Barclays Gives Me Fear...

Just got a text from my old housemates saying that Barclays Fraud Investigations have left a message on their answer phone for me. Now, I haven't used my Barclaycard for nearly three years now, I've just been paying it off on a debt repayment scheme and never ever looking at the bills.

So, I try to phone them and of course the office is shut until tomorow morning.

But, they do sometimes phone for happy reasons, don't they? Like secret prize draws? Don't they? Please? Anyone?

Dont worry damini. My brother in law used to work for the loan department of Barclays in Chester before he joined the RAF. He would always come home with some story about a cock-up that barclays computer system had done.


Anyway to check your account online at all?

I'm sure it'll be fine, Damini. Maybe there've been some attempts made to use your credit card number. Maybe they're worried that you haven't used the card in three years.

Whatever the reason... yer okay. Speak to them tomorrow morning and it'll all go away. I promise.

methinks not *pat**pat*

stop worrying about it, probably just checking up that your not just using your card to avoid taxes or something. Could be perfectly reasonable as Summo explained

They rang me up the other day and offered me free life insurance for 60 days, then went on in quite vivid detail what kind of accidents i could get in that would qualify for a payout. I promptly laughed at the woman and hung up.

Don't worry, so long as you haven't done anything illegal, you should be fine.

Er.....

You haven't done anything illegal, right?

Well, mayb... no. No, you haven't won a car. I can't lie to you. You'll probably go to jail for something you've never done. You'll want to know why but nobody will tell you. Your family will stand by you. At first. But by the time the whole's things past they'll be so worn down they too, will believe you're guilty. If I were you (not that I would ever commit the heinous crimes you clearly have) if I were you I'd enjoy tonight. It's the last time you'll breath the sweet air of freedom.

My cousin works at Eccleshall prison so if you go there I will tell her to sneak you some tabs in(I know you gave up but you will need them to barter for toilet roll)and me mate should be going to prison soon, he's male but you never know they might not have room for you in a ladies prison, anyway if you are in with him I will tell him to be nice to you.

Heh, thanks for the support. I promise, should I go to prison, I will get "Barrysworld Owns" tattoed on my arse, through the cunning use of a maths compass and a biro (Hey, I haven't forgotten my Bognah School roots!).


I *did* write back to the wife of the ex-president of some little African country, and we had this sweet little swindle going on. You see, when her husband died, they had MILLIONS of pounds hidden in accounts, and they needed me to help process the money. But now I think Barclays have cottoned onto my heinous crimes! Forgive me Mrs Sako Sako!

After having both a Lloyds and Barclays account for over 10 years, compared to my Halifax and HSBC accounts (especially HSBC) I can, with authority, say that Lloyds and Barclays are FUCKING SHIT

Having said that, Barclaycard aren't too bad

Heh, just phoned them... Its bloody EBAY! Cos I registered yesterday they hammer your card seven times in a row to get $1 out of the account, then give it back, just to make sure the card is working.

Word of advice; you would be wise not to sell your freshly smuggled endangered species on eBay, someone might get suspicious ;)
