• Oppose. The article should be at Providian, per most common name in English rule. --Dhartung | Talk 09:51, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
• Oppose. Support moving the article to Providian. A night of sleep helps--Cliffb 17:27, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

Customer Agents

Although I can't say I disagree, might the following be just a tad biased-sounding?

Providian managed to become an all time leader in dumbest customer agents known to mankind.

settlement payout

The article says it was $100 million. The documentary "Maxed Out" claims it was $200 million? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bmathew (talk • contribs) 07:09, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

Who actually owns Providian now? WaMu or Chase?

Article says they are owned by Washington Mutual. Most of Washington Mutual is now part of Chase because of a bank failure and is no longer named Washington Mutual. Is Providian part of what is left of Washington Mutual or part of Chase? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.109.159.54 (talk) 23:51, 28 May 2010 (UTC)
