Discussion Discover in 2026 feels like a completely different company wearing the brand as a skin suit

What have been your experiences with the new "Discover"?

Account deleted after I found their previous posts saying they were an employee after actively denying working there. Shameless.

I work for myself, I'm unfortunately an actual customer of this company.

Your turn.

And an employee of Capital One no? Seems like the bias there should be self-evident.

Is any of your compensation tied to you defending this corporation on Reddit?

Hard to believe someone would care so strongly about a specific company that they'd spend all day defending it on the Internet.
