Person friendly

5
I personally find barclaycard the most transparent, and easiest to use service. The mobile app is brilliant, allowing you to pay any amount you want at any time. I personally find that other providers do not offer this, without difficulty anyway. The interest rates are easy to understand and well explained, and I get great offers from barclaycard for balance transfers. Reviewed on: 9th April 2017

Took out a Barclaycard Platinum last week. Had a current account with Barclays for years. The local branch service was very helpful and were able to clarify my options and their benefits. Found it a smooth and stress-free experience Reviewed on: 5th February 2017

Did exactly what they said they would!!

Balance transfer notification by post and email, offering simple 0% balance transfer. Clear, concise offer, made in plain easy to understand English. I made one phone call, was not made to wait or put on hold, and was spoken to politely and respectfully. Operative was knowledgeable and able to complete my request within 2 minutes. I received written confirmation within 48 hours. In times of 'your call is important to us' and then we are put on hold for an age, only to be eventually answered by an operative who has neither the skills or knowledge to help, Barclaycard bowled me over with their honest, helpful process. Thank you Barclaycard, for doing exactly what you said you would. Reviewed on: 4th February 2017

Brilliant Credit Card

I recently got a credit card with Barclays (I had one from them years ago) as it had 36 months interest free with £20 cash back and no balance transfer fee. They were very helpful on twitter before I applied for the card, as I was worried being a previous customer I wouldn't be entitled to the offer, but I was! The Barclaycard app is also very easy to use and they have good balance transfer/cash advance/purchase offers for being a customer. Reviewed on: 3rd February 2017
