Barclays Loans

Well, according to the website Barclays are 'Business as Usual'.



Plenty of information and encouragement to apply for a personal loan.

Have just had a brief chat with one of their loan advisors to be told that
"They are not approving any unsecured loans at present"

Hardly business as usual!
