Brilliant! Moved my banking over to Barclays about 6 months ago, and to date have found them (relatively) easy to use and deal with. Their online banking is particularly good.

Their credit card department however is a different story altogether…

Likely that HSBC will take it on? And then mess it up?

Unlikely, HSBC want more branches (currently limited) and the Barclays sales specifically excludes their 2 Central Bank branch licences.
