CareCredit Omdömen 

Do not do it! They prey on desperate people trying to save their pets, fix their teeth, pay a deductible on a life saving surgery just to turn around and screw you worse that the most ghetto credit card, even worse than a pay day loan. I paid 4 times the minimum payment but they rewarded me by charging $168 for interest, IN ONE MONTH. $168 FOR INTEREST ON $1000, FOR ONE MONTH! The minimum payment was $40. This company should be shut down

I made two purchases on two separate occasions. I called to request the 18 months no interest on those purchases. On both occasions they would not give it to me. I don't see why they could previously do it, but now they can't. I'm upset!

I understood that my chiropractic charge of $2800 would have zero interest if paid off in 18 months, but I did not know that if it was not paid off ALL the interest for those 18 months would be added in and also the interest rate is 40%! I was able to make a final payment of that initial charge with a few days and they refunded my interest, but I had used the card a few more times and now the interest is 40%. I also tried to pay it off with a zero interest transfer balance card and Care Credit declined the payment. They are a joke.

Do not use this card service. They take advantage of people in a time of need and it is not explained in detail. If there is a balance at the end (which I assumed there would be none) and you don’t pay it off, they will charge you all the back interest at 32.99%. This is borderline stealing in my opinion. Taking advantage of a vulnerable population that use it in times of desperation is unforgivable. I ended up paying off my balance in full after finding this out because and I still got a statement for interest due the next month. What credit card does this? And if you’re gonna give credit like this, you should send a statement making them aware that the promotional period is ending, and there will be a balance due. They sure let you know if you’re late on a payment. I don’t understand why there isn’t courtesy the other way. Will not use them again. Everyone should file a complaint with their states consumer and financial affairs division, write to their attorney general as well as all of our local politicians. Also the medical, dental, and medical veterinary examiners board. This should not be happening.

Horrible company, gives you credit then takes it back. Would not recommend to anyone. Read all the fine details. This company is garbage.

Synchrony is a terrible company. Closed my account with no permission, even though I used it often over the last 12 months. Charged a fee for an issue on their end and would not waive it. I have since closed all cards with this bank and will no longer do business with them.

Not a good experience. I had to finance an outrageous fee for neurotrophy treatment. People in pain will try anything to get relief. The cost was $11,000 for a few hundred dollars worth of equipment and a quick chiropractic visit once a month or so. Enter Care Credit to save the day. No interest as long as you pay regularly. Today I saw over $5,000 added to my accounts on a balance of about $4,500. (Sounds like a Vegas loan shark) I found out that it was in the fine print that the no intertest was for only one year. Now they have the upper hand an I assumed that the payments they billed me were designed to pay off the debt in time to avoid the Vegas style interest. They were NOT. I'm convinced that the payment schedule is designed to sneak up on the customer with a gotcha! I understand caveat emptor so I can only blame myself for this oversight. Still my recommendation is RUN AWAY. I can get a no interest credit card with more than a year promotion and not get hit with a 131% interest charge. Balance of $2,524.99 charged $3,300.35 in interest.

Definitely the worst phone system ever. If you try to enroll in auto-pay, there is no warning that you can't use a credit card for auto-pay. AI chat is also a joke.

Their visual verification software sucks. First, it kept reporting that my Android phone's camera was not there. I called them 3 times, and 3 times they insisted on sending me a new link, assuring me that it would work that time. I've been a computer software professional for many years and know how that shit works. They kept acting according to the definition of insanity. Second, I tried to complete verification using my wife's phone. It took 5 go-rounds to complete it b/c it kept nitpicking about the video and pictures. Finally, when it was satisfied with visual verification, the site told me to call an 800 number. When I called, I was told they denied my application even though my credit rating is way over 800. Morons!

I used to recommend Carecrediy to everyone. After sychrony bought them though it screwed up the log in without warning so I couldnt pay a bill or access my cards and when I called to make a payment they entered my information wrong and then refused to remove the charge they put on my card for their mistake nor would they call back after I called 4 times over 3 months. This company is unethical and if I didnt need mt credit I would have never paid thay $30 because I certainly didnt owe it to them. I am canceling my card and will never use sychrony again. I get that no company has integrity anymore but the principal of this was clear. They caused a problem which made me call, they caused a problem by entering my account information wrong, they caused a problem by charging me $30, they caused a problem by never returning my call, they caused a problem by refusing to remove a charge they shouldn't have charged me and it was wrong. I am furious I have given sychrony my buisness ever and will never do so again. I genuinly hope syncrony crashes and goes out of buisness. This wasnt about the money. Obviously I have $30 but so does synchrony and it was the principle of it and this company clearly doesnt know what principles are. The customer service was non existent. I kept calling over months anf was told to keep waiting and they would resolve. Only they never did.

If I could give this company a - star I would THIS COMPANY IS A SCAM DON'T USE THEM THIS IS A REAL REVIEW RUNNN DON'T USE THIS COMPANY FOR FINANCING THIS IS THE WORST COMPANY IN THE ENTIRE WORLD THIS COMPANY CHARGES YOU AN EXTRA $350.00 ON TOP OF YOUR MINIMUM JUST FILE BANKRUPTCY IF YOU HAVE TO TO RID THESE SNAKES, LEECHES OUT OF YOUR LIVES THEY ARE THE BOTTOM OF EARTH SCUM EVIL..... I'm going to contact a attorney to see about filing a class action lawsuit against this company

These guys are worse than the payday loan people as far as taking advantage of folks. Our cat came down with a cancer that was going to cost us a tremendous amount of money, and they were our only option. We made every payment on time and generally more than the minimum. They charged us $1000 in interest in December. We were able to pay them off a couple weeks ago, and we just got another $75 charge for interest, and the Customer Service rep I spoke to said there was nothing she could do about it. I can see why they have a 1.2 star rating on trust pilot. Even with the on-time payments and more than the minimum, they raised our interest rates to almost 40%. It's a scam and they are despicable company. Please don't even consider signing up for CareCredit.

Although it is helpful for medical and dental paymens, the promotional charges are not made clear, and the interest rate is outrageously high, 32.99%. I was hit with a $1900 interest charge that put me over my credit limit. I called customer service to see if they could reduce the rate being a longtime card holder with on time payments, but no luck.

CARE Credit has helped me out when I’ve had veterinary emergencies, and they often extend credit when others won’t, so I appreciate them for that— hence the 3 stars. Unfortunately, I just had a bad experience with them, so I wanted to warn people.

I had a balance of nearly $3,000, and the promotional pricing had expired, so the interest rate accrued suddenly and completely, and was compounding rapidly, so it was becoming unmanageable. I was able to get a bill consolidation loan from my Credit union, so my credit union sent a check to CARE Credit for the loan balance. The check was sent early last week, and all my other creditors received the checks and credited my account, but CARE Credit is pretending they haven’t received the checks yet, and the interest is continuing to compound daily!

Delaying crediting the payoff check until the last second in order to keep charging interest is a shady business practice, and I’m thoroughly disgusted! My vet offers an alternative to CARE Credit now, and I will probably try the new card next time, as a result of this experience!

UPDATE: My original review had 3 stars. I was disgusted that they had delayed my payoff check for more than two weeks, while they continued to charge me high interest daily, but I gave them 3 stars because they had extended credit when I’d needed it for several veterinary emergencies.

Today I reduced my rating to 1 star, because I have a new story to tell! I am so angry! A few weeks ago, I paid more than $3,000 on my bill, reducing what I owed to under $100. I have made a payment since then, and I currently owe them just $65. I have never been late on a payment, and I have paid them several hundred dollars in interest over the years.

Right after I made that huge payment, they abruptly reduced my credit limit from $3,000 down to $250. They’ve always been flexible, so I didn’t give it much thought. Yesterday I had another
veterinary emergency, and the estimate was going to be a little bit over my $250 limit. I requested a credit limit increase to $350– just $100 higher. It was DENIED! Reminder— I’d just paid them $3,000, and I’ve never been late on a payment!

The emergency vet clinic suggested I apply for a different emergency line of credit called Scratch Pay. Scratch Pay offered me credit of $2,800! Fortunately, the bill was only $259. The interest rate and terms were MUCH better than CARE Credit! Next month I’ll be able to pay off the balance of my CARE Credit bill, and I’m going to close my account! From now on I will use Scratch Pay for emergencies!

Straight scammed. I used it for my dentist. Never miss payments. What they like to do is constantly lower your limit with no notice to under your current balance and start charging you overage fees. Even though you weren't over your old limit. Some payments they dont even apply to your balance just to all the random fees.

The worst card! Don't get it, first time I used it they lowered my credit limit from 5000 to 2000 ON THE SAME DAY(OUTRAGEOUS) AND DON"T GET ME STARTED ON CUSTOMER SERVICE! ANYWAY, AVOID IT AT ALL COST!

My cat was dying so I used credit care and synchrony bank.. first mistake! As my cat was in the vet dying I was not able to fully understand that the amount I financed was a promotion deal and now they have lowered my credit limit and caused my credit to shoot down about 80 points! I was not informed and was told it was in my statements of th app if I scrolled down to the bottom, however I was not notified via email nor by mail about any changes! I tried to call and got an extremely rude agent, they said there is nothing they can do and since the promotion ended I have 30 days to pay $,1600. I explained that at the time my cat was dying and the gentleman stated I heard you I understand you said your cat was dying 3 times.. just not compasión and I really did not understand what I signed up for due to it being a difficult situation in the vets and an unexpected death of my cat. Credit care and Synchrony are a scam and horrible option!! If you can avoid it never choose them!! I wish I hadn’t and read the reviews first but my cat was dying so they got over on me!
smh PLEASE AVOID CREDIT CARE AND SYNCHRONY AT ALL COST, WORSE FINANCE I’VE EVER DONE! THEY SHOULD NOT EVEN BE A COMPANY ANYMORE!

I feel mislead. My dog was about to die and I didn't have the money to save her. My vet said we had maybe 30 minutes because she had developed bloat. I knew she was dying and I was desperate. My vet recommended Care Credit. I was so upset when I applied I didn't look at the fine print. I get my statement today and see over a 1000 dollar interest charge. After looking further I see there was a promotion period and if balance wasn't paid my interest would go to 39%. I have no idea how I will pay it off now. Had I looked at the fine print I would have realized it and paid more monthly. Now I have over a negative 1000 dollar available Credit. I am thankful for the credit because it saved my dogs life. But feel the promotional period should have been explained better.

7/21/26:
Just live chatted with a "Susan" b/c now Transunion states that I have a late balance of $87 when I paid the entire balance in full via Discover Card balance transfer AND CLOSED ALL MY CARECREDIT RELATED CARDS MONTHS AGO.
Susan acknowledged that they owe me $8.07 but she refused to contact Transunion and state they were wrong. So disgusting. She and much of the staff need to be FIRED.
Will write every org until they are punished, fined and inconvenienced as much as they did me and my credit score.

Made up charges & accounts...never had a $500 charge yet one appeared on a 2nd account that I never opened. Disgusting company.
They are owned by Synchrony. I have been disputing for many months. My credit was over 800 before Carecredit. All my other accounts are perfect and never tried to rip me off like Carecredit did

Stay away if you can! It took over 6 people until I finally spoke with the last person on why I can’t use my card. There agents in the fraud department are rude and one agent hung up on me after I told him I wanted to speak with a supervisor. I spoke with Amber and she was helpful at first an at the end was not helpful couldn’t even figure out why I can’t use my card. She said there isn’t much I can do.. so I told her so just wait for my account to close then since u can do anything or figure out the reason..All she said was I can transfer u back to customer service… so she did… and the last agent I spoke with if I can give her 5 stars I would. She explained to me why I couldn’t use my card and explained to me it’s listed hear on ur account… I got transferred all over the places and spent over 2 hours waiting…. Horrible customer service. At the end of all this I’m glad I didn’t use the card and glad my account will be canceling on the 16th of April… because who wants to deal with customer service like that… as a customer I sure wouldn’t… if u don’t like ur job as customer service then get a new job then..
