Customer service is the worse I have ever experienced. They have off shored their customer service / dispute department and it is unfortunate I could not explain my dispute to anyone after days/ hours on the phone. They just kept reading to me verbatim the letter they sent me in reference to my dispute, repeating over and over the same thing. Asked to speak to supervisor, he was off shore also and could not help me, was told to fax a letter to the "office of the President" but that fax number just rings and rings, no connection. POOR POOR customer service

This used to be a great credit card but then apparently about a year ago(according to the service representative) they changed the way they charged interest. Now if you’re credit card isn’t 100% paid off every month then whenever you make a purchase they will instantly start charging you interest on your most purchase. Worst credit card ever. And was I notified of this change? No. I hadn’t used the card in almost a year. But when I called about this crazy amount of interest being charged the lady kept saying if you divide that number by one you get the interest you see there. As if dividing by one actually changed the number. By far worst experience ever. Oh and then to top it off if you don’t pay off the credit card at least 2 months in a row then you’ll always pay interest on every purchase as you make them. Total garbage.

barclaycard, never missed a payment sometimes payed double. Today I went to pay and found I was maxed on my card, this is because barclaycard decided to cut my credit limit byv40% of my balance. This has affected my credit score now. Barclaycard are total con artists and a company you should not deal with. I don't usually swear but they are totally dumb. I hope they rot in hell. The ceo snd directors are not fit to run toy car, they are of very low intelligence with no integrity also for info I have been with barclays for over 25

Worst credit car ever. While our Explanation of Benefit shows we owed nothing (and provided the EOB to Barclays Card), the dentist debits our credit card on file - WITHOUT OUR AUTHORIZATION. The insurance company confirms, that we owed nothing ! Barclays will NOT reverse the charge - AS WE CAN NOT PROVIDE A RECEIPT FOR THE UNAUTHORIZED DEBIT. !!!! Is that not rich! Someone debits your card without authorization, and Barclays takes THEIR SIDE. SO one thing is for sure - Barclays will not be on your side ! We are closing the account after 20 years (in the beginning it was an AMEX Card = never a problem - BARCLAYS SUCKS)

I Been A customer of Barclay for many years and I would have given them a 5 star review every day off the week but not now i wouldn't recommend them to anyone .. I asked for a credit increase 6 months ago and they pulled a credit on me which lowered my score and because I haven't used the card in a few months. They lowered my card limit from 13000 down to 5000 that's %&_%^^ of Them,. And I would not recommend them to anyone for a credit card worst company i've ever dealt with now. They want you to keep a high balance on your card so they can make a lot off your high percentage rate which you would never get paid off. You grandkids would be paying off the card If I could give a Black Star I would .

I aquired a Barclaycard back when they had a relationship with Apple. I used it to purchase a few iPhones and more than one laptop. Probably spent $5k over a few years. I credit is excellent and I really don't need to carry credit card balances. They lost their relationship with Apple so I hadn't used the card for a few years. They sent to me a letter stating that if I didn't use my card they would close my account and they did. "F" them! They say that closing credit accounts that you've had for some time can negatively effect your credit score but they don't seem to give a rat's ass. Will I ever do business with them again? No! Will I tell everyone I know? Yes.....

Don’t waste your time. I was approved in 2011-2012 received a $1500 credit limit. After annually requesting soft pull for credit card increase I received an additional $400 dollars after 4 years. Meanwhile other cards provided me with 25k plus limits. I spend roughly 5k a month and the $1900 limit did not provide even 50 percent of that which led to me barely using the card. They ended up canceling my card after never missing or ever being late on a single payment. Was able to collect 66$ and some change which was from rewards. But, imo seek elsewhere.

This company is a total scam... They allowed a breach, paid out the fraud and then told me it was my problem? Cancelled accounts will never use anything backed by this company.. You all should be very very afraid of this company.

I have been a loyal customer for over six years, but my recent experience with their customer service has been extremely disappointing. Without any prior notice or explanation, my account was suddenly closed. When I contacted customer service to resolve the issue, the situation only deteriorated. The representatives I spoke to were not only unhelpful but also rude. Communication was frustratingly difficult, with one agent hanging up on me after a 30-minute conversation. To make matters worse, another representative provided me with incorrect information. Overall, this has been the most frustrating and unacceptable customer service experience I've ever encountered

Closed the account for no explicable reason but then promised to reopen it but then application services insisted on a new card which I had no use for. Waste of time and money and credit.

I have had a Barclay Master card for about 6 years now and have never been late on a payemnt. For the last year, I have been fortunate enough to pay off my card charges (an average of$500-$800) each month, negating any interest charges. My FICO is 824. I just received a letter from Barclay stating that because I do not use my credit limit of around $20K, they are lowering it to $5K. Ridiculous and unacceptable. I am penalized (a lower limit could negatively impact my credit rating) for being responsible. I contacted them, and they want me to reapply to reinstate the higher limit. No. I think I will use my AMEX gold card with no preset spending limit!

They made an error that made my credit score go down 61 points in one day and won't let me talk to the department responsible. I had an 801 credit score until their mistake. Now I have to go through the credit bureau to fix their error. Don't trust them!

I have had this card for 10 years. Had a 10000.00 limit. Used occasionly. Kept it in case of emergencys. Well the other day they sent me a letter saying they dropped my limit down to 3000. I have never been late. I complained but they said i would have to ask them to increase my limit they couldn’t just do that. Not a good company as far as i am concerned. That is not how you treat long standing customers

I have had a credit card for years with a high limit. I have bills that draft monthly on the card. Now they just lowered my limit to 5k. I pay my balance and never been late. I also have a savings account with them that I closed out due to not trusting them anymore. I feel betrayed as a quality good customer.

We closed are account two years ago but they reopened it and tried to charge us the yearly fee for the credit card. I called their customer service and got someone named Trace on the line. Her accent was hard to understand but we told her what our problem was and she connected us with someone named Ron. Rod did not have a last name and he did not have a supervisors name so we were stuck with talking with him. He also had a thick accent and he was hard to understand. We finally got him to understand that we simply wanted to close this account like we had done two years ago. At this point he told us that they had no record of us closing this account which I know is a lie because I was with my wife when she called in and closed it. He tried to argue that we had not close it which is when I got involved because he was calling us a liar. After a heated discussion I got it through his thick skull that we wanted the account closed NOW. Then he tried to convince us to keep the card and we told him to close the "explitave" card NOW. He finally said it was clsoed but he wouldn't give us a conformation number, his last name or the name of his supervisor. With God as my witness I will never get a card from this company again.

Customer service is the worst I have ever seen for a company! One customer service person hung up on me! The second customer service person couldn't help me! What do I need to do to get a problem resolved????? You can "NOT" get anyone who can help you at Barclays! What a shame!!!!!!!

I was a customer of Barclays Credit Card for over a decade. Never had a problem until now. I had a $10k limit on my card, I made one purchase of just under $2,000 and before the charge even hit my monthly statement; I got hit with a letter than cut my total limit in half! I have had a credit card for over 30 years and never had this happen. This is a dirty business practice. It cut my credit score by 20 points and I had a credit score of 830. No late payments for years. This is intentionally trying to green up your books and it should be a completely illegal practice. Sadly, it is not as the bank can decide to raise or lower your limit whenever they feel like it. I am filing a complaint with my state's better business bureau, but I am not sure how far it will get me. I have heard many similar stories and this needs to be a class action lawsuit. I cut up the card and sent the shards back to them with a note saying you may get cut on this card like you cut up my credit score.
