I also got a letter to say "switch completed" today to put with all the other letters Barclays sent (despite selecting paperless from day 1). Thank you to @FFHillbilly @Largs who found the workaround for the Blue Rewards error.

After all the issues I had with the app and being told I had to go in a branch to sort it out Barclays offered £50 due to me complaining

Anyone else had an issue when submitting your security video thing and the message “Connection lost. There was a network error. Please check your connection.”? 

Ive tried multiple times and everytime i just get this message. Ive tried updating the app and turning my phone off and on but still the same message. 

Anyone know how to solve this issue?

Wife received her switch reward yesterday.

She joined Blue Rewards via the website as she got the error message on the app but everything else was done via the app.

I see on the Barclays site it can take up to 5 working days for cashback to appear and that it's paid either when you get £10 or on the 5th of the next month when less than £10 is earned.

Has anyone who has switched, joined blue, activated the offer and spent anything less than £200 on the card seen it on the app yet as a pending reward or just people have spent £200 on NI savings and thus already been paid £10?

I spent around £55 yesterday on the debit card at 2 shops (both payments showing as pending) and will do the weekly shop next weekend for around £100 so just need to find the balance but my cashback rewards is £0 even for pending. I am impatient of course but I would like to know if it'll show as pending eventually and if so, how long?

I used my Debit card on Sunday and today it shows in the pending.  I bought trainers last Tuesday and using the card, the shop offered pay in 3 with PayPal and althought it debited as a Debit card purchase, this has not tracked.

Opened a new account last week, via the app and amazingly it all went very smoothly!
Set up Blue Rewards and have started a switch which was confirmed as 27th November.
Access in & out of the app was fine so very pleased.
All good so far…….
However, now (from yesterday evening and again today) every time I try to log into the app I get Error code 00002.
A message comes up telling me to try again (done that) and if no joy, to contact them via the Direct Call button in the app but there isn’t one - all I have is the entry page where I enter the 5 digit code.
Any suggestions please?

Try deleting the app and reinstalling it then signing in again? My Barclaycard app did this after I used the Barclays app to open a cerrent account. Reinstalling the app fixed it.
