How can I log in to Online Banking without my PINsentry card reader?
If you don't have your PINsentry card reader, you can still access Online Banking.
Use Mobile PINsentry
It's included in the latest version of the Barclays Mobile Banking app but you'll first need to have used the PINsentry card reader at least once before using the mobile version. Please note that it takes 10 days from when you registered for the app for Mobile PINsentry to be available.
Log in with your passcode and memorable word
This option is only available if you've already set up your passcode and memorable word. If you have, just follow the instructions on the Online Banking log-in page. If you’ve forgotten your passcode, you can request a new one on the log-in page.
If you haven’t set up your passcode and memorable word, you can do this in just 4 steps:
Step 1 – log in using your PINsentry card reader
Step 2 – from your homepage, select the drop-down menu under your name and click ‘Change passcode and memorable word’ under the ‘My details' menu
Step 3 – follow the on-screen instructions to set up your passcode and memorable word
Step 4 – enter your new details and save
You can find more detailed information on the Online Banking log-in page
