    I had a pop up in the app earlier this evening saying something about it. Haven't noticed any issues myself though

    If you look at the tales of starving babies and heatless homes on down detector, I'd say some people are certainly having issues. Coming up to 24 hours and still no incoming benefits payments. I know some people will say the payments are not really due till Monday, but when you live hand to mouth and you're used to receiving it on Saturday I guess it could cause real problems.
    A lot of people didn't get their wages yesterday either.
    I came into this world with nothing and I've got most of it left.

    Looks like another expensive error by Barclays that will cost them dearly in compensation.
    My £10K transfer from Gatehouse still hasn't happened.

    I experienced issues with Barclays, I got paid fine yesterday, but i had issues transferring money, either it wouldn't go through or it would but would't show in the transaction list. The issue seemed to be resolved around 1:30 am, as that’s when I received notifications about my payments.

    I still can't access online banking, get error code 1101 though the website suggests it's just payments that are intermittently working.

    Make £2024 in 2024...

    Tried transferring from savings account to current account and does not work. Tried viewing transactions on current account and savings again error messages.  However my Barclaycards accounts I can view details but not pay a balance off.

    Piecing together the various sources, it looks like the issues started late morning yesterday, so payments and transfers done before that went through, after that everything is stuck. Some people can use their debit cards, others cannot. Direct Debits seem to be queued so will come out when everything works again, transfers are also queued so the same applies.

    The issue will largely be with people who were due to be paid by their employer but could not be due to the outage, which means that it can impact people who do not bank with Barclays. Payroll could not process the transaction and will not be back in until Monday to process the payment so will have to wait, depending on how they run the payroll it might take until Tuesday or in a worst case Wednesday to hit employees bank accounts, that also depends on Barclays having fixed everything by Monday. Those who have payments bounce will be able to charge the fees for those back to their employer or Barclays, though where possible it would be best to transfer money out of savings to avoid that issue in the first place.
