I have lost so much, through contacts and money trying to use Barclays to pay over the internet,. Every time I made a purchase over £500 I have contact Barclays and informed them, and have been reassured that all was OK. Only for my card to blocked losing products and services, getting the card cancelled. while a replacement was not dispatched until l contacted the bank. I no longer use Barclays for Business.
