Always received great service, i have never had a problem with any services and always notified if there is going to be any system down time. Mobile app is the most accessible app i have used, i bank with Nationwide and Lloyds, both fail to delivery a fluid interface and experience. Reviewed on: 16th January 2019

Barclays Best Bank apps!!!

5
Barclays is the easiest bank app for both personal and business account, and credit cards. Easy to set up and view your account in a click, security is very on point. bank statement and customer enquiry resolved quickly. I will choose barclays anytime anyday. Their customer service is one of the best from all the other banks i have. Reviewed on: 16th January 2019

Easy to use app, easy transactions, can see status of my credit card as well. Reviewed on: 16th January 2019

Banking made less complicated

5
The online banking was not my idea of traditional banking. I prefered to visit my local branch and speak to someone about my banking matters. However since I started using online banking for my every day banking matters I found it surprisingly easy to use. I still visit my branch for some banking matters such as money transfer, as I am bit reluctant to do that online, but that out of personal preference rather than any issues with the app itself. I would recommend it to anyone. Reviewed on: 15th January 2019

Fantastic app and great new features

5
A fantastic Barclays Current Account and mobile banking app. The iOS App is easily to use and I can easily view transactions with retailer logos. In addition, I have added the Tech Pack to my account which saves me so much money on phone and other device insurance. Looking forward to see what other exciting features will arrive in 2019 - such as real time notifications! Reviewed on: 15th January 2019
