Hard to get contact special on line but over the phone tools longer. From when I was decreasing my limit it’s never gives me more that I was decided back to previous one. Now decided reduced my limit for my better future. That means bank knows better how is my future? Without asking me. Reviewed on: 18th January 2024

Worst Customer Service ever

After excepting a credit card offer from Barclays through my AARP membership, I immediately gave them information for two balance, transfers. The balance transfers with 0% interest were the sole reason I excepted the credit card offer to begin with. After waiting a few weeks, one of my statement still was not reflecting that the transfer has been made.. When I contacted Barclays, they told me that it failed to process, but they could not tell me why. When I asked how to resolve it, they said they could not help me as it had been over 45 days and I was required to do the transfer in that time period. I spoke with a customer care center supervisor named Kevin, who assured me that he could see that I had provided all information necessary for the balance transfer well ahead of the 45 days. However, since there was a problem on their end (one, they never made any attempt to resolve) he was not able to resubmit it. He acknowledged that I provided all the information to them for the balance transfer well within the required timeline. However, despite it, not being my fault, they could not resubmit and would not honor the original offer. He also assured me that I would be wasting my time to try and escalate it further as he was the final authority, and there was no one else that it could be escalated to. Reviewed on: 21st June 2023

Excellent fuss-free credit card

Great credit card, easy to use app and internet banking site and excellent customer service- they send a reminder to pay the bill, and another on the day if I have forgot to pay ggmeaning that I avoid late payment charges. Reviewed on: 1st June 2023
