Called capital one on both my breaks, my lunch, an for an hour and a half after work. No one will give me information on why I can't access funds. No one has sent me anything saying anything other then funds have cleared. So if they cleared what is so important that they would not send me a letter or notification of the actual problem and how to solve it. They are holding my money hostage with no info.
