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

Barclays Banking App

It is efficient and, most importantly, time-saving. I love the fact that the facilities are there to make a transaction at any time of the day or night. Reviewed on: 12th December 2018
