Conservative lads they are indeed.

 

The British, they do a lot of talking but never close.

When I closed my account the girl on the phone chuckled after asking me why.  Like she understood.  They are friendly people in my experience, but their algorithms are too strict.

Re: Add me to the list -- Barclay CLD

They did it to me a couple of times.  So, that is the one and only card I never pay off monthly.  I don't really have much on it so the interest isn't a whole lot. Why do I do it that way?  Just because it's Barclay.  They could offer me an amazing card with a $50k CL and I would say no thanks.

Barclays or not, I would happily take 50k from them. Especially if it comes with 0% whatever promos!😃

Basically anyone that has the desire for a Barclays card should make that 1 app a dream app and dont plan to app anything else for at least a year. Tuff to do and utterly ridiculous to try and force that on those who are trying to better their credit but still want a BC, CHASE they are notSmiley Wink.


This is excellent advice! And I agree - Barclay is paranoid!

 

At the end of the day, it is they that grant the credit so they can take it away. If it were me, I would call the backdoor and speak with them.
