  • barclay card declined in shops and online but works in machine?

    Hello,

    Last night i tried ordering something online, but kept having a error message so ended up giving up thought id try again tomorrow sometime.

    Today then i went into town, went to use my card for some Christmas presents in store and my card got declined... i tried again, declined again, luckily i had the cash on me to save anymore embarrassment , i then went into my local barclays branch checked my balance on machine, all normal, went to speak to a member of staff who swiped my card, looked into my account but couldn't see no problem ... They asked me to use there phone in branch and speak to someone on the phones to look into my account more, i done so, spoke to a man on the phones who again couldn't see no problem with my account and just said it could just be a problem with my card itself and would send me out a new card in the next few days... ,

    I then went to there cash machines in branch just to double check again my account balance and see if it would draw money out, my balance was fine all normal yet my card then allowed me to draw money out with no problem... which i found strange as online and in shops my card isnt working and surely if there was a issue with the card itself it shouldn't work in the machine either? But like i mentioned i drew out money no problem.

    I then went home and tried paying a bill online thinking if its my card thats just the problem like barclays believes or something, surely me ordering something online should work ,but no again error messages declining me ordering online, i tried a couple of other sites online to pay for things but nope nothing is working still so i cant pay or buy nothing online.

    I don't understand this as ok if there is a problem with my card itself, like barclays think, surley i should still be able to use my account online to pay for things?

    Like i mentioned i used a cash machine using my card and it worked fine, its just in shops and online, is this normal for my card to be doing this as surley i should still be able to use online? I thought mabey a block might of been put on my account, this has happened before a few months back due to fraud suspect which turned out to be nothing, but like i mentioned ive been in branch, also phoned and know1 can see a problem, they are sending me out a new card but im confused as if my card is the problem why is it working in a cash machine, and why isnt my account able to buy stuff online, as of course im not using my chip n pin etc online to buy for things ,so im confused, can anyone suggest what might be the problem? anyone had similar issues?

    Thanks all

  • 20 week scan rebooked due to baby's position ?? worried...?

    Hia

    I had my 20 week scan today, well im 19 weeks 5 days.

    All was ok at first, baby was facing normal way, and told me the sex which is a boy straight away :) they was checking everything n all looked fine, but then baby moved face down and curled up near end when trying check the back and spine etc, so asked me to drink more water and go for a walk but didnt help so they have rebooked me for 10 days ,they said they needed a better look at back of spine but couldnt see it because of babys position, which like i said was face down curled up.

    Its just worried me abit, the lady didnt seem worried n said everything else she checked was fine im just still worried, has this happened to anyone else? x

  • 12 weeks pregnant, bleeding at 7 weeks, worried incase...?

    Hia

    Im just a little concerned, basically im just over 12 weeks pregnant, I have my dating scan in 10 days (28th june).

    When i was 6/7 weeks pregnant i had some light bleeding/spotting,

    the bleeding went on for over a week, no pains just light blood, on the tuesday night it started first ,then the following monday i went for a early scan at my local hopsital,and they said everything was fine, we could see baby and heartbeat was there etc, and dr just said it can happen, its quite comman bla bla, at this point i had been bleeding for nearly a week, anyway i still had very light bleeding that day and for another 3 days until the thursday or friday then its stoped and i havent had any since.

    Basically ive been reading stuff since online etc, like miscarriage can happen over a few days, week or so, so im scared that since that early scan i could of had a miscarriage as i was still bleeding for 3 days after the scan. Like i said i had been bleeding for nearly a week when i first had the early scan.

    Like i said i should be just over 12 weeks now ,no bleeding since so thats 5 weeks or more now ,still got symptoms, sore boobs on and off , ive been sick since, sick last couple days ago, gagged alot, feeling really dizzy and light headed last couple weeks, tired on and off, been having light discharge now and again, and my stomach in past two weeks or so has gone really firm to touch , and slightly bigger it feels and looks. Im just worried though.

    What do people think from what ive said?

    Anyone else had bleeding for few days and all been ok at next scans etc?

    Thanks all :) xx

  • what happens at a early pregnancy scan? ( 7 weeks ) ?

    Hia :)

    I got to go for a early scan on Monday at my local hospital for a early scan at the early scan unit.

    Im about 7 weeks gone, so early days, but ive had some light bleeding now and again when i go to the loo sometimes. Monday feels like years away :(

    What would they do at a early scan? Would it be a normal scan or a scan through my vagina? If so, does it hurt? truthfully? I got to take a full bladder wee sample too to take with me.

    Anyone had a early scan? How did they scan you etc?

    Just want some advice :)

    Thanks all x

  • Scared i might have had miscarriage :(?

    Hia

    Im about 6 - 7 weeks pregnant, only early days. since this afternoon when i went to the loo, there was some blood on my pad (wear a pad just to keep fresh) it wasnt alot of blood but it was still blood, i wiped and a light pinkish blood was on the tissue, last few times ive been to the loo once or twice been no blood on tissue but other times been light pinkish blood.

    Ive put another pad on and theres some more blood on the pad, not loads of blood just some ,it looks brownish on the pad but i dont know if thats just the pad ,like the material of the pad making it look brown. and just light blood still most of the time. Im not in any pain.

    Im going to ring the doctors in the morning, what do you think they will do ? will they see me straight away? or will they tell me to go to the hospital?

    Could they give me a scan this early to check?

    Any advice from anyone whos been through this on what to expect when i ring the doctors tomorrow? Thanks all x

  • Pregnant. Going to doctors tomorrow for first time. What to expect??? Advice please ? :) xx?

    Hia,

    I think im pregnant, took 4 pregnancy tests all positive, period hasnt come ,sore boobs on and off and feeling sick on and off.

    Booked an appointment tomorrow at the doctors to have another test done hopefully just to confirm pregnancy, but what else will doctor do?

    Will the dr do any other tests or just ask a few questions etc?

    What happened on your first times at the doctors?

    Im from the UK , also is folic acid free on prescription? i went on the nhs official website and some others, and it said yes you can on prescription if u ask. "Where can I get folic acid supplements?

    You can get folic acid supplements from pharmacies, supermarkets and health food shops. You can also get folic acid on prescription from your GP" - thats from the website.

    Any advice about the doctors then?

  • reformatted pc, now internet isnt working?

    Hello

    My boyfriends pc had to be reformatted due to a power problem ,a friend of a friend of his reformated his computer but hes from what i can see, has balls it up.

    Basically the internet isnt connecting at all, we cant get a connection ,just a normal eternet connection, nothing is happening, and its also asking for a windows registraion key , he has typed the one and i have on the side of his tower but its saying wrong key.

    What can we do to try and solve this problem?

    How much would it cost roughly to take it to a local pc repair shop to solve this? Ive been talking to a few people and they think it could be the lan card drivers and eternet drivers not installed correctly.

    Thanks
