What should I do if Capital One is down for me?

Check the card and the app separately. Card payments usually run on rails that stay up while the app itself is unreachable, and the reverse also happens. Avoid retrying a transfer that appeared to fail. Duplicate submissions during an incident are the most common way one payment becomes two. Try the website rather than the app. Mobile clients are updated more often and a broken release affects only the app. Wait before assuming a missing deposit is lost. Direct deposit and transfer settlement run on batch schedules that an outage delays rather than cancels.

Is Capital One down for everyone or just you?

Our automated checks are reaching Capital One normally right now, and it answered our last one in 42ms. That makes any trouble you are hitting more likely to be local to your connection, account or network than a full outage, which usually means you can fix it from your end.
