by Firefox user 15307956, 5 years agoI'm a long-time Capital One Banking customer. After BofA discontinued their virtual credit card numbers ("ShopSafe") I opened a Capital One Savor One card account for the SOLE PURPOSE OF USING VIRTUAL NUMBERS FOR ONLINE SHOPPING. After receiving the card and attempting to set up Eno I was frustrated by the inability to log into my account / verify my account, which requires the ability to receive an SMS text. I do not have a mobile phone, and the Google Voice account that I have isn't "acceptable" to the Eno verification process. Every other financial account or service that I have (and there are almost a dozen of them, not including the IRS..) allows me to verify either by a phone call, a hard-copy mailed PIN, or an email sent to the address on file. It appears that Capital One doesn't care much about their customer's needs or requirements, since the only option being provided for Eno verification is the SMS/text of an identifier. After an hour with Tech Support and an escalation to a supervisor I've been told "this is the way it is". So non-mobile phone users are automatically excluded as Eno users. That is blind thinking.
Since I can't use Eno I've decided to open a competitor's card account (the one remaining provider of virtual card numbers), and while I'm at it I may as well move my banking accounts as well. I already have too many accounts at different institutions.
If this isn't fixed in 90 days I'll have no need for the Savor One card. After I've earned the $150 spiff that I get for the new card I'll be closing that account. Thanks Capital One for the $150 and for the memories.

We're working on a solution that will both continue to protect your accounts while at the same time allowing you to verify your identity that doesn't rely on a phone number. No immediate timeline is available. In the meantime, you may continue to try registering periodically.
