A good bank but its a shame about the credit card restrictions

4
I have been a loyal customer of Barclays for over 5 years (I am only 20) and was interested in getting a credit card with a small credit allowance to take with me when I travel the world, but unfortunately was denied as I do not work for over 10 hours per week. I would still rate the bank as good over all. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

I’ve banked with Barclays for over 12 years now. I am autistic and find managing money hard. I have been conned on line a few times and staff at Barclays have been so helpful and patient with me not only have they got my money back but also stopped companies from doing it again. Brilliant bank Reviewed on: 7th December 2018
