Capital One acknowledges ‘outage’ as users report issues accessing deposits

Capital One said an unspecified technical issue was hampering customer account access, as some users reported issues with direct deposits.

In response to complaints on social media platform X, a Capital One representative said the bank was experiencing a ‘tech outage’ that was affecting ‘a variety of functions,’ with no timetable for a restoration of services.

Later on Thursday, the company put out an official statement on X about the problem.

‘We are experiencing a technical issue with a third-party vendor that is temporarily impacting some account services, deposits, and payment processing for portions of our consumer, small business, and commercial bank,’ it said.

According to Downdetector.com, which tracks reports of user complaints about digital services, the issues began around 6 a.m. ET Thursday, with some 2,000 reports observed.

The site indicated the frequency of reports had started leveling off around 9 a.m.

A bank spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comment from NBC News.

The issues at Capital One come a day after Citibank acknowledged a problem affecting customers’ ability to access their accounts from mobile devices, as well as an apparent issue related to fraud alerts. While the mobile access issue appeared to have been resolved, a Citi rep said on X on Thursday it was still working to fix the fraud-alert item.

Earlier this month, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau sued Capital One, alleging it misled customers about its savings-account offerings. Capital One has denied the allegations.

This is a developing story. Check back for updates.
