In a statement emailed to customers on Thursday night, Capital One representatives said the banking company began experiencing disruptions on Wednesday due to a technical issue with one of their service providers.

A social media post from Capital One went on to say that the issues with a third-party vendor were also impacting small businesses and commercial bank accounts.

Any users who still need assistance are advised to call the number on the back of their debit card or visit a Capital One Branch or Café.
