My wife got the Canadian Tire Triangle Mastercard early this year. In March, we noticed three suspicious transactions totalling $36. We paid the full amount and then called their customer service (an inexperienced lazy bunch of people) and told him about the suspicious payments. We know they won’t cover us for that so told him to cancel the credit card and he said it’s done. Later on, we got a supplementary card from them that totally didn’t make any sense to accept so it’s still lying stick to the paper as we didn’t activate it.
Now, they are calling me and my wife to pay $87 more for the purchases and late payments... If the card was cancelled after paying in full, how come she made other purchases? And how come they are sending the supplementary card? On top of that, the amount is claimed on the new card that she didn’t even activate yet. Stay away from them. They are robbers!
I made a payment on my card as usual, but for no reason at all, it put all the funds on hold for two weeks, and when I called to figure it out. The person working for Triangle was not able to give me any good information on why my funds had a 2-week hold on them.

What else will you get:
They don't want to work with you if you've been off work for a year. When I finally got back to work they took almost my whole paycheck. Leaving me with not enough funds to cover the basics, such as rent and utilities.
Run far away from these crooks.
I had a credit card through CT Bank that opened it in 2018. They closed it without my knowledge in 2020 because apparently, I missed 3 months in a row of small payments which was NOT the case. Fast forward to today I went and looked at my credit score to find it dropped significantly due to CTB when they closed my account it says bad debt write off and no one ever contacted me to collect in 2 years. CTB reopened the account and sent it to their bank/collections and reported it on my credit as an individual problem now and it doesn't show now that it was a bad debt write off and closed it shows it is "in collections" and to boot when they closed the account it says amount past due $0 and now it says $1850!!! The report days are within a few days when I printed off the documents to send to trans union to report fraud.
DO NOT ever deal with Canadian Tire Bank. Even when I called they said they are allowed to do this and I was told and shown by my lawyer they are NOT. Bad debt write-off means they wrote it off and no attempts to collect and now 2 years later they are trying to collect and adding interest screwing up people's credit for what purpose?
What a bunch of scammers. I have had this card for 3 months and have been paying off the balance each month. The last payment of 300$ I just found out is being held for two weeks for no reason whatsoever, now I found out I overpaid by 2 dollars and I could spend that in the meantime customer service is rude... When I was transferred to a manager I was lectured about how to make payments...

I have $150 Canadian Tire CT money in the account. So I shopped for a car battery charger that's about $144, plus shipping, it's $156. So I purchased it with my CT money and used my credit card to pay for the balance. The next day I checked my credit card, the CT money is not used, but they charged the entire amount on my credit card! Never trust Canadian Tire, the CT money is a scam.
