    @nick213 @BarclaysUK That’s so awful, Nick. I hope this gets sorted soon.

  • DaviesReadman Ann Davies (@DaviesReadman) reported

    @BarclaysUK shocked to discover today that if your are a regular customer it is no longer possible to call the bank if you have the app. Is this true? Chat is not chat - it is messaging service from poorly trained overseas centre. #leaving

  • oakcott Steve (@oakcott) reported

    @AliRom49 @BarclaysUK Knowing @BarclaysUK they'll probably prevent the problem you have had reoccurring by closing your branch!

  • Samkhan2728 Samir Khan (@Samkhan2728) reported

    @BarclaysUK - Got an alert of 2 transactions made on my card. I have been trying to reach your fraud team (chat and phone) for close to an hour now, but no luck. Pathetic service.

  • mattmultiplied Matt Wheeler | UI/UX & Development (@mattmultiplied) reported from Leeds, England

    Just spent an hour on hold with @BarclaysUK customer service for someone to hang up on me 🙃

  • Miniruggers Mini-Ruggers Limited (@Miniruggers) reported

    @BarclaysUK you are an absolute shambles. Piss poor customer service that even some of your own agents are disappointed by. You couldn’t even arrange a piss up in a brewery.

  • Steffelsx Stephanie Collins (@Steffelsx) reported

    No support from @BarclaysUK for mortgage prisoners without an EWS1 form. We need more support for these circumstances which are outside our control. @PeabodyLDN not doing enough to acquire the form. What are leaseholders expected to do?

  • 66SamThompson Sam Thompson (Samsformers) (@66SamThompson) reported

    @BarclaysUK please can you help me with paying in a cheque on your app. The photo feature is terrible, I can’t possible take a clearer straighter image and the app distorts it. Any suggestions?

  • DavidHomerOx David Homer (@DavidHomerOx) reported

    @BarclaysUK And you try and chat to someone - the branches no nothing or are closed down, you don't answer the phone and the chat app has the world's worst chat bot that sends you in circles.

    @welburnoldfart @BarclaysUK Yo ! - Went there twice last month. One of the most useless helplines in the UK - no bloody help at all. Two subsequent visits to nearest branch were not at all helpful - very negative attitudes. Unfortunately "customer service" in the UK is largely a time-wasting joke. 🤬
