Making Additional Payments via Standing Order

It is crucial to use your 16-digit Barclays Partner Finance agreement number as the reference for your payment.

Paying with a Debit Card
Barclays Partner Finance also provides the option to make additional payments using a debit card. This method offers a quick and straightforward way to get funds to your account, and can be done at any time through their automated telephone service.

Important Note on Payment Processing Times:
Understanding the processing times for different payment methods is essential for timely management of your account. For debit card payments made over the phone, please be aware that these typically take one working day to reflect in your account.
Submitting Payments via Cheque
For those who prefer traditional payment methods, submitting a cheque is also a viable option for making additional payments to your Barclays Partner Finance agreement.

Cheques should be made payable to ‘Barclays Partner Finance’. It is imperative that you write your 16-digit Barclays Partner Finance agreement number clearly on the reverse of the cheque. This reference is vital for the correct processing and allocation of your payment.
Once completed, cheques should be posted to the following address:
Barclays Partner Finance
PO Box 2501

Understanding Payment Processing Timelines
To ensure your payments are processed without delay, it’s important to be aware of the different timelines associated with each payment method. These timelines help you plan your payments effectively to avoid any late fees or account discrepancies.
| Payment Method | Estimated Processing Time |
|---|---|
| Debit Card (Telephone) | 1 working day |
| Deposits in a Barclays Branch | 2 working days |
| Bank Transfers (BACS & Standing Orders) | 3-5 working days |
| Cheques | 5-10 working days |
It is highly recommended to allow sufficient time for your payment to reach Barclays Partner Finance, especially when using methods with longer processing times such as cheques or bank transfers. Planning ahead will help you maintain a healthy account status.
Important Considerations for Financial Assistance
In certain circumstances, you may need to contact Barclays Partner Finance regarding issues such as outstanding finance on a vehicle you have purchased. If you find yourself in such a situation and were unaware of any existing finance agreements, it is important to follow the correct procedure.
For customers who have purchased a vehicle with outstanding finance held by Barclays Partner Finance, and were unaware of this, please contact them directly on 0800 15 22 888*. Following your initial contact, you will be required to complete an ‘innocent party questionnaire’. It is crucial to only complete this questionnaire after speaking with a Barclays representative and after they have recorded the necessary information from you. Submitting the questionnaire without prior contact may result in your investigation being unable to proceed.
Furthermore, it is advised not to dispose of the vehicle until the investigation is fully complete. Doing so could make you liable for damages. Barclays Partner Finance will contact you via telephone or in writing to inform you of their decision and the next steps following their investigation.
