Talked to stuart today and basically by the sounds of it Barclaycard would have totally cut their scheme totally if they weren't under some contract T&C to CJ.
Looks like it's a "£2 is better than nowt" view that we've got to suck up, personally I wouldn't take it cos if we do then it's a case of "well they took £2 before.. so let's just keep paying that" or only a lesser amount of what it previously was.
Barclaycard have pulled all online advertising across the board (except where contracts mean they gonna get slapped) as they have run out of budget for online.
Shame of it is that you can bet your granny's a$$ they'll still be sending out a forest full of glossy flyers now and defo for xmas and the new year which convert worse than a "tony blair was right to invade iraq" support poll.
hey ho.. least you still have a choice, CJ got the T&C's in place and Barclaycard have to provide some sort of scheme for now so fair dues to CJ for not letting them off the "cease with immediate effect" hook lol.
The thing is are you going to take £2 ?? I won't but that's me..
