    Which one of you designed Barclay's IT systems?

    My god.

    The app's broken on Android (works intermittently pick a random time of day)

    The portal to upload my documents is also unusable (spits out error codes, the uploads hang)

    Did you not think to do some basic testing on any of this, seriously? I can't believe any of this is on a live environment, shocking beyond belief.

    What's going on! It's not IR35's fault either

    It's called a 'feature'

      I know how bad that stuff is.
      I never worked for them even though they tried.
      Only went to radders twice!
      Once for a party which ended up in mass contractor terminations. Some contractors here may remember the tennis court incident!
      Second for an "interview" I am surprised the KGB didn't make an appearance!

          Wasn’t there a tale from one of the world wars with hostages being forced to make bullets and the bullets were so bad that they would not fire?

            Sounds like it's about as good as the British Airways stuff that I've had to interface with recently....
            Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

              Mostly works for me but can be slow. The biggest issue is it refuses to work on normal Chrome for some unknown reason but is fine with the bleeding edge Canary

                  Barclays and RBS are the last refuge of the scoundrel.
