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

My local branch in ystradgynlais has closed and at first i thought it would cause me a few problems, But ! i have found my mobile app to be a great asset to me in my banking, not really missed the branch at all. Very easy to install and navigate around, just like having a local branch with me all the time. try it yourself. Reviewed on: 9th December 2018
