Unable to get human help

When a renewed card failed to arrive in the post I did as instructed and called the number given in their email to me. This was hopeless. The voice response system wouldn't recognise anything I said. Neither would it work when keying numbers into my telephone. It insisted that I was entering invalid codes - which I was not as I could see the keys I had pressed displayed on my phone screen. The online chat was no better. I was unable to talk with an actual human being until my sixth attempt. It turned out that their systems required numbers from the new, replacement card - the one I was trying to tell them I had not received. The logic of this defeated me - and them apparently Reviewed on: 16th April 2026

Don’t bother use someone else’s credit card abroad

We got a Clarity credit card to use abroad as there are no transaction fees on foreign purchases. You know why? Because the fraud department puts a block on the card if you try to use it abroad, pretending that ‘fraudulent activity has been detected’ In that you’ve attempted to buy something. It worked fine for a day and a half. Then the next three transactions were stopped. I managed to buy a coffee this morning but it wouldn’t let me buy my lunch! You try the (un)help(ful) 24/7 messaging service and they don’t answer. They did the next day to tell me to ring a UK number. I’m in the US, for God’s sake, and they want me to phone, at vast expense, then hang on listening to rubbish music until they can deign to answer me… and we all know that they’ll be ‘experiencing higher call volumes than normal’ don’t we? All that to tell them my date of birth, postcode and the last three transactions on the account!! And then they might consider letting me use the thing for a day or so before blocking it again. They’re hopeless. Get a Nationwide or Coop card instead, there’s never been any problem with them. There are, I presume, other cards that have a zero fee foreign transaction thingie as well. DON’T GET A HALIFAX CLARITY CARD! Reviewed on: 8th March 2025
