OpenSky Credit Card

If I could give less than 1 star, I would.

They treat their new customers like dirt. If you can, go with some place else. This was the most stressful situation I've had to deal with since my bankruptcy 6 years ago. I am trying to rebuild, and they did everything they could to break that.

They never sent me a card, then claimed they had no idea what I was talking about when I told them I did not have a card, even though it showed as not being activated a month after they sent it. I also did not get my first bill until after the due date, which they still charged me a late fee for. 4-6 weeks to get your deposit back, $10 to pay over the phone, and and late fees for their mistakes. Don't bother. Rebuilding credit is not worth this kind of stress.

Not only did this card not build any credit after years for me it actually hurt my credit. There appeared to be an automatic ACH issue on the account. I talked to 3 different Supervisors on numerous occasions and each continued to tell me a different stories. One would say there was no ACH Issue or auto pay on the account, but I would still have problems making payments online, the next Supervisor told me there was an ACH for $1. But he removed it. At any rate it caused me nothing but problems and they never could give me straight answer. Then after I finally gave up and closed the account they advised me it will take 10-14 weeks for my refund... What a joke, you are better off to keep shopping for a legit company!

I am giving it a one after some thought. They say you can get credit increase, but you only can if you pay for it. You can only make 4 payments a month, making you carry a balance over into the next month by refusing your payment. They promise after 6 months and with a credit increase, which mine has, to give you your deposit back wrong. There is no customer service without mailing in your concern. The only reason I would recommend this card is bc without credit your screwed. But to increase your credit you must do the work. Be mindful of your credit debit ratio and make payments. I still have this account open only because it's my oldest card. $9 a month plus 75 a year. Get it and get out with this card! It's terrible.

A secured card was good for my credit situation. However, payments take over a week to post and reflect an accurate available amount. The second you go over the limit (sometimes via their own charges i. E. the $3 one) they report it to credit bureaus. They then wait another 4-5 weeks to report an updated balance. A few weeks ago I used the card for a security deposit for uhaul and the amount is still not credited back to my account. If you have no other options it's fine, but unreliable and inconvenient.

I am completely satisfied with this card so far! I am using it to boost my credit score so I can buy a home and within the first month 2 bureaus went up... one 39 and the other 51. It does take about 5 days or so to post payment to account so I would recommend paying no later than a week before the billing date. I just had Hulu auto pay my card and make payments online to opensky via my checking account. I would definitely recommend this card if you need a credit boost!

I never took care of my credit until I was looking into buying a house was told i needed a 580+ credit score to start process. I did not want to add another inquiry to my credit so i opted for the open sky visa. Added $400 after 3 months of good payment history credit score went from 481 to 594! Not perfect but I'll take it. I have never had a problem with them, the app is pretty self explanatory the first payment did take 1-2 weeks to post now on my 4th month the available credit is updated a day after my payment. Just stay under 10-30% usage and your credit will rise fast.

You find the card yourself and that's fine but what isn't fine is that when you make a payment it takes a week to affect your available credit. Was told by account rep that it was just the first payment and after that it would be within two days. Made second payment still didn't credit for four days so called and was told always would be 5 to 7 days. Completely BS when you pay fees and fund it yourself. Your money should be available as soon as it clears your bank. Stay away from this dishonest company.

I have an OpenSky credit card for two-plus years. They have a very long wait time to speak with a representative. When I call to report fraudulent charges the nightmare begins. They gave me the wrong information and forgot to report all of the fraudulent charges. I tried to tell them because they didn't give temporary credit for all the transactions. They had my credit card account in the negative for one going two months and charged me late fees. They told me how to make a minimum payment I did they still had me in the negative. They transferred me around to another credit card that does not work with my credit card company. My phone calls were disconnected when they put me on hold. On or around September 15,2023, they again gave me wrong information and transferred around a total of 7 people and was still not help with my issues. They told Mr. That the fraudulent transaction investigation was closed but they missed two to three fraudulent transactions I told them many times to add them but they kept saying they were added. It is amazing how disorganized this company is. They told me one thing then I received a letter saying someone else. My credit score was effectively very negative because of their sloppiness. I strongly recommend that you do your business somewhere else. It's many credit cards that can help build your credit with less headaches and mental stress.
