anyone with this card, a word of warning, check and double check all information and make sure you get a confirmation number and possibly talk to a supervisor any time you do a transaction with them, they are shady!! stay away from this company!!!

here's the deal, emerge doesn't issue cards, that is the brand name used for acquired accounts. so there is no need to stay away from them, because you can't get an emerge card.

brittany:
i would suggest that you always get a confirmation number anytime you do a transaction with a credit card company as far as payments go, that would be common knowledge just like you keep track of al the checks you write to all your other bills. speaking to a supervisor would be a waste of time for you and them, and to come the point of irrationality. could you explain how they are shady so that the rest of the group could understand what you mean?

As one who pays off their credit card each month and hasn't had any problems with either of the two previous companies that have owned my account I have to tell you that if you post in support of Emergecard you apparently haven't dealt with Emergecard from a consumer's perspective. To assume that anyone having difficulty with Emergecard is a credit deadbeat is more that a little arrogant. I truly hope you never have to deal with incredibly intentionally poor customer service that I experienced with this company.

My account carried a 3 dollar CREDIT when emerge bought my contract from Fleet. They promptly increased my interest rate to 26.65% and charged me an annual fee of 25.00 which was not in the original contract. So now, instead of carrying a positive balance, I owe them 22.00. From what I am reading, they make it near impossible to reach someone who can help. I'll be trying this afternoon. Wish me luck.
