Comenity Bank Reviews
Comenity Bank, located online at Comenity.net, is a financial institution that provides the backing of many different store and brand credit cards and credit accounts.
How Does it Work?
According to their website, the goal of Comenity and their two subsidiaries, Comenity Bank and Comenity Capital Bank, is to make the shopping experience of consumers better.
Consumers who choose store credit cards and credit accounts do so because they love that retailer, but their incentive for keeping the card comes from the benefits they receive from being an account holder.
Comenity Bank says they work with many of the nation’s most popular places to shop to create credit programs for their customers which help keep their customers happy and loyal to their brand.
In pursuing this goal, they have successful backed over 28 million store credit cards or accounts, and their website says they continue to work hard to make sure their credit programs are clear, easy to use, and easy to manage.
If you have a Comenity backed account, you can use their website to manage your account, as well as utilize the other helpful tools available on their website for your own personal benefit.
They provide articles which address financial health, both from the angle of providing their customers with general tips and guidelines for promoting good finance and more specific articles that focus on having and maintaining good credit.
Customer Service
Customers who have issues, questions, or complaints can contact Comenity Bank directly at one of their customer service phone numbers, depending on the nature of the issue they are seeking help with.
You can also contact the company by mail at their address in Columbus, OH or with a simple email submission directly through their website if your issue is not urgent and you have no need to speak to someone directly.

Awful Banking / Billing Dept.
How could this be???
This is regarding my dispute with Comenity Capital Bank (my account number ending in: 4565) that issued Lending Club Patient Solutions a credit of $10,350 that was then paid to Excel Dental & Implant Center for the upcoming dental treatment of my son, Joseph T. Durica, the patient. I signed the so-called Active Treatment Plan (1) agreement with Excel Dental on 3/6/2023 that depicts the entire dental treatment for my son Joseph T. Durica (the patient) at the total cost of $10,350. There were no items in the treatment plan that became a subject to this dispute, listed/specified as “surgical stents,” commonly used in connection with dental implants.
On 3/6/2023, my son, Joseph T. Durica, the patient, received an x-ray from Excel Dental in the amount of $410, the only service/procedure since my son decided not to proceed with the treatment and therefore, he cancelled all further services/procedures within 72 hours as required by the Active Treatment Plan (1) agreement. Therefore, Excel Dental was supposed to refund $9,940 to Comenity Capital Bank from the total of $10,350. About three months later (5/23/2023) Excel Dental produced three fabricated charges for so-called “surgical stents,” each at $375 even though my son has received no implants at Excel Dental, nor has he received any additional service at Excel Dental beyond 3/6/2023.
I paid off my account balance of $410 for the service received, in fact I overpaid it by $40, on 10/12/2023 which is well before the maturity of my account, being 3/6/2024, after which date, I would be charged an interest for the outstanding balance. After my last payment I have notified Comenity Capital Bank that I will not be making any more payments and that I remain disputing the charges as I stated before.
On 2/22/2024 Comenity Capital Bank posted to my online account a request for a new minimum payment in the amount of $88 that includes $29 late fee. Based on Comenity Capital Bank I am supposed to owe the bank $1,114 even though I have overpaid my account by $40. However, this is not the most recent statement from Comenity Capital Bank/Lending Club Patient Solutions. The most recent statement is dated 3/17/2024 based on which I am supposed to owe them $1,167.73 (with piled up interest and late fees charges). This amount, like the one before and any other that may follow, I completely dispute based on the facts I shared here earlier. How could this be? How could a bank like this still exist? No consequences. Where is the law? Is this the USA?
How are they still in business?
AVOID COMMENITY BANK - YOUR CREDIT WILL BE AFFECTED ON GOOD ACCTS
Lousy customer service
To get this resolved
This company is a total rip off they are terrible. I had these account with Dell Financial some how this rip off company got my loan I received no notice when I knew they had my loan was when the charged me 250.00 in interest charges. SInce never got noticed in the mail I though if I pay the loan off they would take the interest but definitely not. I tried to pay them off with a major credit card they dont accept credit cards but the supply credit cards. On top of the interest of 250.00 I am charged 15.00/16.00 a month extra of interest, They are bad business
Dishonest.
Comenity bank is usury at its finest. They are inconsistent, dishonest and scammy.
Their accounts often include hidden fees and minimums. Payments will be applied randomly to multiple financed plans and their system does not have real time balance reporting.
Their websites are trash.
They will also randomly close accounts for no reason.
Comenity: expect to be scammed.
It’s a scam company and you never seem to be able to pay anything off due to interest
I used to have comenity bank with my Wayfair account and they were to difficult to deal with so I closed the account after they ruined my credit score on items I never bought. Now, I see they are doing the same thing with my Talbots card. After i finally get out of the mess they’ve made with that, I will never ever do business with any company that uses comenity, Wayfair or Talbots again. I’ve spent countless hours and being shuffled back and forth between comenity, Wayfair and Talbots and no one seems to be accountable for anything.
SCAM OR POOR BUSINESS PRACTICE.
Comenity bank calls me 2 times a day but won't say any thing. I recently was frauded involving 4 different transactions on my pnc bank reward card totaling $200. My bank called me about it. I got phone #'s from all of them and everything about them was similar.
Same unprofessional response, noise in background and same people. I caught 1 lady goofing up and saying "Oh I see you have another transaction for $59 ". I responded that I just called a company in phillipines who said that was a transaction they had. I told her I was calling the police if I don't get my refund. She was so nervous and needed to ask someone. I said no you are to late and I hung up on her.
She immediately called me back and pleaded with me to give my money back. I told her again it was too late. I followed up on those companies and found out they were all scam companies. I got my money back. ]
But since then Comenity bank calls 2 times a day and won't say anything when I answer. Checked them out and they are most likely a rip off scam company.
Worse financial service I’ve ever experienced
Is it possible to give a - rating? If so, that’s what this bank would get. After Dell transferred their financial services over to Con-enemy bank, I’ve experienced nothing but headaches in dealing with them. From the initial experience of registering my account, to setting up payments, to lack of customer support, this has been the most difficult financing institution I’ve ever had the displeasure of dealing with.
The online experience was clunky and glitchy initially to set up the account and the phone support was not helpful in the least.
Needless to say I’ll be closing my account as soon as possible and not doing business with them.
Horrible business. Will never use them again.
We used to have excellent credit. We applied for a card through our favorite store, gave them our new address and purchased a few dollars worth of stuff.
The bill was sent to our old address, several states away and we never got it.
So they reported it to collections. We don't even know how they got our old address.
So we called them. We paid the bill, gave them our new address and cancelled the card.
Then they reported us again.
They told us that we didn't pay the interest (2 dollars) and all of the added fees. They sent us a bill - to our old address, again - and reported us again.
Knock a hundred points off of our credit, zero confidence that they won't just do it again.
AND when we were talking to them, the rep was rude, treated us like criminals, and hung up on us.
Never again will I get anything from this bank. Never, ever, ever.
Scamming customers using St. Jude

They are quick to charge a late fee. I had a dispute with them and they never investigated it to get me a refund but the company I had a dispute with settled it later when I called the customer service number instead of the location of the disputed amount.

RUN AWAY!!!!!
Run! Run fast!
Any card I get I make sure it is not a commenity card. They are terrible, we received 12 calls a day on vacation for 25 dollars. We were on tours and stuff and couldn’t go thru getting the card out and writing down confirmations so we sent it to voicemail and took care of it at the hotel however it was ridiculous. Also beware because of the lawsuits and such they have changed their name to Bread Financial.
I called Caesar's Rewards customer service and asked them not to renew their contract with them.
FRAUDULENT THIEVES
I applied for Dental First insurance plan to pay for dental work in 2019. I was approved for approximately $7,500. Comenity, who oversees Dental First, took $347 out of my bank account automatically for several years (high interest rate), until it was paid off in Dec 2021. I didn't need dental work until now, but find that Comenity closed my account because I didn't need dental work for a period they deemed by whim that I should have had dental work. The $1,000's I paid into this finance plan is now unaccessible and I never received any notice whatsoever to maintain the plan or that Comenity was going to close my account due to my teeth being too health. They will be hearing from my attorney and I am considering a class action lawsuit. STAY AWAY FROM COMENITY: THEY ARE FRAUDULENT THIEVES.
Awful deceptive Company. Stay away from Comenity and AAA cards!
I did not sign up for this terrible bank.
I had a credit card with AAA. Well they changed my credit card to this terrible bank.
Right away after the change I figured out how incredibly crooked Comenity bank is. They do not even have an App.
They try to cheat people by making it very hard to find information.
I paid off the entirety and will never do any business with them ever again. These kind of banks should never be allowed to operate. .
Also AAA i am canceling your card After 32 years just because you knew this bank was horrible but you were getting greedy and you thought you could get more interest and late payments from poor people that could not figure out how to find and understand how to pay this crooked scam company. Shame on you AAA for not caring anymore either.
Don’t use community bank terrible customer service
I filed a dispute with them last July and they did nothing but kept telling that the dispute was still open but one is not supposed to pay any interest on account with a dispute. They will have to really improve to earn 1*. They were good though I getting people to call me early in the morning about the disputed charge.
