Reply To: Barclays Premier: Two days to open?

[tusker]

I don’t wish to depress you, but when I opened an Avios+ account a couple of years ago to take advantage of the 100k Avios bonus on offer at the time, and whilst already a Barclaycard customer, it took 3 trips to my now not so local Barclays branch (having to book and appointment each time!) before it was finally opened. Even the person assisting me who could see my application on her laptop, wasn’t really sure what was going on, and had to ring up colleagues elsewhere in the organisation. Not sure ‘organisation’ is a suitable word to use!
