After a bit more searching I have found this is on their website. Ask Barclays a question

Has anyone come across this article before? Personal Finance: Barclays' instant cheque clearing puts rivals to | Independent, The (London) | Find Articles at BNET.com I phoned telephone banking and they argued that it was up to the discretion of the bank manager.

Thank you very much for that. I will keep you posted! Applestrudel

I have 2 accounts with Barclays - a business account and a personal account. Each account is held at a different Branch. I sent off a preliminary letter to each Branch, claiming approx. £1200 from my business account and £3500 from my private account. Barclays have replied with an offer - (but they have only put the business account details on the top of the letter) - the offer is for £2075. Should I be cheeky and accept this amount for the business account but still pursue the £3500 for the private account, or should I accept this as part payment etc. etc.

Thanks very much!

Hi! - new to this, but can someone help please. Looking back through our statements, Barclays have taken £12 a month for an Account Fee. Can I try and claim this back?
