Barclaycard ridiculously slow at updating Experian

Options
Has anybody else had this problem? My barclaycard has not updated on Experian or Equifax since July yet it has on creditkarma??

Barclaycard are blaming the CRA's and they are blaming Barclaycard.

Beginning to get sick of this now and the covid excuse is getting boring, its October and has not been updated since July. It is not good enough.

Anybody else having this problem?

    Yes. A lot of lenders are slow in updating the CRA’s.
    Is there a pressing reason why you need it updated?

    Yes. Because I want my credit history to be accurate and not out of date.

    Then you’ll need to wait. 
    To be fair they don’t have to report anything at all and could also choose to stop reporting at any time.

    He should write in and ask for a refund, shocking state of affairs.

    No. But I guess that sometimes some people just want their affairs to be in order.

    It can make a difference if you've just paid off a large credit card debt ahead of taking out a mortgage.
