New ReviewerI am writing this to you out of frustration. We have had a Menards card since the 90s.
My husband and I built our home with Menards products using our Big card and usually the 6 months same as cash option.
Since the charges made by Citi Bank we have been charges interest on our bill the last two months. When I called last month and explained I was on the zero interest from Menards the representative acted like that was a non existent option, but he did take the interest charge of $8.90 off my bill. I told the representative that I would pay the entire balance which I did to keep from interest charges. I had decided I would not use my Menards Big card, but I did for a small purchase.
Oh and I set up my payments to be taken out automatically from my checking account and pay on time and pay the statement balance.
And the balance is due 5/19/2021 but there is another interest charge if $.31. And yes that is a small amount but my husband and I feel like we are being targeted by Citi bank with interest we dont feel we owe.
I guess we will reevaluate our shopping habits and check out other home improvement stores, since Citi bank insists on charging interest to our account.
We have already closed a Citi bank card we had with Bass Pro.
I hope someone in the Menards company would take this complaint seriously, but corporations sometimes just are too big to care about their loyal customers. Thirty years is a long time to have been a customer and it is sad that a credit card company is destroying the confidence we have had with Menards.
Thank you for your time.

First off, the menards card is thru Capital One, not Citi Bank. Secondly, the no interest for 6 months is on purchases over $300.
