Review of the Post Office, Credit Card:

Scammers

Reference: 9975072721257435 Received an email on my Clear Score credit file account saying I have pre-approved offers and to apply with confidence. Applied for a Post Office credit card and was told card will arrive 'soon' with pin number. Got the card and pin and tried to activate it using their phone line. Taken to fraud department - man with heavy indian accent asking me if the application was genuine. Found out Post Office C Card is supplied by Capital One. I already have a Ocean Credit Card (Also via Capital One) where my limit was increased from £750 to £1750 and I have been using it in the SAME month I applied with Post Office C Card. Got an email today from Darren Carlile Head of Customer Operations saying after a review the card has been cancelled. On my file there is a CIFAS recorded - heaven knows how and why. Entry date as 04/01/2023. There seems a link between the call centres Capital One uses in India and scams perpetrated by call handlers. Applying for this 'mickey mouse' Post Office card has messed up my credit file and I am totally innocent. Before this I was doing just fine. Be aware everyone. STAY AWAY from Post Office credit card applications. Scammers in India will hijack you. Reviewed on: 9th January 2023
