Barclaycard PPI - advice please

You dont make reasonable requests for information. You send a SAR and £10.
Your letter from them was a final response. The letter would have a had a leaflet in it explaining what the fincial ombudsan do and what your time was for escalating your complaint. You didn't. Your complaint is over.

That will just end up costing you money.

Your complaint has failed. Time to move on...

My complaint has not failed until I give up. Barclays behaved very badly; denying at one point that we’d even had an account, then claiming to ‘lose’ our bank details months after we had provided them for the second time. Then they have the cheek to acknowledge that we had an account but try to claim we are out of time. Shabby.


We will send off the tenner and see what, if anything, new they come up with. The Ombudsman has said that if Barclays do not provide evidence to support refusal of our claim they will go back to them again on our behalf.

Time will tell but we are not done yet.

You complaint HAS already failed.

Barclays has rejected your complaint. You were out of time to complain to the Ombudsman so they can't help no matter what you think they can do. Barclays have refised to open the compaint again and they are allowed to do that.

It is over.

It is not ‘over’ if the Ombudsman decides that Barclays have acted wrongly and agree to take matters up further with them. That decision has yet to be made.

Beware of turning this into a crusade. Just because you want someting to happen, doesn't mean it will.

Thank you, of course I am aware of that. I have to see what Barclays come back with, and the ombudsman’s response.

The only way this complaint succeeds is if the FOS decide that the timebar was applied incorrectly. Your first post indicated that it was past 6 months and Barclays have barred it. So, the FOS cannot overrule that unless there is a justifiable reason why it took you the whole of the period to raise the complaint with the FOS. The FOS rarely overrule on these. Only tends to incapacity (such as being in hospital most of the time) or death of a direct family member.

What you perceive to be Barclays behaviour will not be considered by the FOS. The minute the FOS see Barclays response and that it states that they will be enforcing the 6 month limit, the FOS will end it there unless you have been incapacitated.

No, it's failed whether you "give up" or not.

Continuing will be akin to knocking your head against a brick wall. You should instead heed the advice given here and move on from this.. I certainly wouldn't be spending any money on your "quest"
