  • Capital One defaults

    Hi all.
    I have two Capital One defaults recorded against me.
    Ocean & Luma Credit Cards.
    Both went into default Feb 2020, both paid off in Full November 2020.

    As they were low balance/limit cards (Limit £200 each) I tried to plead with them to remove the Defaults, mainly as this is stopping me from gaining employment (worked in finance before I was made redundant prior to cv19).

    After my last attempt to get this cleared had failed, I decided to look through SAR they sent me back in April to see if I could find anything.

    Here's what I've took note of.
    1)
    Card 1 - In November 2017, they placed me in a short payment plan due to financial difficulty - this plan agreement was for 6mths.
    Card 2 - was Opened April 2018 despite already being in a plan with capital one.
    Would this be considered irresponsible lending?

    2) Discrepancy within the Transaction report.

    Card 1 -
    Close bal @ Feb '16: £202.70
    Open bal @ Mar '16: £202.70
    March Debits:. £45.08
    March Credits: -£26.76
    Total Mar'16: £18.32
    Closing Bal: £249.02

    Yep a £28 difference.
    This £28 difference remains on the account until I cleared the card.
    Some months I was over the limit but the £28 would have kept me well inside (approx £120 in Overlimit charges)

    I contacted Capital One about who are looking into it as there system shows that there is two payments for £25 & £3 where as the extract only shows one set.
    The SAR letter states that the extract is a reflection of the information that would of been on statements.

    Card 2 has similar, but the difference on this is £39.99, and again, Overlimit charges applied but I would have been within the limit. (capital one didn't mention anything relating to this.)

    So who/what do I believe, or the FOS will believe?

    The SAR which clearly states "the short form account statements show the opening & closing balance, in addition to any Purchases, cash withdrawals, payments, fees and interest charged. This enables you to see the activity on your account and is a summary of the information that would have been included in your monthly statements"

    The capital one advisor said to continue with my FOS claim as I had received my final response letter regarding the defaults.

    Has anyone ever known statements to be incorrect to a system generated report.

    As I was forced into default for 12+mths due to their error, is it only the 8% interest on fees that can be reclaimed, as this really screwed up a job application.

    I have previously been denied refund of charges by capital one.

        unfortunately an agreement to reduce payments and defaulting has to be recorded on CRA file for max 6 years or 5 years scotland as a true record, anf full final/part satisfaction will show as a factual requirement., capital one has refused to remove it (their right) and you have complained after final response as required by FOS., such a small amount of use of total owed and you had repayment problems, so recording this on credit file as a true record any other points will have to see how FOS adjudications on ?? long queue many of us have complaints in hand for over 1 year or more Have you in writing that your job application due to CRA records?
