Oh please! This doesn't seem to have lot of relevance to the thread title! .......Blue Rewards more like the odd rant.
I'm sure now is the time to become completely self sufficient grow your food, barter with cowrie shells... whatever.
Luckily my Blue Rewards are doing fine thank you
Being polite and pleasant doesn't cost anything!

@xlnc99 did you look into the co-op current account with Everyday Rewards? To get £5.50/month in rewards with no fee, and get rid of the Barclays account that seems to be causing you so much grief?
PS. I'm currently getting £32 per month (£36 in rewards minus the £4 blue rewards fee) from Barclays. I've been getting this amount for 18 months now, and will get it for another 6 months or so. Just out of curiosity - does that seem a "fair" amount to you? Barclays to pay you for the privilege of having you as a customer?

It's a shame that Barclays don't feel the same about you as the Co-Op Bank. It would have spared us your deluded ranting on this thread.xlnc99 said:

I said you WANT to be charged interest on, not a 0% offer.xlnc99 said:
