On August 6, 2009 I have taken on a 12 month 0% loan from capital one in which cost me $390 in processing fee as was displayed as a financing charge on my first statement after getting the loan. 


The following month I have noticed a $67.01 in financing charge on the second statement which I found strange but did not make so much of it as I was hoping it's a mistake and won't happen again and just didn't have the time to deal with it.  A month later on my third statement of November of 2009 since the 0% loan I again noticed a finance charge of the amount of $133.58. 


After receiving my third statement and finance fee, I have decided to call them to find out why I'm getting these charges as I was hoping it's just a mistake which they would easily be able and adjust.  After explaining my situation to the agent on the phone I have been told by her that Capital One policy is to charge a finance charge on balances with higher APR rate first.  I explained the lady that I pay my full balance every month so there should not be any balance to pay finance charges on except my loan which was anyway at 0%.  Then the lady explained to me that any payments that I am making are paid first to the 0% loan instead of the purchases that I have been making as usual on that card.  I tried to explain to her my point of view that this doesn't make sense because base on this system I'm never going to take advantage of their offer and the only thing I have accomplished is paying them the $390 processing fee as well as start paying them finance charges which I didn't pay before.  I also asked her to send me a copy of me agreeing to this loan type.  She told me she will be sending over my agreement and I will receive it in the mail.


A short time after my phone call with Capital One, I received in the mail a letter stating the following: (a copy of the letter is also attached to this post)

I guess they could not come up with anything on file that I agreed to this type of loan arrangement.


To me this is a definite scam and if anyone is looking for a Class Action lawsuit partner, I'm in.
