Corporate Advocacy Program™
This company in the absolute worse in have ever dealt with, and I think everyone should be aware.
I sent in a 500.00 deposit as requested by the company.
And canceled my credit card within 2 days after finding out the amount of interest they were charging.
I have made more than 30 phone calls concerning my money to be refunded to me.People are very very rude and no one ever knows what is happening.Needless to say I am still waiting for my money to be refunded.It has been over 3 months.Agreed I had to wait the 2 billing cycles as they mentioned, but I am still waiting.And another thing is they will not pay any interest on the money they are holding of mine.
I think I will retain an attorney, to see if I can get any interest IF and WHEN they decide to send me my deposit.
NOT REAL HAPPY,
Mark

Search Tips#1 UPDATE Employee
Don't trust Capitalone
AUTHOR: Caleb Brocious - (United States of America)
SUBMITTED: Wednesday, August 03, 2011
I am a contractor for capitalone and it take's nothing to get a job that will give you all the administrative access to accounts of anyone with capitalone. I was contacted by multiple recruiters and given a test that apparently anyone could pass because their are some shady people that while they may be nice people are dumber than rocks. I also found out they are so understaffed that they will basically hire anyone and even have people who do other jobs sign an onboarding form to make it seem like there are more people working for capitalone than there really are. Even if I could help someone with their problem I have a time limit of 10 minutes and would have to escalate the call to another resolver group that would get back to the customer supposedly within 48 hours but have seen it where people have not been taken care of in 2 weeks and even then they were not really taken care of. I was given admin access to programs and passwords for banking programs and with some of the people i work with I wouldn't even want them to know where I live. People have Cell phones hooked up to their pc's where they can download any kind of account info they want. There are a few things that go on that I cannot mention for legal reasons and I doubt capitalone even knows about. I would not trust my money with a company who has no idea of whats going on in the servicedesk center that has complete control of everything. It's scary how vulnerable you're money is and how they don't care about helping a customer they care about getting the person off the phone in 10 minutes or less.

What's this? #2 Consumer Suggestion
I understand and have a suggestion
AUTHOR: Dee In Toronto - (Canada)
SUBMITTED: Sunday, June 07, 2009
Hello Mount Carmel...
I went to the chat site and as you will see below I tried to get the info that you were trying to get regarding a refund of your deposit. I changed the name of the rep I spoke with online to just say rep for privacy purposes...
What I would suggest you do is contact the Ombudsman in writing demanding a refund and send it either certified mail or some type of mail service where you can track it (Xpresspost, priority courier, etc). That way you have a date indicating that it was sent and received. Now I am assuming that this was for a guaranteed card (which by the way you should never try to get. It is one of the worst credit cards to have. The interest rates on them are always high and they are set up in such a way to basically get as much money from you as possible, even more than regular credit cards...get a prepaid credit card instead it is much easier to control. BMO and Royal Bank have them for a low fee and they have the same rights and privileges as a regular credit card).
Hope this helps!

What's this?
Lets see...
500$ at an average savings interest of 2% annually, compounded quarterly comes out to....
$2.45 Man that is a lot of interest to sue over.
If you are just now in the third billing cycle I would look for it soon. If you start pushing 4-5 months then I would start looking to file a small claims court case against the company.
Its not worth it to hire a lawyer over 500$, you will eat up all your money in legal fees.
