  • DifferentEndz Valdis Bičevskis (@DifferentEndz) reported from Ealing, England

    @BarclaysUK why did you suspend transfers with binance but not other exchanges if you are “protecting our funds”? Binance got insurance on funds, if anything, they are the safest exchange to buy crypto, yet you crack down on it. Hope everyone does the right move and switch banks!

  • LauraVCook1980 Laura Cook (@LauraVCook1980) reported from Hatfield, England

    @BarclaysUK - worst customer service in the world. I now risk buyers withdrawing from house sale because waiting on you to do one simple task. Fed up of waiting on hold 40 plus minutes each time I call to chase you. A task you should’ve done 20 years ago!

  • adam_cannon Adam Cannon (@adam_cannon) reported from Barnet, England

    Eventually answered after 1hr 17 mins on hold. Then received a further call at 2020’ rang once and u left a message. Immediately tried to return the call as requested but the office was closed!!! This is impossible @BarclaysUK

  • michaelsparling Mike Sparling (@michaelsparling) reported from Hatfield, England

    It’s completely bonkers that you’re increasing the Blue ‘Rewards’ fee to £5 which is the same amount as the reward! I mean what’s the point? Couldn’t make it up. It’s more of a slap in the face. Been your customer for 22 years!! @Barclays @BarclaysUK @BarclaysUKHelp

  • GaelCombettes Gaël (He/His) (@GaelCombettes) reported from London Colney, England

    @BarclaysUK Hi @Barclays, I am a Premier Account client and have tried during last 3 months to increase my credit card limit. Yes, 3 MONTHS !!! The app is not working. I call and they asked me to do it on the app. What a poor service.

  • annejam80747133 anne james (@annejam80747133) reported from London, England

    As a @BarclaysUK customer, I call on Barclays to stop bankrolling the destruction of our planet. Phase out fossil fuel funding now!

  • BastieVelo Le Bête de Londres. (@BastieVelo) reported from London Colney, England

    @BarclaysUK hey I can’t access my statements. Something to do with changes sort codes. It’s a business account. I need them for my VAT return. Help!

  • adam_cannon Adam Cannon (@adam_cannon) reported from Barnet, England

    And now 50 mins. I don’t get how @BarclaysUK call this a customer service team or service when no one answers, you are left on hold interminably and there is no time expectation management. At the beginning of the call, the message said the wait was 5/10 mins …

  • DLAPgroup DLAP Group (@DLAPgroup) reported from London Colney, England

    Abysmal service from @BarclaysUK @BarclaysUKHelp @Barclays The Business banking service is terrible. Unable to get any help from anyone.

  • fnafilms zee zom ✌️✊🏾 (@fnafilms) reported

    @MariaVCgalizia @BarclaysUK Santander were good with us. But we haven't had much in the way of problems. The branch I use is in the Metrocentre.

  • KarlaMa31154414 Karla Martin (@KarlaMa31154414) reported

  • GPedliham G. Pedliham 2 💙💗🤍💗💙🌈 (@GPedliham) reported

    @BarclaysUK I have the app on my ipad. It seems I can not simply mirror it onto my phone or have the app on my phone and log into the same account. I can foresee this becoming an issue.

  • NettieS02694974 Nettie Stevens (@NettieS02694974) reported

    @BarclaysUK Are Barclays execs bent on making it near impossible to bank with you? Just had an email re additional security checks when I shop. I am closing all my accounts with you, your service and lack of branches are appalling.

  • AjaySan79392015 Ajay Sandhu (@AjaySan79392015) reported

    @BarclaysUK your operation in Walsall branch is close to pathetic. Only one paying in machine and the counter closes at 2pm. Why? You’re meant to be open till 4:30pm for all banking services, I shouldn’t have to wait 20 minutes to deposit some cash. Your customer service is poor.

  • sarahc1986 Sarah Charnock (@sarahc1986) reported

    @BarclaysUK I had a basic account which I closed down sometime ago however I’ve been notified there’s an outstanding overdraft with you but I’ve never had one. I have no account details how can I discuss this?

  • SallySavory Sally Savory (@SallySavory) reported

    Great message from @BarclaysUK on their Home Insurance customer service line, reassuring policyholders that they’ll be covered if they temporarily house refugees.
