Discrimination with Accounts
Discrimination with Accounts
This should have a -5 stars; the option isn't available.
I have been a customer with Capital One since before Hibernia (Several Take Overs); therefore, my account is established. I thought I purchased a computer from Dell Sunday, 10/24/21, Capital One even sent a text to confirm the purchase, I thought it was done. I received an email from Dell stating the order was on hold and that I needed to contact the bank. I called Capital One today only to discover there's a $2500 limit on my debit card purchases and that I must contact them for additional use of my funds. I also have a Capital One 360 account with my son. Ms. Lindsey 647628 advised that I could have made the purchase using that account which has a higher limit of $5000. I opened this account for my son whose in college. He has access at 20 with his account than I do at 48 with an account that has been established and opened for decades. This is a form of account discrimination! I was advised that I can close my existing account and open a 360 account to have access to a higher limit on my debit card or I can keep the account I have and continue requesting access to my funds. I just don't get why access must be granted when a text is sent to confirm the transaction. It's our money as customers; we should have access to our funds whenever we want them without getting permission from Capital One!
