Quickest way to pay Barclaycard

I've forgotten about paying, due date is Tomorrow, 21st Jan, Monday.

Would it be best to go into Barclays and pay cash in over the counter, I already have a payment scheduled from my Lloydstsb account online but that leaves 21st Jan.

Looks like they may change the interest rate from 0%, due to late payment, or don't they always do this?

Thanks.

    If you call them - they may take payment over the telephone by debit card. I think that would be quickest and best.

    Otherwise, I think Barclays/Barclaycard take 3 days to credit your account even if you pay cash in at a Barclays Branch.

    If they don't receive payment by the due date.. well most T&C say that any special promotions (i.e. 0%) end immediately.

    Perhaps it would be sensible to set up a direct debit for future payments?

    I think if you also pay via Barclaycard online it takes it it's paid the same day ...

    Thanks for your suggestions, on sunday 20th I created a log-in to my account at www.Barclaycard.co.uk and paid by debit card.

    Checked the account yesterday but payment not credited, logged in today 22nd and payment shown as received yesterday 21st Jan, so just made it.
