RickG16 Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 I am looking for a Pinsentry card reader for UK banks... I can pick up in Samui or Phangan Happy to pay a fee - Barclays can only send one to a UK address and right now that is no good to me. Can anyone help?

KarenBravo Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 That's not true, they (Barclays) have sent at least two to my address in Thailand. They then send the ID card two weeks later. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's because I bank with them in Jersey and their clients are nearly all expats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to me that the same rules would apply in the same company (Barclays doesn't operate the same as Thai immigration). Can't you have it sent to a UK address and then have it couriered to you? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spamhead Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Hi I'm not sure if you are aware but you do not require a physical card reader for Pin Sentry use' If you have a mobile phone, your debit card and associated PIN you can load Barclays Mobile Banking App on your phone and use Mobile Pin Sentry 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And previously this was a problem as I had a different SIM card (number) linked to my account that wasn't active.... ... Now the nice people at Barclays have changed my number and everything is OK I have the mobile app Thanks for your responses everyone. Mods can close thread if you want 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony9525 Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 Just seen this thread. Glad you got it sorted. If you (or someone else) still needs a Barclays Pin Sentry, I have one her in Samui that I do not use. PM me if you need it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
