Simple request denied, call disconnected, no follow up

I asked for written confirmation of when my next direct debit was due. Now, you'd think that this would be a reasonable request and a very simple one to carry out. But no. It turned into a 30 minute waste of time!!! The first person I spoke to said she "wasn't allowed" to provide this basic customer service. I then asked to speak to a manager (which I hate doing but I was getting nowhere with this person) initially she told me "no managers are available". Then she put me on on hold to go and speak to the (apparently unavailable) manager. The manager she spoke to refused to come to the phone. So she transferred me to someone else who said that sending me the written confirmation I had requested was " not a process we would follow" and also refused to help me. He said the only way to receive this simple piece of information was to lodge a complaint with Customer Relations!!! He then transferred me at which point the call was terminated by the bank. There has been NO FOLLOW UP whatsoever!!! Clearly nobody there cares about their customers and are completely incapable of problem solving. I've worked in multiple customer service roles and I would never DREAM of treating a customer like this. Absolutely APPALLING!!! Read more Read less

The app often freezes and is very clunky to use , it’s not user friendly at all. I often had issues with making a payment towards the card as transactions would freeze so, I had to call up customer services instead. The account does its job of a credit card fairly well and the fees are not horrendous but it’s just user friendly. Read more Read less

Easy to check balances and statements, make payments. They have some good cash back offers. It is not very easy to change the type to card you have once offers have expired, I have had a credit card with them for a while and they don’t really offer much until you get a new card with someone else.

    Great offer, smooth approval process

    Great offer for interest-free balance transfer for 32 months. Smooth application process. Good communication on approval. While it's early days in my journey with Barclaycard, so far so good!

I’ve been with BARCLAYS for quite awhile and while everybody else has increased my credit and supplied the other better products this bank does nothing I pay every month. I pay everything off. I have no huge debts and I don’t understand it but thank God there’s lots of other banks out there so you don’t have to deal with this one. Even though I’m still a customer. Read more Read less

I have been using Barclays since 3years but I can't use my debit card, it will always show some error even I enter right PIN number. Tried to order new card and pin so many times but same problem occur every time. Recently I applied for credit card I received both card and pin. After 1day I got letter that my credit card has been suspended I can't use it anymore. I tried to contact customer service. They told to wait for 6more months to apply for new credit card. How can I trust them again. I am not going to use this bank anymore and will never suggest others to use. Read more Read less
