    Went into Barclays branch this morning - staff having terrible problems getting online to their own system, and couldn't print out proper receipts. Went home and could not log in online on my own computer.

    I see Halifax system is down, too.

I'm going to take myself off the electoral role like I should of done ages ago and move to the Caribean. I already brought my plane ticket, all be it a refundable 1.

    I went into a branch this morning, deposited a cheque and used the ATM with no problems. Didn't hear anyone say they were experiencing problems in the branch.

    I've just got in, after trying for 2 hours.
    Hope this isn't going to be a regular feature, I'm so used to HBOS online being reliable.
    Not just a sucker for sweeties..:o

    I deposited cash this morning without problems, and also made a credit card payment over the counter (in cash), again without problems. I can't even get to the login page on internet banking now though.

    You're not alone, Barclays is down too. I'm guessing it's an influx after the long break and it's crashed the system. I'll try again this evening

    I do it all because I'm scared.
