When the website & your card works, it's a great card with lots of perks. There is NO CUSTOMER SERVICE. The website will tell you to call customer service & no one will answer your call.
Very bad customer service they will never solve the problem as they will never take the call always on the waiting list for 3 to 4 hours and then you will give up if you have only one job to call them they may call them from morning to evening or to night maybe then they will pick up:-(

Anyone looking to get double charged on your account using PC Express? Do you know? That nifty feature, allowing you to purchase a product from your home and then go to collect it at a later date? I used it for the first time ever and later found out that not only did they charge my credit card on file, I ALSO had to pay when I got there. Looked at my PC App and saw a charge on there. So basically you'll be paying double and then wait 5 full business days to get your money back. Who honestly comes up with this? So poorly planned. Do they also have anyone working there?? I feel like no one is ever there when I need to talk to someone. I am so going to cancel this credit card. So much trouble for little reward.
We have had PC Mastercards for more than a decade. We have always paid our balance off in full each and every month. We moved in July. I called to change the address on my card and advised the customer service representative that the address on my husband's card would also need to be changed. I was assured that it was. Fast forward 4 months...( during which time) we received no phone calls, no notifications, no emails, no statements sent in the mail; nothing for my husband's card. My card, yes and I continued to pay off the monthly balance in full each and every time. Last week, My husband attempted to use his card only to find out that it had not only been suspended... but sent to collections!!! One would think that a company that has a long time, responsible customers who have ALWAYS paid their bill on time would have, at the very least tried to contact us to find out what the issue was!?! Then, to add insult to injury, while trying to rectify the situation, I was on hold for over 48 mins, spoke to a representative who then put me on hold again (without asking) and now, as I type this, my time wait time is at 1 hour and 53 mins. (and still holding) My advice to anyone out there thinking of getting a PC Mastercard- DON"T! Use another credit card. These people do not deserve to be in business! Nor do they deserve your business. Disgusting!
PS. I tried to give NO stars for customer service but it would not allow me to submit without one star-note-customer service is really ZERO stars!
We opened an account just 3 weeks ago. In that time we have spent more than 6 hours on hold waiting to speak with a customer representative. Now today I was told we would need to call back once again.
Very much - strongly recommend not joining/working with this terrible company.
We are closing our account.

I have been trying to call them for over a week. 1 day I was on hold for 52 mins then transferred and placed on hold again for 40 mins and then hung upon. 🤦🏼♀️
I am currently at 45 mins on hold and I really just need to know why it's been over a month to receive my new card.
I am horrified by the customer service. They really need to fix this.
The phone wait times are insane and often result in a transferring of departments, and additional wait times. Sometimes receiving a notice that it's not even available.
When speaking with customer service the quality and knowledge is low, most likely what leads to a transfer.
Zero justification for their actions.
Example: notified them I would be travelling, my card was deactivated while travelling, unable to reach support to resolve the issue. Was told the issue was resolved, continued to be unable to use it.
Took about 4 days to get through to someone who could actually look into the card.
"Risk department" then proceeded to spend 30 mins going over my most recent transactions... none of which I could actually confirm due to not having access to my online account to view these transactions that took place in another country.
Complete waste of time and the service provider was completely incapable of understanding the level of frustration or to explain why the card was deactivated or apologizing for the inconvenience this caused.
Trying to get a call in because my replacement card was sent to the wrong address. I fixed this through the automated system but I wanted to ensure that I received my new card before my current one expired. WAITED FOR HOUR AND A HALF no answer on their lost/stolen card line. Had to give up because... you know I have a life to lead.

I've spent a month trying to get someone to get in touch with me unsuccessfully. Avoid this product. They used to be so much better but now their customer service is absolutely terrible. I never used to have an issue with their service but now it takes 2 hours to get through to someone on the phone and then that person doesn't have any authority to actually do anything and your issue will need to be "escalated" and will go on and on forever without being addressed. I've been a customer for 20 years but am jumping to another rewards program because of the poor customer service I have experienced.

FRUSTRATING customer service. If you enjoy spending hours on hold and a website that doesn't work, by all means, get this card.
I haven't used the card because the first time they sent it, it didn't arrive. I sat on hold for an hour to be told "sit tight - it's probably going to arrive in the next day or two!".
Three weeks later, still hadn't arrived. I sat on hold for another hour to be told "we'll send you another card!"
The card finally arrived.
I try to activate it online, fill out everything, get the message "The system is unavailable. Try again in 10-15 minutes".
Tried the chat feature. It's a bot that cannot answer any but the most basic questions.
