Capital One Ruined Discover
Capital One just blocked my latest Discover card purchase while they texted me to confirm whether I made the purchase. No reason: just a big purchase. Discover would never have done that. Discover could magically tell if it was me or not with phenomenal accuracy.
The vendor doesn’t have an easy way to re-run a charge unless you give them a different card. So now I have to work my way through to a human.
Discover has been my default credit card since 1989. Guess my BofA Visa is taking its place
Mergers don’t work if you lose all the customers.
