Dear Bonnie,

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.

I’m really sorry to hear we’ve not been able to increase your credit limit for you. I can appreciate your frustrations, especially as you’ve been a long time customer of ours.

You can apply for a credit limit increase via mobile app to check your eligibility, but we cannot guarantee any credit limit increase as it's down to our lending policy. We’ll also let you know if your account becomes eligible for a credit limit increase in the future.

If you remain unhappy with this, you can find information about how to raise a complaint at: www.capitalone.co.uk/support/making-your-complaint.

Kind regards,
Laura

My first year with capital one

My first year with capital one has helped me to improve my credit score and paying the money back is so smooth it just automatically comes out of my bank account each month also if you want to make additional payments you can you just have to log in on your app to your account and it will take you through it what you have to do I would really recommend this company if you want to build up your credit score

Dear Mr Imran,

We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. We understand your concerns regarding the APR and the Apple Pay.

To avoid paying purchase interest, you must pay your statement balance in full and on time for at least two consecutive months and then continue to do this without breaking the chain. This only applies to purchases and doesn’t apply to cash or balance transfers. If you need more information about APR and interest, please contact our customer services team on 03444 812812 (Monday to Friday 7am - 9pm, Saturday & Sunday 8am - 5pm) to discuss this further.

We are actively working on improving our app's ease of use and exploring options to integrate with Apple Pay. We’re working hard to ensure this function becomes available for customers in the future but at this stage we cannot guarantee when this will happen.

We can assure you that customer satisfaction is of paramount importance to us, and we’re constantly striving to improve our services.

Kind regards
Deep

Wonderful and very useful credit card

Wonderful and very useful credit card! It helped me build up my credit score and gave me more confidence by gradually increasing my initial credit limit.

I’ve had a very positive experience and would genuinely recommend it to anyone looking to build or improve their credit history.

Dear Mike,

We appreciate you sharing your experience. We understand your desire for an increased limit after a year of timely payments. We're glad the card is otherwise easy to use.

You can apply for a credit limit increase via mobile app to check your eligibility, but we cannot guarantee any credit limit increase as it's down to our lending policy. We’ll also let you know if your account becomes eligible for a credit limit increase in the future.

If you need more information, please contact our customer services team on 03444 812812 (Monday to Friday 7am - 9pm, Saturday & Sunday 8am - 5pm) to discuss this further.
