Your Cash ISA Reviews (23)
Safe but pointless
I've taken a cash ISA with barclays. I opted for the safe option, and basically that means it's a safe option but it's basically pointless and it's such immensely low interest.
Easy to deal with
The saving rate isn't great but I can use my ISA allowance and easily transfer money from my banking account
Professional competitive service.
I opened a 2 year flexible cash ISA with Barclays. It was simple to do and was organised speedily. Basically the interest is paid at the end of term and the minimum balance is £0.00 so you don't even need cash to open the account, although I would ...
Read moreI opened a 2 year flexible cash ISA with Barclays. It was simple to do and was organised speedily. Basically the interest is paid at the end of term and the minimum balance is £0.00 so you don't even need cash to open the account, although I would recommend putting in at least £5.00 to start. The maximum number of withdrawals allowed during the term is 3. I would recommend this savings account to anyone looking to save.
aweful banking

great range of products and excellent customer service
Barclays customer service is excellent and they have resolved issues promptly and professionally. They offer a range of products and take appropriate security measures to protect their customers with transactions. I would definitely recommend Barclays.

Great but sometimes problematic
Its pretty great but they really need to improve the quality of their staff
Difficult to change account services

Read moreI have a savings account with Barclays and I wanted an ISA with Barclays and I wanted to transfer all the money from the savings to the ISA. I was told this would be straight forward however the process took longer than anticipated because of errors at the Barclays end. Firstly they made a mistake in the type of ISA I wanted, and then made a mistake by transfering it all into that ISA. Would not recommend switching to Barclays services.
Easy Access Savings account
It was very easy to apply for the savings account, like most accounts the interest rate offered has dropped but using the account via the app is quick, with fluid transactions between accounts, warns you if you want to make more than the allowed...
Read moreIt was very easy to apply for the savings account, like most accounts the interest rate offered has dropped but using the account via the app is quick, with fluid transactions between accounts, warns you if you want to make more than the allowed withdrawals which would affect the rate of interest paid, well worth having as a side account
An account worth recommending
Barclays savings account has fulfilled my expectations so far. Online access and e-banking interface are satisfying, I have never encountered any flaw. My day-to-day operations are simple and well executed.
Leave your savings alone
Their long withdraw and transferring time makes you want to just leave your money in the savings account. No monthly fee makes it perfect for letting the money accumulate and not be spent on your account fees.
They're ok
They always give me grief when paying in cheques because the only id I carry is a provisional driving licence registered in a different address to where I live now. not everyone feels safe carrying their passport everywhere with them and I find the...

They have no customer service skills.
Excellent always helpful
I have never had a problem with Barclays
RELAXING AND EASY
CONTACT WITH BARCLAYS IS ALWAYS EASY AND PROFESSIONAL. THINGS ARE DONE QUICKLY AND WITHOUT MUCH EFFORT AND THIS MAKES YOUR WHOLE EXPERIENCE WITH THEM WORTHWHILE
Saving in an ISA
