  @Barclays I’ve banked with @BarclaysUK since I was 15 — 43 years without ever being overdrawn or causing a problem. I recently received a notice that my account will be closed because I now currently live overseas. I still hold a British passport, pay UK bills, and plan to return home regularly , and intend to retire in the UK. I completely understand compliance rules, but this feels harsh after four decades of loyalty. Has anyone else experienced this? Is this now common practice for British expats? Feels like loyalty no longer counts for much in modern banking.

  @BarclaysUK dear Barclays, firstly I want to say I’m grateful for my mortgage I have with you. As my mortgage wasn’t straightforward at all and you approved it so thank you so I want to thank you for that. However I want to make a complaint about your member of staffs rather odd attitude with me over the phone today when I phoned customer services Firstly my card was frozen by yourselves totally out the blue for NO reason I just made a eBay transaction of £100 and I often shop at eBay. Now the customer service woman said Barclays had frozen my card because you detected fraud on my card. I confirmed with her there was no fraud all purchases were mine. I said to her that Barclays should notify their customers when cancel / freeze cards. She said yes we have texted you. I said no you haven’t but she kept disagreeing with me saying they had. THEY HADNT neither had they sent me any email notifying me of you freezing my card I was totally unaware of you doing this and why Now only through phoning up cust services did I find out you had frozen my card due to you suspecting fraud Now I said to the lady that’s fine you being secure for your customers. But I said it’s not good when customers are not notified. She was not sympathetic to my complaint and she had a abrupt manner and tone I wasn’t keen on her attitude Secondly if I was a mentally disabled person or elderly person and didn’t think to phone you or didn’t know how to get your phone number And I was out of my house no internet to get your number off Google Then I would have been stranded without use of my card and no way of knowing why or what to do That’s why I’m making the complaint so doesn’t happen to anyone else Your staff member had no sympathy with my valid complaint she had cold attitude I just wanted to make you aware of this

  Had a bank account with @Barclays since I was 16. Today they rejected a payment to someone because they were satisfied. Guess what I’m a grown man. I won’t be held hostage by @BarclaysUK closing my account down!!!!!!

  @Barclays what’s Going on with your app chat service, it’s frustrating. What’s the point if one cannot use it when needed.@BarclaysUKHelp @BarclaysUK

  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.

  @StuartMaggs @BarclaysUK Since we still had a working bank card, we moved all the money out - it was only a few hundred quid - in cash and opened an account with a different bank. For all I know the Santander bank is still sending stuff to the wrong address.
