Capital One forcing me to “prove” I opened their emails
4 by CapOneCustomer | 1 comments on Hacker News.
I have a Capital One credit card. I have my account configured so that I receive email notices for various activities (bill due, card charged, unusual transactions, etc.). Recently, I received an email (legit) from Capital One that reads in part: ------------------------------------ Open emails regularly to continue receiving notifications. Recently, we updated the Paperless Terms & Conditions for your account. We've modified the Terms to make it clear that you'll need to open a Capital One email once every 12 months to continue receiving email notifications like statement ready alerts. ------------------------------------ From a tech perspective, I'm perfectly aware of what Capital One means by "open" - "load a tracking beacon". Since I don't (and won't) I assume I won't be receiving any email notices 13 months from now. Personally, I find this requirement from Capital One to be appalling. I'm curious if anyone else has received a notice like this (do other banks do this?) and what your opinion is.
