Brilliant bank and app easy to use

5
I’ve been with Barclays for many many years now, and they have always been a great bank to be with. The app is so easy to use to transfer or just check your account balance. I won’t be changing to any other bank as it’s always been great and very good customer service too. Reviewed on: 12th June 2025

Disappointing for loyal customers

1
If you're looking for a current account that gives you something back, Barclays might disappoint. The standard account pays no interest on your balance, which makes it feel like your money is just sitting there doing nothing. For a traditional bank, you'd expect a bit more in return for your loyalty. Overall, it’s a bare-bones account with very little incentive to stick around if you're after interest or added value.

My experience of using Barclays is good enough.

4
My experience of using Barclays is good enough. The thing that bothers me the most is creating an account on barclays. OmG it was comparatively time taking and messy. I mean why this bank has so many doubts. Other banks also create accounts for you but they dont take this much time. Otherwise this is a good banking service. I love the most is the card, the cards are luxurious , stylish and pretty. Reviewed on: 11th April 2025
