Barclays... possibly the worst bank in the world?! no definately!!

• barclays are crap. i wouldn't piss on them if they were on fire. i have had nothing but problems with them for the last 8 months of being with them
  constantly locking me out of online banking, forcing me to change my password constantly and go through security each time... stupid thing is when it makes u create a new password, it doesn't ask you to then use pin sentry to access your account for that attempt which is not secure at all! anyone could get hold of my card, access my details from that and change my details online then access my account. the pin sentry device/system is the biggest load of bollocks to have beeb invented since, erm, well, the cap- cleaner (never heard of it? well check it out and have a laugh at this pointless invention! www.cap-cleaner.com)
  they take money out without authorisation, charge u when they have no reason to, agree over the phone/telephone banking (in india ffs) to action something on your account as 'an error has been made/goodwill gesture as a way of apology' yet 3 days later nothing has happened, only to speak to the uk call centre who say that they will not actiopn anything and they take no liability for errors (even though they are liable and their indian callcentre has just accepted liability on the phone, which they record apparently... when you ask them to check the call and they do, they say its an error and they still don't pay you back your money!)
  why the hell does anyone bank with them? my own mother advised me against using them as she used them for several years until 2 years ago, when she closed her account because of all the crap she had with them, , 'useless w****rs as she so delicately put it... they say your mothers always right but do we listen? i went with barclays because they seemed to have good offers on their account they offered, but i am being charged £3 a month for this account/use of it... charged for using this shitty account where they take my money illegally then refuse to give it back even though they have already admitted they are in the wrong? what a load of pants!
  i have banked with natwest for many years and have kept that account and will be sticking with them. they may not offer me fantastic overdrafts or huge rewards for being a customer, but i'd rather know where i stand with them from an honest perspective than be with a bank that think i am there for them to just take the piss out of.
  ta taaa, Barclays wank! sorry i meant bank
