Barclaycard arises from Barclays PLC and stands as an iconic credit card provider accessible locally at www.barclaycard.co.uk. The first Barclaycard arrived in 1966 and it is today the market leader in the UK serving around 11 million local customers and there are 11 million customers outside of the UK. They operate from both London and Northampton. Most of the Barclaycard credit cards are designed for those with good to excellent credit scores. There is one product of interest though by the name of the Barclaycard Initial that is their highest priced product at 29.9% APR and is headlined as a credit building card. It doesn’t receive the same press in this sector as for example Capital One and Vanquis Bank does with it being a more stricter choice.

As I am aware, CCJs in the past 12 months or a few recent defaults may be enough to see the applicant declined. The Barclaycard Initial credit limit is not stated. I believe it may start at £200 and shoot up to a maximum of £2500. You will of course be able to manage your account at www.barclaycard.co.uk that is SSL secure. This Barclaycard credit card (Initial) also comes with 0% on purchases for 3 months. Their notable prime products include one of their Platinum editions that carries a 0% balance transfer deal for 28 months (18.9% APR standard and 0% on purchases for 6 months) and the Platinum Simplicity is a good one that has a long term rate of just 7.9% APR.
