Switching from Barclays to First Direct - will I still keep my Barclaycard?

Hi there,

So I'm thinking of switching my long time main bank account from Barclays to First Direct... the problem I see is that I have a Barclaycard CC... will they cancel it or something if I switch? I don't really know what happens in these cases...

Thanks!

    Hi

    You will be quite safe to switch - switching current accounts will have zero effect on your barclaycard. In fact the barclaycard and branch based products (such as current accounts/overdrafts) are run as completely separate entities.
