    Wow @Barclays @BarclaysUK how **** can you be when your complaints line has a wait time of 2 hours!

    @BarclaysUK since when do you have you not cash over the counter after 2 pm. There is nothing in my local branch that says so. Very poor service.

    @BarclaysUK @BarclaysBizChat i am sorry to say that I do not feel like a valued customer. My wait on the phone is already 42 mins. This is the second attempt this morning.

    @BarclaysUK My card was locked, I changed my phone number and my pin sentry was unusable. I need to transfer my money to another card. I sent essential files to the leicester bank already. However, no response until now. Could you please help me deal this emergency.

    @HMRCgovuk if you moved your banking from @BarclaysUK to one which isn’t investing in the destruction of our life support systems it would send a clear message that you’re serious about protecting our kids from the existential threat of climate breakdown. #breakupwithbarclays

  • RobbieMTurner Robbie Turner (He/Him) (@RobbieMTurner) reported

    @BarclaysUK Someone has applied for a mortgage on a house using my address as the contact details. I can't find out how to report this to you. Can you please help?

  • marksfee Mark Fee (@marksfee) reported

    I asked my local @BarclaysUK about an account for my 15 yr old. They said I have to open an account too, no problem, but they also wanted me to shift ALL my banking to them. Nope. They refused because "they want to encourage new customers" ?????

  • DMO_GB DMO_GB (@DMO_GB) reported

    @GeorgeMonbiot @VodafoneUK Heartless service is so common now. The way @BarclaysUK treated my mum (who was on chemo herself) when my dad died was evil. They even gave her a name to complain and send registered mail to - who they later admitted didn’t exist! They too refused my power of attorney doc.

    @magnate37 @BarclaysUK Hi, the problem is resolved. I had to go into the bank with proof of ID

  • shr3y_t Shrey (@shr3y_t) reported

    @sumner_rowan @BarclaysUK I called again today and got the same - still not able to receive foreign cheques. It’s quite incredible that the most basic service you expect from an account is unavailable. I’ve logged a complaint with the financial ombudsman

  • direction4ward Direction Forward (@direction4ward) reported

    Terrible contradictory customer service from @BarclaysUK @BarclaysUKHelp. Tried to sign up for a current account to add to existing consumer services. Told to register on the app as a new customer, despite having online banking (made this clear). Now locked out of both profiles.

  • OliviaaHughes OliviaJadeHughes (@OliviaaHughes) reported

    @BarclaysUK been on hold for over 50 minutes now. Ridiculous. I’m a potential new customer enquiring about a recent application. I’ve waited 3 weeks so far with no comms, and can’t get through to anyone. Called yesterday, waited 35 minutes for someone to answer and cut me off.

  • ChiccaSilveri Francesca Silveri (@ChiccaSilveri) reported

    @BarclaysUK I'm finding it very difficult to speak to someone for help. Chat was useless. I can't ring you as I live abroad nor can I visit a branch in person. No email address or secure messaging system on your website. Can you help?
