Barclaycard Credit Card Cashback

I had an email from Barclays saying you no longer had to wait until you earn £5 cashback from the rewards partner website.

I have tried claiming mine but it says I don't have enough funds even though an email I have states this should no longer be an issue.

Has anyone else had the email and has anyone else claimed leas than £5?

    I claimed less than £5 (£4.55) from mine on the 28th without any issue.

    Yes, pretty much every day.
    I have contacted Barclays and just awaiting a response but was wondering if anyone else has had the same issue.
