Well are you at that senior citizen state since they can probably see your personal info, but no never happened to me and I setup autopay to avoid having to talk with a banker unless something is screwed up More on reddit.com

I had the Barclays Uber card. I've literally never taken an Uber, but the card originally offered 4% cash back on restaurants, which was useful to me. I don't recall my credit limit, but I do recall generally hating the card. I enable alerts on all of my credit cards to help guard against fraud (and also to act as a receipt). With nearly all of my credit cards, I get an email within minutes, sometimes seconds, of making a charge. My Uber card would take literally days to alert me--and the email didn't even name the merchant, so it was really hard to use. I would get an email on Wednesday night telling me about a mystery $14 purchase on Monday, forcing me to try to remember what I bought on Monday. The charges were always legitimate ("Oh, right, lunch at that Thai restaurant was around $14!"), but as both a security alert and as a receipt the emails were largely useless. They eventually revamped the card so it was no longer useful to me. I cashed out the rewards, put it away, and they eventually cancelled it for non-use. I really was not impressed by Barclays as an issuer. I'd be reluctant to try another of their cards. More on reddit.com

Nope terrible for at least 3 years. I have some anecdotal personal experience with them from just over 4 years ago. I had 780+ FICO at that time (im about 820 now) and I applied for one of their travel cards at the time. Its still the only time in my life I have been declined for a card. They sent a letter at the time with a very vague description of unable to verify information in application. I sent them a pay stub and a utility bill. A few weeks later another letter with the same. I called the help line for reconsideration and post going through several people when I finally got through they simply said "You will not be extended credit at this time". I still remember asking why and they simply restated they were declining credit. Background: At that time I would have had maybe 4 open cards and a total credit line of just under 100K. I had and still have a mid 6 figures job (~250K then, ~350-400K now). I would have had a modest amount of student loan debt (~120K-150K) back then but consolidated by nelnet (its gone now) I have never defaulted on any loan or payment in my entire life and I would have had roughly a 10 year credit history. Car was paid off. I had a stable job. I had no mortgage. It made zero sense. Chase by contrast had extended 60K on my CSP at that time and I would have had back then a citi double cash (, a discover card, and one other chase card. I still dont understand it to this day. I would not have had lots of new cards since my CSP is from 2014 and back then I had not opened others. Instead I ended up later applying for a WF Propel. I now avoid barclays. They have nothing compelling for me anymore. More on reddit.com
