Review of the Barclays, Current account:

Easy to open an account

I was a UK resident but not citizen recently arrived in the UK. I went to several banks to open an account but found them uninterested and unhelpful, except Barclays. Several years later I am still with them. Reviewed on: 15th February 2016

Very Happy with Barclays 5*

I've been with Barclays for 5 years and i'm very happy with them. If i ever have any issues they always help straight away or will arrange a call back as i have had a few frustrating problems which Barclays sorted out quickly and fairly, unlike another bank who promises and never fufils promises (TSB) keep up the great work Barclays.
