As part of measures to help consumers with their finances during the coronavirus pandemic, Barclays has agreed not to charge overdraft interest for agreed overdrafts on personal current accounts from 27th March to 30th April 2020.
It will be a welcome gesture for borrowers with Barclays, many of who are facing uncertainty with their finances during these unprecedented times.
The bank introduced its revised tariff charging 35% EAR on overdrafts on 23rd March this year.
