Don't let a brand leader take you for a ride

A little advice: don't take it lying down! I have had a Barclaycard for many years - indeed I signed up when Barclaycard was the default brand leader in credit cards, and the market was much smaller. I was a typical 'sleeping' customer - never incentivised to change. A couple of years back, they wrote to tell me (after lots of waffle) that my interest rate would be going up from 12% to 26%. After well over a decade of regular borrowing and payments, I explained that I thought this was daylight robbery, and we compromised on 18%. Financial services businesses can charge what they like, but it's our duty as customers to question it when it's just not good enough. Don't take it lying down! Reviewed on: 12th October 2014
