Providian National Bank ripoff, fraud, idiots, don't know what they're doing, morons Pleasanton California

I used to have a Providian account and everytime I mailed a payment well in advance of my due date, my payments were always posted late. I incurred late fees and over the account balance charges. After calling and writing Providian (certified receipt), the problem was never solved. Providian never responded to my certified letters. I sent my cut up card back to Providian and included a check of what I knew what I owed, not what Providian wanted me to pay them. I did receive a letter that they was closing my account and asked me to return the card. They got the card. Every now and then I would receive a bill asking me to pay some balance I did not owe and then later on I would receive a letter and a statement saying that it was sent in error.

Seven months ago, I received a letter asking me why I have not been using my credit card. DUH!!! I called them and spoke to a foreigner that did not understand one word of English. I asked for a supervisor and he said, no.

I hung up and called back and I got a slightly more intelligent CSR. I explained the situation to them and I still had difficulty explaining to the idiot, that I did not have a card and I hadn't had a card for several yearsand that it was returned. I was asked, why don't you use your card. I said "Idiot, what part of the English language don't you understand?" I told you that I don't have a card and that I returned the card back to you five years ago.

Still couldn't get thru to that moron. I wrote Providian a letter asking them to leave me alone and to hire people who were capable of getting a GED.

Last week, I received a letter from John C. Green, Vice President, telling me that they were closing my account because I have not used my card in seven consecutive months.

DUH! I hae filed a complaint against Providian with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency as they're required by law.

What a bunch of morons.
