They are terrible!!!!!

I have had excellent credit and for some reason Capital One wants to ruin it. I was not receiving any statements for nearly a year despite calling and asking for them. They reported me as a late payment for $4. They out source their customer service overseas so you can't really understand the person and they do not follow through despite saying they will. Still don't have any statement of what I owe for over a year, I have to guess. So terrible I cancelled this card. Still haven't received a statement.
