Review of the Barclaycard, Platinum Credit Card:

Handy for life and for living

A great card to have in your pocket for everyday living and those extra unexpected things that you can't avoid Reviewed on: 28th May 2016

Barclaycard Platinum can't be used with Google Pay?

As the title suggests, I'm more than a little disappointed that this credit card can only be used with Apple Pay and not Google Pay. And then to add to my woes I discover that the Contactless Mobile facility of the Barclaycard app will cease to function at the end of June '23! Wish I'd researched better and opted for a different card! Reviewed on: 31st May 2023

Great card

Creditlicious

DONT EVEN THINK ABOUT GETTING BARCLAYCARD

DO NOT TAKE OUT A CREDIT CARD WITH BARCLAYS. I TOOK OUT A CREDIT AS I WAS OFFERED 0% INTEREST RATE AS LONG AS I MAKE THE MINIMUM PAYMENT EACH MONTH. THE FIRST FEW MONTHS WAS FINE. I WAS NOT CHARGED ANYTHING, UNTILL ... THE CHAGED THE T&C WHEN I WAS -£3000. THEY BEGAN CHARGING ME £100 A MONTH INTEREST, AND THEY WAITED FOR MY CREDIT CARD TO BE MAXED OUT AS THEY CAN "UPDATE INTEREST CHARGE WITHOUT NOTICE" IM NOW RACING TO PAY THIS OFF AS £100 INTEREST A MONTH IS CRAZYYY. I'VE TRIED TO CONTACT CUSTOMER SERVICR BUT NOBODY GETS BACK TO YOU. PLEASE LEARN FROM MY EXPERIENCE DO NOT BE TEMPTED BY THE 0% OFFER AS THEY CAN CHANGE THIS WITHOUT NOTICE, BARCLAYS BANK PRAY ON VUNERABLE PEOPLE. BE AWARE! Reviewed on: 27th May 2023

Easy and Simple

Really good product and easy application. Nice card as well. But the integration with other services such as GPay or APay could be better and would make it more usable daily. Reviewed on: 11th April 2023
