Fuck again
Barclays are morons. They told me they’d cancelled my card, and then I check my balance online the next day and someone had taken out the very last of my money, right after the money my house mate had transferred to me for their rent had been cleared. I went back today and ranted for a bit. They finally cancelled my card. I double checked on the atm out the front and it ate my card. Good. So that makes £1130 they now owe me. Convert that to Australian dollars and gasp.
They never admit fault or apologise, they just say, “we’ll send you some forms they’ll arrive in 2-3 working days”, “we can’t check that from here, you’ll have to call this number and wait on hold for 30 minutes.”
Aaaargh.
What are you going to do in the meantime?
Do you have any money in your Oz bank account? …I know it’s a shitty shitty rate at the moment, but at least it’s better than nothing.
