Providian Credit Card Payment Online

Before getting bought out by Washington Mutual in 2005, Providian was one of the top issuers of credit cards in the U.S. and known best for providing high interest credit to some of the lowest income groups. Then in 2008, Washington Mutual was absorbed by JPMorgan Chase in a $1.9 billion transaction. While the transitions may have been a minor nuisance, Providian credit card holder’s were notified in writing of the account transfers.

Balances remaining on Providian credit cards are still the responsibility of the original holder and should be paid directly to JPMorgan Chase rather than Washington Mutual or even Providian. WaMu card holders can continue using their credit cards until the expiration date when Chase will provide a new card bearing their logo. Customers can also continue to call the toll free number on the back of the card to reach a representative should they encounter a problem or need assistance. Mailed payments can be made to the same address on the statement.
