Complaint narrative:
For 8 weeks, I have been entering my ID and password CORRECTLY. 
But, Capital One WebSite, keeps flashing " sending to your account '' then a web page announces " We have hit a snag '' please try again later. 
This has been going on for 8 weeks on all XXXX of my accounts. 
5 weeks ago, someone from the tech department very ignorantly deleted all my security questions. The tech department would not reverse their actions. 
Three weeks ago, I entered all new questions and answers. 
Today, the same problem occurred and the tech department demanded that I change the security questions again INSTEAD of Capital One fixing the REAL PROBLEM. 
I called Capital One 's Headquarters and requested a vice-president of the credit card department but ignorantly as Capital One is ; the secretary sent me back to the very doofus customer service department. 
I WILL ONLY COMMUNICATE WITHA VICE-PRESIDENT AND NO OTHER STAFF. 
If not acceptable by Capital One, I want a {$30000.00} payment from Capital One just to have me communicate with me.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing you as a last resort to attempt to settle a debt with your company.  Over fifteen years ago I received XXXX preapproved business credit cards XXXX  I was under the impression at the time that these cards were business cards and that the business was responsible for paying the accounts.  We maintained the accounts for 15 years, even during the lean recession years when our operating credit line was yanked out from under us from BBVACompass.  The business was forced to liquidate, but we continued to pay our accounts.  

In XX/XX/2013, my mother was XXXX and I immediately began to care for my mother XXXX  At the same time I was attempting to XXXX prepare XXXX tax returns, manage my home finances and my mother's finances.  It was also during this vulnerable time that XXXX employees took advantage of the fact I was frequently out of the office and embezzled XXXX from the company.  They were subsequently charged and we are still awaiting trial two years later.  

I left XXXX the company XXXX when the cards were issued, in XX/XX/2013.  Due to the theft, the business was forced to contract and could no longer afford my salary.  I have since learned that XXXX did not take care of the debt and I have been sued by an attorney in XXXX Alabama.  While I am currently employed XXXX, my salary has been cut severely and my savings depleted as I had to care for my mother until she died in XX/XX/2013  

The attorney that Capital One assignment the business account to has sued me personally for the debt of XXXX plus and indicates that it is a means to put pressure on me to pay the debt since the company is no insolvent.  Their exact words "if you don't lose your job, pay the bill and avoid the garnishment."

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
We received an email from our credit card company, Capital One, on XXXX/XXXX/16 Friday asking us to confirm recent purchases. We called on Monday, XXXX/XXXX/16 to confirm, and they said it was too late, that one of our merchant 's systems had been compromised and they may be collecting sensitive account information, so they were turning off the credit card. We asked which merchant, and they would n't tell us. We asked them to please not turn off the card because it is used for business expenses, but they said they could n't do that. They said they would send us a new card. We have waited two weeks, and still no card. Today, XXXX/XXXX/16, Monday we called to ask what the status was. They said the card was still in effect, but had just been labeled to restrict use. They never told us a new card was n't coming in the mail. We asked them to turn the existing card back on, and they finally agreed to that. Two weeks ago we asked them the same thing, and they would n't do it. This has caused an interruption in our ease of business, as the owner of the company has not had his business credit card to use for the past two weeks. Very disappointed in Capital One 's lack of communication and lack of customer service to service our needs.

On XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter from Capital One regarding my concerns with my APR on my credit card account. I do not agree with the APR because it is still very expensive. I have a minimum payment that is less than the APR % which does n't do any good when I pay my bill. I have asked for a lower APR rate so that I can pay my card off in XXXX 2016. Capital One has continued to deny the decrease in the APR and my fees are the card are large which makes it hard to pay down the card. I have called Capital One several times and got the run around from different representatives. I was supposed to speak with XXXX XXXX the representative handling my case. She has called back one time and left a message. Again I have called several times and no one has addressed my concerns.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Sometime during the week of XXXX XXXX, I contacted CapitalOne bank to close a savings account I had in XXXX. Because I had to have the balance mailed to a different address than the one on record, they told me the address change would take 10 days, after which the account would be closed and a check mailed to the new address in Florida. The account reflects that the account was closed on XXXX XXXX. A second check for a lesser amount was also issued for the interest earned but not recorded at the time of closure of the account. To date, I have not received the money. I called about it during the week of XXXX XXXX, and was told if the check had not arrived by XXXX XXXX, I should contact them. I contacted them on XXXX XXXX and was told that the check had been mailed but not cashed. They then told me an account advocate would contact me in one or two days and I could arrange to have the check overnighted. On XXXX XXXX, the account advocate contacted me and told me I would have to sign affidavits stating I had not received the checks. They could mail the affidavits to me ( which would again delay the release of the money ) - or fax it to me - and I do not have a fax. I then requested that they e-mail me the forms, which they have agreed to, but I have to take it to a notary. The amount of money is nearly {$330000.00} and not earning interest since XXXX XXXX. I now have to sign the affidavit in front of a notary and return it to them - which I can do and will do. But the entire process they have required seems a deliberate effort to release the money from CapitalOne to me. And, there is no provision for the interest to be paid during the time of the bank closing the account and me receiving it - which date is still up in the air.

I have tried multiple times to get this taken care of. I have no knowledge of the debt they have on my credit report. I mailed an original police report showing I have no knowledge of these debts, and they refused to respond to me. I want this invalid debt removed from my credit report, and I am willing to do whatever they need me to do to prove it 's not valid. 

The first company XXXX has also not been fair. They said someone signed a lease UNDER MY NAME completely online. That does n't even make sense, no real way to verify. When I offered to drive to XXXX to show my ID and prove it was never me they said they did n't keep any kind of camera or records like that. I never lived in those apartments and I DEFINITLEY never signed a lease it was fraud. They only tell me they ca n't look into it further and I have email correspondence with XXXX.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
The reporting constitutes an outdated demerit past the legal time limit and collection of the initial matter exceeded the California Statute of Limitations of 4 years and should be removed. 

There was a dispute regarding application of payments towards account which led to a discrepancy in the crediting of payments made, a negotiation took place and favorable results were obtained, however the company did not follow our stipulation and erroneously made incorrect payment remarks on my account. Problems occurred with customer service not be effective in resolution of the problem. I contend that I was in complete compliance with the payment terms and conditions and that all payments were made in a timely fashion. 

After a lengthy continued negotiation on the matter illegal collection continued which exceed the statute of limitations- 4 years. The debt is illegal, contains outdated demerits and must be removed as it exceeds the legal time limit. All payments were made in a timely manner and in a sufficient amount as not to be a contractual violation at a time when the contract was valid.

Complaint narrative:
I recently quoted with XXXX. I provided accurate information to XXXX in order to obtain auto insurance to replace my current policy with XXXX XXXX, which ends on XXXX XXXX. I was quoted $ XXXX/month for 6 months under terms that provided for several liability coverages, and also included {$200.00} deductibles for comprehensive and collision. 

Upon entering my license, XXXX stated they they found additional information in my reporting file from LexisNexis, and increased the rate to approximately {$1100.00} for a 6-month policy term. This rate was increased from about {$690.00}, a total increase of almost {$500.00}. 

XXXX indicated that the increase in the quoted amount was due to the LexisNexis report signaling that I have failed to continuously maintain insurance for the past 6 months. This is untrue ; I have maintained continuous insurance for over 2 years on various vehicles and my current policy does not expire until XXXX XXXX. 

This inaccurate information is going to cause me damages of approximately {$500.00} over the next 6 months. I want LexisNexis to correct the inaccurate information about me in their file, and for XXXX to honor their original quote, which reflected the accurate information that I provided them.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: MN

Complaint narrative:
Last year, I applied for and was given a credit-card by Capital One. Under their rules, a starter account is opened in the amount of {$300.00}, and then, per their rules, if you make 5 consequitive on time payments, they raise your credit limit to {$500.00}. I reached that level. In XXXX, I filed a chapter XXXX bankruptcy, and they ( Capital One ) closed my account even though I DID NOT INCLUDE THEM IN THE BANKXXXX! My payments were always on time, and when I last looked, I had a balance of about {$120.00}, which I tried to pay, but was locked out of the account. I have written two letters to them, and I get no response. I offered that if they issued a card again with either the {$500.00} or {$300.00} credit line, minus what I owed, I would pay it upon receipt. I had no intention of trying to get out of paying them, my intent was to start rebuiding my credit. I did not deserve to have my credit yanked for no reason. I never missed a payment, my payments were on time, sometimes before they were due, and I usually paid more than the amount due. They do not respond, they offer no relief or options, much less an apology for closing an account that was not delinquent. Recently! I applied for another one of their starter cards, and was denied, with the response being I did or do owe them money! I owe them about {$120.00}, and had they kept the account open, it would have been paid. This is blantantly misleading and wrong for them to not allow me to have the card, and secondly, since I did not include them, I should have been allowed to pay what I owed. I do not have the account no anymore, they can look me up by my social XXXX
