Review of the Barclays, Business Banking:

Leaving ASAP

1
Barclays are wealthy and it seems that is because they refuse to invest money on any of their systems or training their staff. They cut corners and do not listen to the issues of their customers. Waiting for up to 3 hours to speak to someone because their app doesn’t do what it says it does is unnecessary. Don’t try and add a new card to an existing account if you need it in under 6 months and value your personal details as they are likely to get lost 4 times (happened to us) but its ok because they have lots of money to pay out on complaints! 4 other serious issues with our business account in the last 2 years, all of which we were paid money as an apology. I’d much rather just be able to spend and get at my money an pay my bills. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

The Barclays banking app makes managing you business alot easier

5
Great business tools to help monitor your bank account and make payments on the move. The app "call" feature is great a most of the security is pre completed by you being logged into the app when you need to speak to someone. Reviewed on: 8th January 2019

Personal Service

5
A dedicated manager who helped us through setting up our business banking and mortgage. Excellent personal service. Reviewed on: 30th December 2018

Big, complacent & unsatisfactory

1
The focus of this rant is Barclays online banking. It's optimised for the benefit of the bank, not for that of the users. Its unreliability suggests that 'upgrades' are released without exposure of the 'enhancements' to real users (as opposed to business analysts who think they understand how users work) and without adequate testing. Worse, Barclays is demonstrably uninterested in customer feedback. They should get an award for originality in making them themselves uncontactable. Why do I stay with Barclays? Simple - better the devil you know than the one you don't. Reviewed on: 27th December 2018
