Barclay's One Pulse card No £25

I received the Barclay's One Pulse card today but there is nothing in the lierature about Martin's tip of a free £25 spend after the first purchase.
Have I misunderstood something here.
I gave my daughter The Times vouchers for PizzaExpress. The four of them went for a meal last Sunday. Guess what, they had no pasta and they had no beer. I know it's just one shop (centre of Manchester) but how bad is that??

We also applied for one pulse card and can't seem to find out what happens with the £25 credit. Rang Barclays and they didn't seem to know anything about itIf marriage means you fell in love, does divorce mean you climbed back out?:rotfl:0

I too got this card for my OH, spent £40 on fuel on it, had the statement in, no mention of the £25.00 though. I'll look at the article again. These are t & C's on the £25.00, You have to wait up to 28 days after the first statement.

Anyone know if existing Barclaycard holders (not one pulse)are eligible for the £25?
I went to apply online but noticed that existing card holders have to telephone them to apply.

They've credited me 3 times now, then took it back, and re-credited me the £25 back.
They will probably post up my details outside their offices next.Fred Bloggs0 -
I fulfilled all the requirements to get the £25 from Barclaycard but they still have not paid me the £25 promised, they also ignore my emails asking for details of who to complain to. The really stupid thing about Barclays is that their attitude will make me cancel my acccount as soon as they cough up my money. How stupid to offer people an incentive to attract customers and then mess them about - do they think that will make them stay with ?Barclaycard? No way!!!!0

When I checked yesterday (before paying the bill) the balance had gone down to £0.36 becaue the £25 had been applied within the 28 days.
All was fine for me...0 -
I got my card on the very first day it was released to the public.
