Barclaycard Platinum Credit Card reviews (300)

If I could leave a score of zero I would. In fact -100 might be more accurate.

If I could give zero I would. Absolutely appalled by Barclaycard's customer service or lack thereof over the last three months. Not only is it impossible to actually get through to them (as you'll read in many reviews below), you send a secure message online where it clearly states they will respond in 24 hours and you either get a generic "we've forwarded this on" message or nothing for 4 days. Then when you do get a reply they haven't even done what you asked them to do. I phoned the number I was given by Barclays for their complaints line and guess what?! The complaints department is closed due to Covid 19!! What a surprise. They currently owe me £2,000 which is sat on my credit card (having received a refund through my travel provider eventually) and yet they seem incompetent or unwilling to refund that credit to my bank account - which you guessed it, is a Barclays account. If I was sat on £2,000 on their money you can bet your bottom dollar I'd be in all sorts of trouble. Absolute joke and will be leaving Barclaycard as soon as I get my money back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No Customer Service at all

It was bad before, but now it is non-existent. Just wasted 1hr30 minutes on hold before I gave up. The only reason I waited that long is because they also ignore their secure message service... supposed to reply in 24 hrs, I reminded them after 5 weeks and they ignored this as well... I am insulted by such obvious disregard for customers they claim to value so much! Reviewed on: 27th June 2020

Worst credit card in the world.

No customer service at all , spend hours on my phone trying to contact Barclays. Reviewed on: 27th June 2020

Worst company ever

Because of their technical issues and inability for me to contact them they left an erroneous late payment on my credit report. Spent weeks trying to contact them, went into branch, raised complaints and never heard anything. I can contact Halifax in under 5 mins. Got rejected for our mortgage today, estimated cost of £8k because of their incompetence. My complaint will be being escalated to the FCA. DO NOT USE THEM. Reviewed on: 26th June 2020

Excellent for using abroad

No charges on cash withdrawals or transactions overseas, highly recommended for those who work overseas regularly Reviewed on: 17th June 2020

Good card to have.

A good card to have, your flexible friend, covers you for all your purchases. One to count on Reviewed on: 10th June 2020

Excellent customer service and great credit card

This was my first ever credit card, they gave me a good limit with fantastic deal on interest as I had been a loyal Barclays customer for 10 years. Reviewed on: 3rd June 2020

Customer friendly credit card

I have had quite a few (probably too many) credit cards in my lifetime and Barclaycard has been the simplest, and customer friendly service I have experienced overall. Anything I needed to do with my card, whether that's to change my direct debit or organise a balance transfer etc, it has been very smooth process with no fuss. I've had no issues at all and I'm a very happy customer. Reviewed on: 29th April 2020

No complaints

I haven't had a bad experience with Barclacycard, but I haven't yet had any need to liaise with their customer services about anything. That is where you really find out what a company is like. The online banking works well and is user-friendly. Barclaycard also offer regular balance transfer deals to existing customers. No plans to move to a different provider any time soon. Reviewed on: 27th April 2020

Easy peasy

So simple to apply online. About 10mins later we were the proud owners of a Barclaycard. Reviewed on: 4th July 2019
