One Apple Card user went viral for his epic rant: 'It lacks basic functionality.'

These unsatisfied customers aren’t giving the Apple Card much credit — and one writer in the popular discussion forum Reddit Inc. outlined what he describes as some of the most salient problems with the card in a social-media post that has gone viral.

David’s comments come three months after Apple’s hotly anticipated laser-etched, titanium card back by Goldman Sachs GS, +0.37% hit the market. Cardholders and analysts have responded with mixed reviews.

I wanted to actually hold it, because it is cool — physically,” he tells MarketWatch. “But it lacks the basic functionality that almost every other credit card has, he claims.
