Barclays base rate will follow BoE base rate.

Compile a spreadsheet comprising a list of every day you owed money plus 
the rate of interest for that day. Multiply the amount owed x the rate 
of interest / 365, put this formula in the adjacent column. Add that 
column up.

This assumes that interest is not compounded
