Capital One Is The Most Complained-About Credit Card Company XXXX XXXX XXXX EDT By XXXX XXXX @ XXXX what's in your wallet capital one cfpb credit cards XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ) Since the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau opened its credit card complaint portal in XXXX XXXX, more than XXXX complaints have been filed with the CFPB. And while the 10 largest credit card issuers account for 93 % of all those complaints, one company is responsible for more than 1-in-5 of  all complaints filed with the Bureau : Capital One. 

Thats according to the XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX new report [ PDF ] that analyzes some of the available data about the CFPB complaint portal. 
With XXXX complaints filed between XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX, Capital One cards accounted for 21 % of all consumer gripes. Citibanks credit cards were the second most complained-about ( 4,514 complaints, 18 % of the total ), followed by XXXX XXXX XXXX ( 3,320 ;  13 % ). 

Problems with Capital One cards appear to be a nationwide issue, with Cap One receiving the most complaints from consumers in 43 states. In six of the remaining states Connecticut, Maine, Maryland, New Mexico, New York, Utah Citi earned the most complaints, with XXXX XXXX XXXX being the most-hated card issuer in Alaska. 
The complaint portal isnt just for consumers to scream into a black hole about their credit cards. The idea is that the card company is supposed to respond to each complaint within a given time frame. Of course, the cardholders arent always pleased with the card companies responses. 
If the consumer is unhappy with the card issuers response to the complaint, he can file a dispute. Once again, Capital One cardholders filed the most disputes ( 1,044 ), meaning about one out of every five Cap One complaints were disputed. This may have been the largest number of disputes, but its not the highest rate. That belongs to XXXX XXXX, where cardholders disputed 26 % of the resolutions suggested by the card issuer. 

In terms of what people are complaining about, billing issues represented the largest percentage of complaints ( 18 % ), followed by gripes about interest rates ( 10 % ), identity theft ( 7 % ), credit reporting ( 7 % ), or closing and canceling accounts ( 6 % ). 
In the end, the majority ( 60 % ) of all credit card complaints are resolved with merely an explanation from the card company. Complaints resulted in monetary relief 29 % of the time, and with some sort of non-monetary relief in another 10 % of cases.

Evidently there are alot of complaints online about Capital One bank reducing credit limits, and closing accounts with out any type of notice being sent out. Supposedly Capital One is notorious for this type of banking practice. 
That is bad business. I feel there are enough legitimate complaints online to begin an investigation into Capital One banking practices.

Company response to consumer: Closed with explanation
