Buna

Multumit de toată experiența cu banca Reviewed on: 3rd March 2022

Brilliant card

Amazing benefits with it to. I've been a customer for years!! Reviewed on: 9th May 2016

Generally good but some issues using it abroad

I have had this card for several years but I have had a few issues with it. Barclaycard say that you don't need to inform them if you are going away yet I always do as I choose not to take my mobile or computer with me when I travel abroad so I can't be contacted. One example of a problem was that after a trip to Iceland I came home to find several messages left on my landline to say someone had attempted to use my card fraudulently. I cancelled the card, paid for a credit check and worried a lot about what may happened but it eventually turned out that it was when my partner and I had had several unsuccessful attempts at using a 'pay at the pump' petrol station in Iceland. Yet Barclaycard hadn't previously been able to give us any details of the so called 'fraud' which caused us so much worry. I ended up taking out another credit card with a different company just to use abroad that allows you to put your travel details into their website. Other than that they are a good card provider. I can't comment on their interest rates as these days I just use it as a safe way to pay online and I pay the bill immediately. Reviewed on: 6th May 2016

Great customer service and flexibility

I needed to contact them to change the method of paying my bill. The customer service advisor was very helpful and explained the process fully as well as offering options on how to set this up. We chose the best method based o my circumstances and all details were followed up with an email explaining what had happend. Very impressed. Reviewed on: 6th May 2016

balance transfer

I transferred a balance from one credit card to another and I chose Barclaycard and the length of the interest free period was just what I wanted, The whole thing was done on-line and complete within a few days and communication was frequent and relevant and since I did this I have been very impressed with the services offered by Barclaycard. I can't speak more highly of them from my experience. Reviewed on: 6th May 2016

great balance transfer offer

I had a great 0% balance transfer offer, however I did have difficulty when contacting the customer service team as it is based in a call centre out of the uk. Reviewed on: 26th April 2016

Barclaycard seem very aware of fraudulent spending.

Barclaycard give good cashback. Also they are very aware of unusual spending.We get a taped message which sounds like a scam at first but isn't. Usually it has been because of different locations or a large amount but it can be easily verified. They did detect fraudulent use once and the card was blocked, which was done without problem.
