Yes I think you’re right. The slowest app refresh in history continues.
My (disappointingly blue) card arrived yesterday. Now waiting for a code to come in the post so I can get into the app again. (When I log in with my Barclaycard the current account doesn’t show up so I suspect my profiles haven’t merged.)
Took a few days for my card and Barclaycard to merge automatically.
Maybe even over a week.
I don’t think I have seen a major change on the Barclays app in years.
Lost access to Barclays Premier last week admittedly I never used it and just liked the card .. assuming it’s not as simple as how I upgraded in the first place and just requesting it again as they never did any checks the first time.. (I did enjoy the free Apple TV)
how did you lose access, had it been 1 year?
Barclays Premier card arrived today. I think I actually prefer the standard blue one in the new design. They even chucked in a new chequebook that I didn’t request but that’s not Premier-branded. I think I still have a full one and a half used one from years ago
I much prefer the black.
Now if only the black card wasn’t shiny. Mine arrived with lots of scratches as if it had already been used prior.
I’d much prefer it if it were a matte finish I think. Oh well, I’m guessing I’ll be back to blue in a years time anyway
Yeah
Have you been issued a new blue card or still using the black?
Where on earth do they send new Barclaycards from? Outer Mongolia? I applied for a new card and it’s taken 8 working days to get to me. Would be interested to know how long everyone else’s cards took to get to them, or whether it’s just the postal service that’s totally sh1te in my area.
I had a spot of light fraud on my Barclaycard reported on a Thursday morning, Apple Pay had updated by Saturday and a real card arrived maybe a week after that. I’m in rural Somerset so am lucky if the postie is spotted more than three times a week, might be a quicker turnaround in civilisation.
My card came reasonably quickly but been waiting 10 days for a pin and online activation code.
i got both the black & blue debit cards
The blue one at least is matte. The premier card is too shiny
Received about 17 pieces of paper from Barclays today, 2 weeks after opening the account.
It’s weird, because my experience of Barclaycard so far is that it’s one of the more modern credit cards.
How?
It works fine as does every other card, no spend notifications though, only apple wallet ones.
Easier than most to do basic self service stuff like manage/change the direct debit through the app, see offers and so on… nothing particularly amazing but the bar is low.
