Treat customers unfairly

Despicable, borderline illegal, treatment of customers. As a loyal customer of over 20 years I asked to switch to a more suitable card and was told I wasn't allowed and had to close my account for 6 months and reapply. Using their Platinum card meant high interest and no benefits. I wanted to switch to their Platinum Cash Plus (cashback and better travel fees) but was refused on the grounds of being an existing customer. On complaining, I was told they were going to close the complaint immediately as 'there was no way they would change their policy'. Took 15 minutes on a call to finally get my account closed after 3 people asked me to repeat why I was leaving. Website is a nightmare to use. Recent changes to the login process are unbearable and whenever I try to pay in full it tells me that would put my account in credit. I have to guess how much I can pay off without triggering the error message. Moved to First Direct who treat their customers fairly and with respect. Won't be using Barclaycard ever again. They treat their customers with contempt, as if we don't have any choice as consumers. It's not the 80s anymore Barclaycard. Reviewed on: 30th March 2019

RIP off

I got my Barclay card in 2016 I was told it was a min payment of £5 when I applied for the card , throughout the years every month I would receive a late payment charge even though I pay it on time , when I called to find out why , I was told I was provided with false information , and have been over charged £300 , after a hour on the phone going through every single statement over 3 years I was fully reimbursed, absalutly shocking Reviewed on: 7th March 2019
