AIBU to think this long a wait for a card is ridiculous?

[Dogscanteatonions]

Barclays are issuing me with a new bank card due to a fraudulent transaction. It was ordered last Wednesday and isn't here yet. I'm told it takes 5 to 7 working days to arrive.

I can't pay for anything online and neither can I use Google pay.

Surely in this day when so many places are card only this is ridiculous? I can't pay my rent either as I can only do a card payment.

So frustrating!

OP if you’re online banking isn’t working the best thing you can do is go to a branch to get it sorted, i wouldn’t bother calling up as it’s frustrating as heck being stuck in a queue. Luckily Barclays still have quite a robust branch network compared to some others x
