Post office, automated supermarket checkouts and other banks were all suggested last time OP sounded off about this last year....

Make sure they don't use the horizon system!

The PO don't offer a choice of system. They will be using whatever they currently use. 

But, even with all its flaws, I don't think there's any evidence that post office customers were affected by horizon.

I can confirm the PO still use Horizon. Presumably the problems with it have been fixed given the uproar? In any case, I've paid cash into my bank account several times at the PO with no issues. The money shows up in my account instantly.

Hello all

I have an account with Barclays for over 30 years . In 2019 I sold my house, unfortunately the  next property fell through and I became of no fixed abode. I lost my debit card in the meantime and needed a new one sent out. I told Barclays I was in between addresses and they told me they could send it to a care of C/O address so I had it sent to a friend's house . His address Was put on and has remained on my account ever since .With what's happened to the country since then I have found it impossible to find suitable accommodation and remain NFA .With my situation not changing for so long will barclays class me as homeless and close my account or present over problems? If so, will you give me a chance to get my money transferred out to my son first or will you just lock my account as soon as you become aware of my situation? Wondered if anyone would know anything about what will happen please. Thank you for reading

So what is your accommodation now?  
Are you in different places from month to month?
Is you son in the UK?

OP has started their own thread, which is probably a better idea than adding to this one on an unrelated topic....
