hi
gone onto a dm doing it myself.Barclaycard have been a pain they would not accept payment etc . finally got them to accept 57 per month on a £3,500 balance they will not stop interest but reduced it .
I have had a letter to confirm this but I opened my bill last month to find
£40 interest
£20 late payment It was paid 2 weeks before the agreed date
£20 for going over my limit because they charged me so much
almost £82.00 in charges
I have written to them telling them I am on an agreed dmp and asked for these unfair charges to be refunded but they have not
Do they have to ??
I agreed and kept to my part of the deal ,they have not
I spoke to someone on the phone and basically she said once the charges were on there was nothing they could do. which I think is rubbish .

Mt husband and I did a diy DMP for 4 years and Barclaycard were the only company who would not freeze interest. In the end we went for an IVA and have not had a phone call or letter since. Can I suggest that whenever you ring them you take a name and write it down. Keep records of all correspondence and phone calls.
Good luck.We finally did it! Debt free 28/6/10 :T :beer: :T :beer:0 -
Barclaycard are reducing their charges to £12 each, but putting the interest up. Not a great help but £36 is better than £80.Barclaycard 3800
Nothing to do but hibernate till spring
