How Long Will it Takes to Hear Back from Barclaycard
If their customer service team is unable to resolve your issue immediately, it will be referred to their Customer Relations Department. If it cannot be resolved within four business days of receipt, they will send you a notification letter that includes a case reference number and contact information.
If your complaint is about payment services, the company is required to send you a final response within 15 working days unless there are extenuating circumstances that delay the resolution of the problem. In that case, they will send a final response within 35 days.
If the complaint is unrelated to payment services, you will hear back from them within four weeks with an update. Their goal is to resolve your issue within eight weeks, at which time they will send you a written update.
What Happens if You Do Not Get a Satisfactory Response From Barclaycard
If you're unsatisfied with the way is handling your case, you have the following options to escalate the problem outside the company.
- Use an ADR (Alternative Dispute Resolution) Scheme. ADR is an excellent option for people who want to resolve their disputes without going through the stress and expense of litigation. Mediation, settlement conferences (also known as negotiations), neutral evaluation panels, or arbitration are all tools that you can use to solve your problems quickly with little risk involved on either side.
- File a complaint with an ombudsman. If your problem is not resolved, you can raise a complaint with a Financial Ombudsman Service. This free, independent service helps you resolve your complaints between consumers and businesses that provide financial services.
- File a lawsuit in small claims court. If you have exhausted all of the above options without a resolution to your problem, you can file a lawsuit against Barclaycard. The maximum amount you can claim in England and Wales is £10,000, £5,000 in Scotland, and £3,000 in Northern Ireland.
