Barclays Current account reviews (4963)

Great Apps / Poor at preventing fraud

The only reason I stay with barclays is because of the apps and how easy it is to use. However they are the only bank that I have had fraud issues with. Reviewed on: 27th December 2018

Great service

They are always happy to help in bank, online or on the phone. Always a fast service and the online banking is so easy. Reviewed on: 27th December 2018

Most efficient banking app!

Barclays banking app is very straight forward, no hassle! Direct communication to the team for any further support is on there, which I rarely use because the app is so easy! Reviewed on: 27th December 2018

I have Barclays account more that 8 years and I never have a problem.

Naw I open Blue Rewards account and I think about open save account Reviewed on: 27th December 2018

Trustworthy

I have been to several different banks and I just didn't feel comfortable with them and felt confused with everything that did. When I was recommended to use Barclays i was unsure with previous experience with other banks. So I tried it hoping for something better and simplistic and knowing my info and money is safe. Well I have been with Barclays for years now and it's a fantastic bank I couldn't give it a higher recommendation. I won't be changing banks that's for sure. Reviewed on: 26th December 2018

Average bank

Overall I am pleased with this bank. It is my first one since I came to the UK and I think I will stick with it for a while. It would be great if they had a good mobile application, which at the moment is atrociously bad. Reviewed on: 26th December 2018
