    why you need to pay Barclaycard if you don't have to ! Stick the money in a savings account and then wthdraw it when you come to pay your bill.

    However that said, if you want to make a payment why not phone them up and ask how you make a payment over the internet and then do it that way. Then they will just have to have your money!!!

  • you cant set up an internet account without your first statement, typical eh
  • all you need is the bank details - have a look at http://www.barclaycard.co.uk/Customer_Service/Help/faqs.html#payments for details - and use your card number as a reference.

    Alternatively register your card at https://www.barclaycard.com and pay that way.

  • well it gets worse :rolleyes:

    finally got my statement and set up my online account and direct debt, so i go to make a payment on my barclay card online payment account and it will only let me pay £100 :mad: then it declines my debit card.

    so i phone the bank, they didnt even try to take payment :rolleyes: so i phone barclay card and pay only £100 :j :confused: apparently its a security thing.

    so i now have to go to the bank to pay the outstanding balance :mad:

    ah well at least some as been payed it isnt due till april 25 anyway :p
