Barclays has issued a warning to its customers that one of its services will temporarily be unavailable on Sunday (October 29).

Account holders with the major bank received an alert through the Barclays app telling them online and telephone banking services would be unavailable for over an hour on Sunday morning.

Barclays said customers will still be able to use cash machines and pay using their cards but some payments may be declined.
