I've been using Barclays Online this morning. I've just noticed an advert seems to have been added on the "At a Glance" screen ('50 free online trades'). I don't want the advert, I dislike it, I didn't ask for it, they don't put adverts on bank statements so shouldn't drop them into the online service, it's another graphic to download. Since they've put the advert at the top of the screen, you have to scroll down to see all the information that used to be available at the top of the page (hardly 'At a glance' any more!). The Barclays online banking service used to be half-decent: why do they have to interfere...

Now, that feels better. At least if someone capable in Barclays sees this posting, they might take some notice, rather than the droid that might reply to the e-mail I sent to Barclays 'Contact' with their usual anodyne reply.
