Barclays Chat 🦅

Varies. Used to be very common.

[GRIXuk]

I can’t image it’s very common on iOS. Until recently side loading wasn’t easily available and all apps from the generic App Store are checked/approved by Apple.

It’s pretty quick to login.

Barclays fuel 5% debit card cashback also gave me a kickback on some stale croissants bought at the same time as diesel yesterday

I don’t think that I’ve ever had any cash back offers on my Barclaycard in all the years that I’ve had it. Just 0% balance transfer offers.

[RSheff]

You have to sign up for them in the app. You won’t get any otherwise.

[Hunk_of_Cheese]

Not with this offer, open to any personal debit card

@Hunk_of_Cheese

Ah, OK - probably why there’s nothing in the Barclaycard app about signing up for offers. The website says that credit card offers will be sent to you “periodically”. I get loads of the balance transfer ones but I never carry a balance on credit cards.

Does seem faster but flashes between a few screens with slightly different loaders so it’s not very smooth

I HATE when apps do this

Had my first truly frustrating app-fail with Barclays.

I have a cash savings account where I occasionally squirrel something away for a nephew. Wanted to transfer to my Barclays current account to then move it somewhere more exciting.

Something you’d expect to be simple.

SF001 technical error.

Chat clueless. Had to complete via online banking.

[Carlo1460]

Are you full Barclays?

[jo (Member)]

Is there a way to manually change my current account with Barclays? I can’t see the option in mobile banking.

@jo

my current account with Barclays? I can’t see the option in mobile banking.

Use the chat service who may also ask you to call the account services team

[Carlo1460]

Via the website you can go to apply a bank account and the option to upgrade or similar should be there.

Doesn’t it happen automatically after so long?

[Urpert]

This chat is bringing back fond memories of my Barclayplus account with its cash card and Our Price vouchers.

[Carlo1460]

Cries in Barclays Connect.

[richycran (Rich)]

Nope.

[GRIXuk]

I’ve switched out a few Barclays accounts and they always disappear completely from the app etc, but for some reason this one account from years ago appears on everything - if I view my direct debits etc it’s there, apply for something new it’s there.

Is anyone else seeing old switched out accounts when they view their direct debits for example?

[Carlo1460]

I have this for previously closed accounts too.
