It would be nice to have some cash balances to be able to transfer out.

I just transferred LARGE amount of cash out of investment account into a non Barclays bank acc.
Completed in under an hour all money received and credited.

I transferred a marketmaster account after the new fee regime was announced. It is a largely passive buy and hold portfolio (with Barclays about 20 years) which was about to attract significant new fees with no discernible benefit. The whole transfer process took 10 weeks. Two days before the transfer was complete an email from Barclays claimed, "We have contacted your new provider to arrange the transfer of your assets but have not yet had a response." Fortunately that was not the case. No doubt just a standard email to the many in the process of jumping ship.

eltox,

Same here re RDSB divi
I have already started the transfer to AJB, I wonder how long it will take BARC to deliver the shares to them!!

[eltox] 27/9/2017 09:32

From my account

RDSB Due 18th .. Not yet paid
RDSA Due 18th .. Not yet paid
RIO Due 21st.... Paid on 25th
SSE due 22nd .. Not yet paid
BP Due 22nd .... Not yet paid

I have another account with AJ Bell and they invariably credit the dividend on the due day. I've now sent in a request to transfer my Barclays account. That may take some time....

At least you can see your dividends, when I look at my ISA it says "no transactions". The cash value has changed in line with some of the dividends that should have been paid but I can't tell which ones.

The credit card debt timebomb: danger warning after we take out £15m a day on
high-interest plastic

£458m withdrawn on credit cards in August - highest monthly total since 2009

[fjgooner] 26/9/2017 20:33

Another day - the seventh - and yet another no show for the Shell dividend.

At which point does unexplained delay in paying you your divi transition from a(nother) "honest mistake" made by any one of the "great guys" working at Barclays, to blatant theft?


How much patience and understanding should a Barclays client be expected to show?

How much patience and understanding have Barclays shown to struggling clients who needed some 'extra time' ?.

taking out scrip divs the bank as only paid out in cash for the last 18 months 3.5p

[portside1] 26/9/2017 15:15

Close of business this coming Friday marks the end of Q3 and the completion of the first quarter of CEO's new Barclays. We shall know if the new Barclays has delivered the goods at the end of October - should it be just broken promises then it's time to split the bank, create value through mergers and appoint new management teamswho can deliver.

Like Mr Barnier, at the EU, keeps on saying to HMG, " the clock is ticking." That same clock is ticking down on the Board at Barclays deliver or go. No more hefty provisions, especially after 10 yrs - only earnings and dividend growth should be accepted by shareholders - no more can-kicking of legacy issues.

Posted off the forms to transfer out of BARC today, lets see how long it takes them to do it.
They sent me a long screed following my complaint to them which basically said nothing. Offered me £200 for my 'inconvenience'. I will take that in compensation for the blood pressure rise in dealing with them.
So between me and wife thats four investment accounts (with quite a wadge in them)and two premier bank accounts in process of being closed. You would think they would be bothered - which they are not!
