust my account. They already did and I did not like it.

Awful bank
Thanks Juniper. 1st you stated you could transfer a high interest card to juniper's high interest and finally you only transfered a third of it. I was late on a payment cause I thought it was a late bill done before the transfer. One straight I paid off your card. The day after you got the payment in full... a maintenance bill went out for 25 dollars... well 6 months latter and no additional bills sent... I found out through applying for a loan you were reporting me as being behind 6 months. After 4 months it is still on my credit report and you company sends me nasty letters saying I owe money and better pay. Well... everytime I call it says I OWE ZERO DON"T READ YOUR OWN RECORDS THREE PHONE CALLS AN HOUR EACH AND YOUR STILL F*&(&^*%* UP. I work hard for my money and making a future for my family. I bet if I took a bullet in Iraq you would still send bills to my wife..***... nothing but

Fraudulent activity
I got an "introductory" card offer in the mail which stated that they could transfer balances from my high interest accounts onto their card, so I submitted the info to the company. I received the card with a $500.00 limit to it. I NEVER used the card until one day when I was needing to purchase an item I checked my balance (which should have been right around the limit) and found out that I had a balance of $400.00 on this card that I never used. Prior to this I received a letter in the mail from this company which stated that they were NOT able to process my request for balance transfers. Well I called the company right away and they, of course apologized and said that I needed to call another winner Car Care One (GE online services.com) to request the cash back. Well they weren't going to send anything back to the CC company. I called the credit company today and apparently there is some "fine print" that states that if the request for balance transfers was not approved, they would do a partial balance transfer. The limit on the card was set at $500.00, and they put the "partial balance transfer" on it of $400.00, which was not authorized from me, which leaves me with a card that I can use only $60.00 and change on and have to pay this $400.00 off. I am seeking higher authority guidance at this time.

Rip off
Juniper is the credit card for Frontier Airlines frequent flier. I have made many complaints to Frontier and Juniper to no avail about how bad the bank, credit card, and treatment is from Juniper or Barclays as they are now. Customer service is rude as are the supervisors which for sure reflects upper management. Some of their tricks are to label a payment "nonconforming" so that it is handled longer and therefore generates late fees and interest; transfer you to their headquarters customer service which is no better than regular customer service; mail statements first class that take 10 days to reach someone and then any reverse USPS mailing also first class takes another 10 days on a 21 day grace period---guess what happens every time--late fees and interest. When you pay on transactions without "their" envelope it's a non-conforming payment. When you pay without an official printed statement returned to them, it's a non-conforming payment. I finally canceled my card and my peace of mind has tripled. I will never ever work with Barclays or Juniper.
