At the end of 2002, Capital One and the United States Postal Service proposed a service agreement that was negotiated for massive discounts on shipping services. The three-year agreement produced was extended in 2006. However, in June 2008, Capital One filed a complaint with USPS regarding the terms of the next agreement, citing the NSA's terms of competitor Capital One, Bank of America. Capital One then withdraws its complaint to the Postal Regulatory Commission after completion with USPS.
In January 2005, the Onyx Acceptance Corporation was acquired by Capital One.
Capital One acquired Hibernia National Bank based in New Orleans, Louisiana, for $4.9 billion in cash and shares in 2005 and acquired Melville, the New York-based North Fork Bank for $13.2 billion in cash and shares in 2006, which reduced its dependence on credit cards from 90% to 55%.
In 2007, Capital One acquired NetSpend, a prepaid debit card marketer, valued at $700 million.
During the 2007 subprime mortgage financial crisis, Capital One closed its mortgage platform, GreenPoint Mortgage, partly because of investor pressure.
In 2008, Capital One received an investment of US $3.56 billion from the United States Department of Finance as a result of the Problem Assets Assistance Program. On June 17, 2009, Capital One completed the repurchase of shares issued by the company to the US Treasury by paying a total of US $3.67 billion, generating profits of more than $100 million for the US Treasury.
The US Securities and Exchange Commission criticized Capital One's behavior during the crisis, claiming that they underestimated the loss of car loans during the 2007-2008 financial crisis. In 2013, Capital One paid $3.5 million to settle this case, but was not required to directly handle allegations of errors.
In February 2009, Capital One acquired Chevy Chase Bank for $520 million in cash and shares.
In June 2011, ING Group announced the sale of the ING Direct US $9 billion division to Capital One in cash and shares. On August 26, 2011, the Federal Reserve Board of Governors announced that they would hold a public hearing about the acquisition of Capital One from ING Direct, and extend it to October 12, 2011, a period of public comments scheduled to end on August 22. This step was carried out amid increasing systemic risk oversight, or the performance of "Too Big to Fail," under the Community Reinvestment Act, and awaiting legal challenges. A coalition of national civil and consumer rights groups, led by the National Community Reinvestment Coalition, joined the Rep. Barney Frank to challenge the direct agreement of the agreement. The groups argued that the acquisition was a test for the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, where systemically risky companies must show public benefits that exceed new risks before they are allowed to grow. Kansas City Federal Reserve Bank chief Thomas M. Hoenig was also skeptical about the agreement. In February 2012, the acquisition was approved by regulators and Capital One completed the acquisition of ING Direct. Capital One received permission to enter ING into its business in October 2012, and changed its name to ING Direct to Capital One 360 in November 2012.
In August 2011, Capital One reached an agreement with HSBC to acquire U.S. credit card operations. Capital One pays US $31.3 billion in return for loans of US $28.2 billion and other assets of US $600 million. This acquisition was completed in May 2012.
On February 26, 2012, together with several other banks, Capital One announced support for the Isis Cellphone Wallet payment system. However, in September 2013, Capital One dropped support for that effort.
In 2012, Capital One closed 41 branch locations.
In 2015, Capital One closed several branch locations so that 174 branches operate in the D.C metro area.
