Review of the Barclaycard, Initial Credit Card:

Best card ever

Great starter card for building credit and you can change limits after a while, I would definitely recommend. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2016

Very helpfull

Quick and easy to apply. My card came in about 2 weeks after apply and I'm useing it since then each time I need to do shoppings. Reviewed on: 30th June 2017

Easily applied

Easy to apply and get response in seconds. Reviewed on: 23rd June 2017

Not recommended

I feel that Barclays (barclaycard) exploit the vulnerable - they constantly advertise the initial credit card to people that have no or poor credit history. The advert itself is awful "they're barking" and it's not a company I would trust. Their sole interest is profit... ok fair enough they're a bank afterall, but I genuinely feel they don't care about getting people into debt. To put it simply I would never take out a barclaycard purely because I don't trust them as a company Reviewed on: 22nd June 2017

Great support

Not only is it a good credit card with great benefits but the staff are amazing and supportive at all times Reviewed on: 19th June 2017

Helpful When Finances are Tight

Had my credit card for some years, and unfortunately, personal circumstances changed for the worse which left me unable to pay my card each month. After explaining my situation, Barclays were very helpful in organising a repayment plan. Reviewed on: 11th June 2017
