run around with barclay pc

i currently have the barclay rewards and want to pc to sallie mae. i have called and very politely asked twice now and was very politely told no! i messaged barclay on facebook about pcing and they responded that i would have to apply for the sallie mae to which i responded thats disappointing as capitol one did a pc with absolutely no hassle..what gives should i just call their retention department? i do know the sallie mae requires better scores but they are going to lose a customer over a simple pc that has 5% over 2% on groceries.

You should not expect one company to do something just becuase another one does.

I like how you are putting words in my mouth. I didn't say they shouldn't nor did i say i believe one way or the other. I was simply pointing out that just because company A does something doesn't mean company B should do it. Nothing to do with that action being for or against the customer. You already stated you did your part by contacting multiple sources trying to get it done without success, if they are not right for you then by all means find another company that treats you better.
