Capital One® Services, LLC P.O. Box 30285 Salt Lake City, UT 84130-0285

Minimum Payment: $108.00

July 19, 2016

Dear Phillip I Williams,

Being past due on your credit card bill can seem overwhelming_we’d like to work with you to find a payment solution that fits your needs. Here are some options:

  • In order to bring your account up to date, make your minimum payment of $108.00 by AUGUST 12, 2016.

  • If you can’t quite make that payment, you can contact us and we will calculate a lower payment amount for you to make by AUGUST 12, 2016. This payment won’t bring your account up to date, but it will prevent it from becoming more past due.

  • We also have flexible payment options that let you split payments up over a few months.

Please remember that becoming more past due will result in your security deposit being applied to your balance. If your security deposit is applied to your balance, you will be responsible for any remaining balance.

To find out more about these options, just call us at 1-800-955-6600. We’re available Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. ET, and Saturday and Sunday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET.

Sincerely,

Capital One Services, LLC

PLEASE SEE REVERSE SIDE FOR IMPORTANT INFORMATION

How can I Avoid Paying Interest Charges? If you pay your statement’s “New Balance” in full by the due date, we will not charge interest on any new transactions that post to the Purchase balance. If you have been paying your account in full with no interest charges, but then you do not pay your next “New Balance” in full, we will charge interest on the portion of the balance that you did not pay. For cash advances and special transfers, we will start charging interest on the transaction date.

How is the Interest Charge applied? Interest charges accrue from the 1) date of the transaction, 2) date the transaction is processed or 3) first calendar day of the billing period. Interest charges accrue on every unpaid amount until it is paid in full. This means you may owe interest charges even if you pay the entire “New Balance” one month, but did not do so for the previous month. Unpaid interest charges are added to the proper segment of your Account. However, we reserve the right to not assess interest charges at any time.

Do you assess a Minimum Interest Charge? Yes. A minimum INTEREST CHARGE of $0.50 will be assessed for each billing period your account is subject to an interest charge.

How do you Calculate the Interest Charge? We use a method called Average Daily Balance (including new transactions). Under this method, we first calculate your daily balance; for each segment, 1) take the beginning balance and add in new transactions and the periodic interest change on the previous day’s balance, then 2) subtract any payments and credits for that segment as of that day. The result is the daily balance for each segment. However, if you paid your previous month’s balance in full (or if your balance was zero or a credit amount), new transactions which post to your purchase or special purchase segments are not added to the daily balances. Also, transactions that are subject to a grace period are not added to the daily balances.

Next, to find your Average Daily Balance: 1) add the daily balances together for each segment, and 2) divide the sum by the number of days in the billing cycle.

At the end of each billing cycle, we determine your Interest Charge as follows: 1) multiply your Average Daily Balance by the daily periodic rate (APR divided by 365) for that segment, and 2) multiply the result by the number of days in the billing period. NOTE: Due to rounding or a minimum interest charge, this calculation may vary from the interest charge actually assessed.

How can my Variable Annual Percentage Rate (APR) change? Your APR may increase or decrease based on one of the following reported indices (reported in The Wall Street Journal). To find which index is used for your account, look for a letter code on the front of this statement next to your APR(s). Then check the table below:

Code next to your APR(s)How do we calculate your APR(s)? Index + margin (previously disclosed to you)When your APR(s) will change
PPrime Rate + marginThe first day of the billing periods that end in Jan., April, July, and Oct.
L3 month LIBOR + margin
DPrime Rate + marginThe first day of each monthly billing period.
F1 month LIBOR + margin

Are there Additional Fees associated with my account? Yes, under certain circumstances, you may be assessed a Late or Returned Payment fee. You may also be assessed Overlimit fees if permitted by law. We reserve the right to not assess fees without prior notice and without waiving our right to assess a similar fee later.

How can I Avoid Membership Fees? If a Renewal Notice is printed on the front of this statement, you may avoid paying an annual membership fee by contacting Customer Service no more than 45 days after the last day in the billing cycle covered by this statement to request that we close your account. To avoid paying a monthly membership fee, contact Customer Service anytime to request that we close your account, and we will stop assessing your monthly membership fee.

How can I Close My Account? You can contact Customer Service anytime to request that we close your account. At that time, we’ll explain any additional steps to account closure, including balance pay down information and timelines.

What happens if my Account is Suspended? We may close or suspend your account and your right to obtain credit at any time and for any reason, even if you are not in default. Account suspension can be permanent or temporary. If your account is closed or suspended you must 1) stop using your credit card and account, 2) cancel all automatic payments, 3) destroy all credit cards and access checks, and 4) pay all amounts you owe us, even if they were charged after the account was closed or suspended.

How do I Make Payments? At any time, you may pay the minimum payment, the total unpaid balance, or any amount in between. Payments may be made in several ways:

  1. Online by going to www.capitalone.com and logging into your account;

  2. Telephone Voice Response System by dialing 1-800-955-7070 and following the voice prompts. When you make a phone payment through our voice response system, you authorize us to initiate an ACH or electronic payment that will be debited from your bank account. Funds may be withdrawn from your bank account as soon as the same day we process your payment;

  3. Calling our telephone number 1-800-955-7070 and providing your information to our representative;

  4. Payments by mail should be sent to the mailing address provided on the bottom portion of this statement.

  • For online or over the phone, as of the business day we receive it, as long as they are made by 8 p.m. ET.

When will you Credit My Payment?

For mailed payments, as of the business day we receive it, as long as: 1) you send the bottom portion of this statement and check to the payment address on the front of this statement and 2) your payment is received in our processing centers by 5 p.m. local time. Please allow at least (7) business days for mail delivery. Mailed payments received by us at any other location or in any other form may not be credited as of the day we receive them.

Do you Process Paper Checks as an Electronic Funds Transfer? Payments will be processed in one of two ways: When you provide a check or check information to make a payment, you authorize us or our agents to use the information to make a one time ACH transaction or other electronic fund transfer from your deposit account. We may also use the information to process the payment as a check transaction.

What if I file for Bankruptcy? If you are entitled to bankruptcy protection, this communication is for information only. It is not an attempt to collect, assess or recover a debt or claim. Do not send us payments without speaking with your bankruptcy attorney or the Bankruptcy Court. If you or your attorney would like to contact our bankruptcy claims servicer directly, please contact: Capital One • PO Box 30285 • Salt Lake City, UT 84130-0285

In your letter, give us the following information:

  • Dollar amount: The dollar amount of the suspected error.

While we investigate whether or not there has been an error, the following are true:

  • We cannot try to collect the amount in question, or report you as delinquent on that amount.

  • The charge in question may remain on your statement, and we may continue to charge you interest on that amount. But, if we determine that we made a mistake, you will not have to pay the amount in question or any interest or other fees related to that amount.*
