Barclaycard closing our a/cs on November 16th! Banking & Financial

Well that’s a shock! They claim to have written to us in March 2019 and then nothing - absolute silence until now. So they are giving us 2 months notice. Very frustrating as I’ve had a Barclaycard since they were first launched and even here in France have found it very helpful for paying for stuff on UK websites and occasionally here in France when the end of the month gets tight. OK, so I can use my UK bank debit card, but the month’s credit is always useful. Assuming this is to do with Brexit, so wondering where that leaves us for getting new credit cards. OH suggesting Amex, but I prefer not - expensive for retailers so not everyone accepts them. Any suggestions please for alternative credit cards?
