Barclaycard Worldwide Assistance

Time of past OR future Camino
First one in 2005 from Moissac, France.
Hi. I bank with Barclays (I am in the UK) and they have just sent me a Platinum Barclaycard.

I was reading through the booklet and saw they provide FREE worldwide assistance!

Through one phone number they will ...

Put you in touch with a local English-speaking lawyer
Arrange flights and other transport to get you home quickly
Provide a phone based interpretation service
Put you in touch with a local English-speaking Doctor
Help to replace lost or stolen passports (register the number with them before you go)
And ..
If card is lost or stolen get a temporary replacement to you within three working days
Make emergency cash available to you within 24 hours

The service is completely FREE, you pay only for such costs as transport and so on.

This is cool.

Pretty handy for those unforseen and deeply problematical situations.

Great for a pilgrim, don't you think? :wink:
