Barclays Current account reviews (4953)

Ease of use

Easy to use, only downside is the poor interest rates on their Cash ISA Reviewed on: 2nd January 2019

Best bank

Easy to use, I really love my bank. Reviewed on: 2nd January 2019

Barclays banking app

The banking app is the best app I've used Reviewed on: 2nd January 2019

Great account and app

Mobile phone app far outshines other bank/building society banking apps I have hands down. Love the customisations and I can setup change and delete STOs and DDRs and paying cheques using the app is fab! Reviewed on: 2nd January 2019

Mobile banking app

Is the easiest most advanced banking app I have used and I love how I can do as little or as much banking as and when I need to! Reviewed on: 2nd January 2019

Good Bank

Pleasant to deal with and friendly staff in branch. Just wish the opening hours were friendlier for those who work office hours. Reviewed on: 2nd January 2019

Barclays just do it right!

I have had a few examples this year of excellent customer service from Barclays, both in person and over the phone. They have instigated great tools for customer communication over the last year or so with their chat facilities and continue to prove their worth in regards to other banks having issues with their IT systems etc when Barclays IT not only works but is always has the most intuitive systems to use from a customers perspective! Reviewed on: 2nd January 2019

Best App Ever

Barclays Banking App offers several services including mobile payments to friends and family. Easy to use. Reviewed on: 2nd January 2019

Great features

Love this app - so many great features and so easy to use. Reviewed on: 2nd January 2019

Great App

Barclays App is so easy to use it’s improved the way I handle my balance from making sure I don’t go into my overdraft to moving anything left at the end of the month to my savings account. Reviewed on: 2nd January 2019
