Barclays banking disruption continues, customers face payment issues into Sunday; key things to know

UK banking giant Barclays has continued to face service disruptions due to an IT glitch, affecting customers with payment issues, according to a report by PA Media. Barclays Says Will Ensure ‘No Customer is Left Out of Pocket’ In a statement, Barclays apologised for the “ongoing technical issues that are impacting our customers’ accounts” and said that it will ensure no customer is “left out of pocket”. ‘Homeless, No Food, No Money…’ Speaking to PA Media, 39-year-old civil servant Paola Mereu said her family had been left homeless after the payment for their new house failed due to the glitch. So we sold our house — we had the money from that — but we were unable to complete the other part of the sale so we are essentially homeless.” Frustrated customers also reached out to Barclays on social media, with one user on X, saying, “Due to you Barclays I’m left without money had a food shop due for delivery this morning that now will get cancelled, leave my four kids with no food it’s a joke as my money.”
