barclays service is shit

  • after i got kicked out of college i worked for them and they compelled me to open an account stating it was company policy to pay employees via barclays current account. i filled in the form gave my previous acount details and they paid my wage into my hsbc account? before workin as a cashier i was waiting to start for over a month. the job advertised was for 12k probation pay + bonus and commission. the contract was for 11250 without notifying me of the change. they dissmissed me after a month because my previous employer didnt respond because it closed down, prior to me tellin them this this in my interview, cv and external referencing check.
    i have been banking with them nearly 2years since because as i needed a visa account. their serivice is shit, not giving me an overdraft when i have 3 d/d's a month and get paid 700+ a month into it as a college student for 10months straight.
    i went to upgrade it for a student accoutn before starting uni in aug 08 and they said my application got reffered! just f***ing upgrade it internally, no need for external credit checks u fool; look at my behaviour score. they didnt even tell me the responce i went in a month later and they told me. i went to see someone else about my accoutn as i was in dier need of a student overdraft. she gave a good service undersood my problem and didnt understand why i got declined. she said your behaviour score is good and there are no notes on here decling you from a student account. she did it there and then and gave me an overdraft.
    barclays are suppose to give students 10 free cinema tickets when they open an account; never got it; its been 3 months.
    they upgraded my online banking to pin entry never told me or sent my out a device. i access online banking all the time, know my pasword and banking code and that wont allow me to transfer money. telephone banking just require me to give a tele banking password to transfer money, no pin entry. cust service even blcoked my accoutn for one day because i told them them i dont have a tele bankin password just take me through security questions.
    they are f***ing shit. service is shit, employment is shit. bank is f***ed. i hope they go bust and shareprice falls to the floor making historical losses.
    do not bank with them; service is inconvieient and frustrating by many staff and internal systamatic proceedures are futile in many cases. barclays are a waste of space.
