I can only speak from my own experience. I believe that it is a scam.
First they will ask you to send monies (COT) on a promise that your funds will be in your account in 24 hours. They will then ask you to send them the CRN from Western Union where they cash in on your money within a few hours.
Then they will email you and tell you that the IMF will need to be paid and then they will tell that a Charity will need some of your funds too prior to sending you your so-called funds, and then they will tell you that your funds are in your country and another fee will need to be paid.
After paying this they will then tell you that a different bank in another country has your fund and further fees will need to be paid. And so on until you have no money left to send but they will still try their luck with you until you no longer respond to their emails.
Western Union states "Do not send money overseas to someone you do not know".
You can try and google the person's name or even try looking at sites called

Unwilling to provide pre-closure letter
Dear Sir/Madam;
I am a personal loan customer of Barclays bank in India.
I am personally working for a MNC, which is willing to help me pay off the personal loan disbursed to by Barclays Bank at 18% per-annum. Which itself is very high. The tenure is 7 years. I have paid the interest for almost 2 years now. There is a marginal decrease in the amount.
Now that I am being helped by another organization for closure of this loan at a very low rate of interest I requested Barclays Phone banking executives to mail me the outstanding letter. They clearly denied me to provide any correspondences. Then I had sent a couple of E-mails to one of their senior executives in India, there has been no replies. I had send couple of e-mails to their customer issue cell in UK, still no reply.
Barclays hardly has few offices in India, it is difficult to trace one. Even if you do the officials ask you to contact through the phone banking executives, who continue to give the same answers.
This rate of interest is really affecting my personal life. I sincerely want to pay back the amount to Barclays, but can someone tell me how?. I have now been contacting Barclays for last 2 months for a silly letter or email which will state what is my outstanding as of this month.
The banks in India give you this statement on hand anytime you contact them. Everymonth a statement is mailed to your address. Barclays does not do any of these.
Please help. I feel this was the biggest mistake of my life, their phone executives are really rude on the phone.
Regards,
Chidambaram.

Slaimmed into paperless billing / poor customer service
Barclays Bank slaimmed me into its paperless billing program and when I got a $79.99 bogus charge on my account that had a zero balance credit card it when went out over 90 days with late fees and jack up interist charges they said I owed them $210.00 They Slammed me into there paperless billing which I never signed up for and so when I didn't get a hard copy statement of my acct they didn't get paid... I only noticed it as they reported me as late pay to my credit report and I didn't owe then anything. I tried serveral time to resolve any issue though it CSR reps and they will lie to you saying they will get things resolve your problems and they will drop you like a hot rock. The CSR are not interisted in helping its customers and they will just add to your problems with Barclays Bank. I reported them the the BBB and got my acct resolved when I got a call from Eizabeth Chistopher with Juniper Bank at [protected]. They also jacked up my interist rates so I will be closing my account with them as they all ready cost me over 50 points of my credit rating score and I'm sure that will go down again when I close that accountbut WHO CAN AFFORD TO KEEP DOING BUSINESS Barclays bank any longer. They are a bunch of ripp offs

Closure of account
After getting extremely annoyed with incompetent Barclays telephone banking support staff in India re the unauthorised charges for a cash withdrawal, I decided to go into my local branch in Clacton-on-Sea, I explained to the nice chap at the reception desk what the problem was, excessive charges and how I'd wasted an hour on the phone to idiots in India who weren't able to help at all.
He was very supportive, tapping away on his computer, closing the account for me and taking all my details, including chequebooks, cards, PIN sentry and taking the account information to transfer the money into etc. I left the Clacton-on-sea Barclays bank feeling satisfied that you have to sort things out in person.
I was totally wrong to trust them. Two weeks later, nothing, no money transferred. Regretfully I pick up the phone and call them, the usual [censored] from the indian call centre, and suprisingly, the account is still active, which proves yet again a bank hasn't followed through on the instructions I gave them. I've had similar problems in the past with counter staff not bothering to process a change of address TWICE - so nothing suprises me know about their levels of incompetance.
To make matters worse, the support staff member says she can't see the "closing account" team's information on the account, so she can't tell wether its been closed or not without calling them, what kind of a dumb IT CRM system does Barclays use if they can't even look up the "status" of the account. So I'm put on hold while she tries to call the other department - she comes back to me saying nobody is picking up her call.
She's going to call me back... hmmm lets see its 14:40 when I finished the call... lets see what happens.
So yet again the bank gets to keep my cash for yet more time, and of course they'll send me a cheque, and again they keep it for even longer while that gets processed.
Its about time a new bank came along and introduced proper customer service and a decent customer orientated approach and kicked this lot into the 21st Century - they seem to think they can just get away with incompetance.
Its bad enough being overcharged for the basics, like sending out statements if you have an inactive business account, but the real sting in the tail is them not telling me over the counter that there would be a 85p per £100 cash withdrawal fee. Ridiculous - Banks really take the p*ss - some new banks need to come in and shake all this up and give customers proper service instead of masses of buraucracy and hidden costs to fund their own poor business practices.
To make matters worse, I've just been told that yet again they did not process my change of address! They did this 2 years ago. Utterly ridiculous.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
Customer service
L.L. Bean has a guarantee that "if you are unhappy with anything at any time" they will make it right.
Barclays Bank called my home as many as 15 times over a week period claiming that I had not paid a monthly credit card bill that I always kept paid in full. I had mailed the check on the 17th of the month and SURPRISE it was found on the 23rd. My local bank advised against stopping payment and reissuing another bank money order to replace a "lost" one for a few more days because they thought Barclays were a bit impatient. They were right.
Now, L.L. Bean refuses to allow free shipping by paying any other method than using the Barclays card, including paying by cash.
When did we stop recognizing cash as our nation's primary tender?
This Maine native is not happy with L.L.Bean and wonders why after MBNA and at least one other credit card company had no issues, now all of a sudden Barclays is being so harrassing in their dealings with customers. By the way, after Barclays "found" the check, there was no apology whatsoever.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
Wow, what a joke of a bank. Barclays Bank's customer service department is by far THE worst I have encountered. I am surprised Frontier Airlines has not moved on to a different bank to administer the frequent flier credit card offer. The customer service at the bank is the worst I have ever experienced.
If I did not love Frontier Airlines and want the mileage credit I would have dumped Barclays Bank long ago.
Seriously, I do not understand how a company (Barcays) can stay in business with the poor customer service, lack of follow through, incompetent employees, not well-trained employees on their own products (e. g. stating they don't offer a "Pay Pass" credit card through Frontier Airlines, when they do!), weak supervisors, not calling back within 24 hours as they state a manager will do and managers not even aware of what the problem is.
This goes back to mid-May when I was sent a new credit card because I was "upgraded" to a better card. Two months later and nearly 30 phone calls and I don't have resolution and continue to get incompetent customer service employees who give me incorrect information and do not seem to care to fix the situation. Stay clear of getting one of these cards if you can help it. (I read the negative post by a person who "was roped" into one there at the Denver Airport.)
I am so disappointed in this product, Barclays Bank, any Barclays cards, especially the Frontier Airlines Barclays MasterCard, the incompetent call center they use in Manila, the uniformed bank customer service personnel in the U.S. who do not follow through and seem uninterested in helping, Frontier Airlines.
There are other better choices out there. Be aware - Mike

Lottery fraud
I got a mail from baclays bank, uk dat u are the lucky winner of 2009 yahoo/microsoft lottery award approved by government of uk. They told me about winning money of 250000 gbp..
But before getting the money they are asking for processing fees of 350 gbp to transfer money through online banking.
It may be fraud...
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
No ''may be'' about it. It is fraud. Steer clear of that one.
Very poor service
Don't bother with Barclays, Delaware. Submitted application for a visa card. 10 days later wrote back requesting for proof of citizenship. What? I'm only applying for a $2000 loan not $200, 000. So I mailed them back copy of my passport more than a week ago but still didn't hear from them. They told me today it may take another 10 days for them to look at the application. WTF.
I have credit cards with chase, citibank, hsbc, bank of america, amex - never have problems getting one from them. In fact I got a mortgage pre-approved within 30 minutes few days ago from Merrill Lynch/BA - no hassle. I told barclays people off on the phone today and swear I'll never apply another card with them nor would I recommend this incompetent bank to anyone. Save yourself from unnecessary hassle and frustrations. Skip barclays and just go with other banks.

@Orin, I have pay off my other 3 houses and have 7 credit card, had never had issue to obtain another credit, last week I was asked to photocopy of my Citizenship paper or other legal documents for the purpose of processing my application, I was shocked, because it is the FIRST TIME I was asked to do this and it is ILLEGAL to photo those document and send it to third parties other than for you own record.
This Bank does not deserve to be in Business if they choose this way to deny a certain Ethic group of people with a unique last name, they are acting ILLEGAL and discrimination certain Ethic group with a unfair requests.
I don't need their credit card, but Barclays Bank will closed down soon !
I've had a card with Barclays for quite some time now and it's been an excellent experience. Their customer service is open 24/7 unlike certain other banks, the application process was quick and painless and the terms of my card are among the best - better even than Discover's More card.
If you have that many credit cards, chances are that you should not be applying for more, but instead managing your finances better.
US Airways credit card
Since US Airways changed their credit card affiliation from Bank of America to Barclays I have encountered nothing but problems. First, I did not receive the first bill from Barclays in the mail. I found out I had interest fees and late charges when I went on their new website. I called Barclays and thought I was calling someone in outer space. The person could not understand English. My closing date was on the fifth of the month and I still hadn't received my bill as of the 26th of the month. I was informed that Barclays had 13 days to send out the bill after the closing date. This does not give their customer time to receive and pay their bill even if they received their bill. I paid my bill in full via telephone. I then went on-line to sign up for automatic payments. The website would not let me do this because I had paid via telephone that day. I called Barclays again and the agent told me he would have to cancel the payment and then I would be able to set up automatic payments. I did so, choosing my unique picture for security, etc. I thought my problems were solved (I had automatic payments with BOA and never had a problem). The agent told me everything had gone through and I was set up for automatic payments. Problem solved! NO! I received my bill and was shocked to find that I had late fee charges and interest. I called Barclays and they informed me I had not signed up for automatic payments and that I had cancelled a telephone payment. I tried to explain to them that their agent had cancelled the payment because their website did not permit you to sign up for automatic payments when a telephone payment was in progress. After 7 phone calls I thought my problem was solved. I paid the entire amount of my credit card in full minus the late fees and interest charges. Last week I tried to use my credit card and Barclays shut down my account. Also, I received a letter from Barclays a couple of days ago informing me that if I didn't want their credit card any longer I could cancel it but would lose all of my frequent flyer miles (135, 000). This is a disgrace.

read their terms and conditions to see how long you have to dispute charges. then dispute them.
Fraudulent Practices
Juniper initially issued me a $5, 000 line of credit. After paying the balance each month for a year or so, they increased my credit limit to $11, 000.00 without me even asking them to do so. I kept paying the card, but I started carrying a balance. I was at about $5, 500.00 when my credit card was stolen. I reported it, and was told it would be canceled immediately and I would be issued a new card. A few days later, a card arrived with the same account number as the one that had been stolen. I immediately called them, and they said they had made a mistake and that the card had not been canceled. The did have a record of my call to cancel the account, but because they did not do it, another $200.00 was taken. A few days after that, another card arrived, again, with the same number as the old account. I called again, and they told me that there are a couple ways to cancel an account and that somehow, it had not been done. What a professional response! The finally issued me a new card with a new account number, and I thought everything had been resolved. All of a sudden, I get an Email telling me that I'm over my credit limit. They had reduced my credit limit to the point that I was over my limit. They said they had sent me a letter that I never received. Their response was "we are not responsible for the U.S. Mail".
3 months after this, I noticed that they had put the $200.00 charge back on my account that had been taken after I had canceled the card. They also raised my interest rate from 8.99% to 14.51%. Today, I received a letter stating that as of November, my interest rate will be 19.99%. I am paying off this card, cutting it up and mailing it to the CEO of Barclay's bank. I've sent a letter to the CEO and copied the FDIC. I advise anyone who is having a problem with these usurers to do the same. The FDIC does not tolerate this crap and the more people who complain, the more likely it is that they'll take some type of action against this unscrupulous outfit.
There is a great card out there if your credit is good. It is the True Rewards Card that is available with no annual fee to Costco members. Go for it!

I hope all complaints will also be filed with the FTC. They need to be made aware of this company's practices.
I called Juniper Bank & ask for my payoff balance in June, 2005. I canceled & paid my credit card in full. At the time, I owed $3, 005. In June, 2008, I received a call from a collection company telling me I owed Juniper Bank $7, 764.94. I faxed my proof that I paid off the card & received a letter stating I didn't owe Juniper Bank any money. Today, March 20, 2011, I recived a call from a collection company stating I owe Juniper Bank $11, 000. When will this ever stop?
Standing order
I was called by the collection team about a resolve loan which was suggested to me by barclays team. They told me to stay within my limit for two months then I will be elligible for a resolve loan which they did. They sent me paper work to sign with my desired day of collection which I did 26 of the month. I received a call today on my mobile phone telling that I have a default. I was very surprised and I said to the lady we agreed on the 26th for the money to be collected from my account on my pay day . She said the money will be collected. This morning as a routine check on my online banking, what a disaste they have taken the money twice. Tomorrow I am going to the bank to see the branch manager to clarify this outrageous behaviour of people who are dissastified and angry dealing with people's accounts.

Stop calling
Hi,
I am receiving call to my land line (040-[protected]) from Barclays Bank Executives and also computerized call for asking an unknown person whom i don't know.
And the call frequency is 7-8 times a day and i am fed up by replying to them and saying them that its a wrong number please update it but, even after saying many times they did not stopped calling me. Even one of their executive used bad language with me when i said i will file a case against them. So i need an action to be taken by the Barclays Bank people.

An absolute disgrace of a bank!!
Listen to this for complete stupidity!
Got a cheque for my to cash from france, it was a french cheque right! Brought it into barclays (My bank) about 2 or 3 weeks ago. I filled out the form as it was an international cheque, and I asked him there and then did I need to sign the back of it, and he said no...
Went into the bank anyway cause it hadnt gone in yet, so they give me a number to ring where they send the cheques.. They told me that they had to send it back cause it wasnt signed! What a joke! So now they cant find it in the bank and they say theres nothing they can do about it! I was like are you kidding me.. So some ### who cant do his job and didnt tell me to sign a cheque costs me this hassle! So I asked for the manager and they said they have to get him to ring me!
What a joke.. Stuff like that should be bread and butter to them.. Imagine some guy that works in a bank doesnt realise that I need to sign the back of a cheque...
Im absolutely fuming! Wasted my whole lunch time!

Unprofessional service
I just cant understand how a company such as Barclays Bank can get away with providing such a poor service to their customers.
There is never anyone help or provide any service when you need them, (unless you get lucky to talk with someone who doesnt even live in the UK) I just think its sad that we the public allow this to happen and do nothing to stop these companies from doing what ever they please.
Im just fed up and will close my account asap.
DONT BANK WITH BARCLAYS !
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
I have a mortgage supposedly paid off last week, but the life assurance division have not sent a cheque to the mortgage dept (same company and they use bloody cheques?) missing for the last two weeks.
Meanwhile I still pay interest and even the complaints dept can't sort it out because the claim to be different companies, same damn name and the same to Barclay's customers!
They can't take an electronic transfer of funds, why? WTF?
Unbelievable.
- As I type waiting for a call-back on the third complaint I have lodged.
Wow, what a joke of a bank. Barclays Bank's customer service department is by far THE worst I have encountered. I am surprised Frontier Airlines has not moved on to a different bank to administer the frequent flier credit card offer. The customer service at the bank is the worst I have ever experienced.
If I did not love Frontier Airlines and want the mileage credit I would have dumped Barclays Bank long ago.
Seriously, I do not understand how a company (Barcays) can stay in business with the poor customer service, lack of follow through, incompetent employees, not well-trained employees on their own products (e. g. stating they don't offer a "Pay Pass" credit card through Frontier Airlines, when they do!), weak supervisors, not calling back within 24 hours as they state a manager will do and managers not even aware of what the problem is.
This goes back to mid-May when I was sent a new credit card because I was "upgraded" to a better card. Two months later and nearly 30 phone calls and I don't have resolution and continue to get incompetent customer service employees who give me incorrect information and do not seem to care to fix the situation. Stay clear of getting one of these cards if you can help it. (I read the negative post by a person who "was roped" into one there at the Denver Airport.)
I am so disappointed in this product, Barclays Bank, any Barclays cards, especially the Frontier Airlines Barclays MasterCard, the incompetent call center they use in Manila, the uniformed bank customer service personnel in the U.S. who do not follow through and seem uninterested in helping, Frontier Airlines.
There are other better choices out there. Be aware - Mike
Customer Service
After a ridiculous time fighting (and losing) a battle of a tripled interest rate causing my Juniper card account balance to exceed the available credit and incurring not one, but two months worth of $39 overlimit fees, I can say I've been fed up with their service.
Customer service is horrible. After many attempts to contact their outsourced service by phone and email, they wouldn't even give me a physical address of their US location.
So, I took it upon myself to locate these folks. Here's the information for where us consumers can complain and get results:
Juniper (Barclay US) Bank
100 S. West St.
Wilmington, DE 19801

[protected] (fax)
and here are some names of interest:
Anthony Jenkins - Chairman
Joe Purzycki - COO
Kevin Murphy - Director of Customer Support
Tom Karinashak - Director of Customer Care
Joyce Walsh - Senior Director, Solutions Development
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
I also had unauthorized $39 fees assessed against my account and had it continually billed even after the (phillipine) customer service rep promised to remove them after my payment was received. They did not remove the $39. I'm now writing the COO (Purzycki).
Their promises and word appears no good.
I also had a phone purchase of around 200 declined even though I had an open line of over $2000 and have NEVER been late on a payment.
My advice is to find somewhere else to do business.
Sincerely,
John C
$117 in fees for $2.02???
My Juniper Bank credit card account was assessed a finance charge that put me two cents over the limit. Juniper Bank charged me $39 for this two cents. I called to work with them, they refused and let me know they could charge me even if I went one cent over the limit. I closed my account, doubled my payment and attempted to get back on track. They raised my interest rate, assessed finance charges that put me two dollars over the limit and charged me another $39. I attempted to once again work with them, they refused. I doubled my payment and scheduled it online on 7/18/2009 for my due date of 7/31/2009. They started calling me on 7/27/2009 to remind me my payment was due on 7/31. This happened three days in a row, each time I pointed out the pending payment and they promised to remove me from their list to call. (My payment wasn't even due yet and they were starting collection attempts?) On 7/31/2009 my balance showed $1291.64. My payment was received by them on my due date in the amount of $80. This, with the finance charges of $22.77 would have brought me to a balance of $1233.41, which is under my limit of $1250. However, on 7/27, they assessed me another overlimit fee, which put me back over the limit before my bill was even due. They didn't post this charge until 8/4/2009 after my statement printed, so not only didn't they wait until after my payment was due to assess this new fee, they also made sure I wouldn't know about it until after the fact. They had promised me after the second over limit fee that I would not be assessed another overlimit fee as long as I brought my account back under the limit by 7/31, my due date, which I did. This third overlimit fee has put me back over my limit by $23. They are refusing to remove any of the fees. The fees now total $117 for $2.02.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
Does anyone want to start a class action suit against this bank for fraud?
I payed this bank off several months ago and they still send bills.
If this persists I personally goin to sue them for break the Consumer law Act623
Of the fair credit act.
Let me know if anyone want to join this suit.
I paid my charge card in full. I called to see if the checks posted to my account. They did it said I had a zero balance. I got a bill in the mail on 10/1 stating that I owed them 1.23 dollars for a finance charge. I called them up and they said it is their policy to charge interest on cash advance on a daily basis. If that is the case then no one would be able to pay off their balances in full.
I told them my balance is zero. Zero times any interest rate is still zero. The second lady agreed with that statement, but they said it was the interest rate that caused the finance charge to occur. They don't understand when a bill is fully paid off you can not legally charge a person anymore money on that same bill. I did report them the the BBB.
I am mad about being overcharge. They did say that they will adjust my account. They already did and I did not like it.
All banks do this - not just juniper. However, I do have a Juniper Credit Card and they are the only one that reduced my credit limit (even though I pay off my balance every month).
I asked them about a credit limit increase and they responded with
If you can prove your income exceeds $200, 000.00 then I could be considered for a credit increase. F YOU JUNIPER. The only reason why I haven't closed my account with Juniper is because of the negative effects of closing a credit card account.
Contact BBB of Delaware... Its the only way to get then to respond to any complaints. The only contact with in Juniper is Elizabeth Chistoper @ [protected]... I am going to close my account with Juniper as I have numerious problems with my account even though I paid 10 day eairly via eletronic payments in the past. So I paid them off...
Now they slaimed me into its paperless billing program and when I got a $79.99 bogus charge on account it went out over 90 days with them saying I signed up for paperless billing which I never did that so when I didn't get a hard copy statement of my acct it didn't get paid... I only noticed it as they reported me as late pay to my credit report and I didn't owe then anything. I tried serveral time to resolve any issue though it CSR reps and they will lie to you saying they will get things resolve your problems and they will drop you like a hot rock. The CSR are not interisted in helping its customers and they will just add to your problems with Barclays Bank. HOW CAN AFFORD TO DO BUSINESS WITH BARCLAYS BANK.
Why would you take cash out on a credit card? No, the fee was not for cash advance activity, it was for being a ###. Please stop bothering the BBB because they have enough bull to worry about without having to deal with your silly complaint. Read your cardmember agreement, the answer is in there.
