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

I love Barclay’s bank app. I can do anything on it and save a lot of time. It is easy to use and it is very well developed. The design is great. I love how fast it works and the fact that I’ve never had problems with it is a plus. The best banking app I’ve had so far! Reviewed on: 9th December 2018
