  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

  @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.

  @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!

  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 …

  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

  @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!

  @STOP_ISRAEL 🇵🇸 (@TedTippCooper) reported 3 minutes ago

  @BarclaysUK I think your Orca ad is terrible! It’s psychologically putting pressure on those living at home to go out and get a mortgage because there’s something wrong with living at home! What a dreadful message to put out! 😡#Familylove

  Tim Lewis @Stoneham Press (@StonehamPress) reported 5 minutes ago

  @BarclaysUK - There are many things that are good about your online service but the way it seems to forget the people I’ve recently paid is extremely annoying.

  Simon Richardson (@SimonRi80242022) reported 7 minutes ago

  @Dpd_hub_uk - @BarclaysUK Please do not use DPD for the delivery of any Tech Insurance kit. (I will be cancelling all the Barclays Techpack insurance due to the service from DPD) They basically don't ever deliver anything and then just lie and state it could not be delivered.

  Zoe Harrison (@zcherrybaby) reported 9 minutes ago

  @BarclaysUK disappointed that you have removed my overdraft after being a customer for over 30 years, I very rarely use it, I know you sent me a letter but I don’t think your actions are justified in reducing it to £0

  Steve (@Wakey1234) reported 12 minutes ago

  @BarclaysUK I can't deal with your level of incompetence this morning. You are the most disjointed unhelpful short sighted useless so called Bank I've ever seen in my life. I hope you are shut down. Pathetic organisation.

  @BarclaysUK your service and support are absolutely diabolical - unable to use apple pay for over 6 weeks and no-one seems to know what they are doing. We'll be closing the account after 45 Years. No one cares!!

  @BarclaysUK - Hi Team I need some help with a mortgage I had with Woolwich before you bought them out. I live abroad - so I would really appreciate some help & support via Internet/email/phone calls. Hopefully you'll find the time to reply & I can get an answer to a question.

  @Barclays @BarclaysUK "We are working to improve our telephone banking systems" - Barclays Telephone banking automated voice. I never see it improve. It only ever gets worse. This has been the case for the past 25 years.

  Hey @BarclaysUK your chat service in app absolutely stinks as does most of your app. Little option to input anything anywhere it’s literally just non applicable options to select or call - something I struggle with.

  Hey @BarclaysUK @BarclaysUKHelp how long do “Pending Transactions” normally take to appear on the Apple Pay Wallet transactions page?! New customer so just checking I’ve got everything set up correctly. Thanks. James 💙
