Always improving

5
I have been with Barclays for more years than I like to remember and they are always improving. I am no technophobe but the Barclays ap and online banking is easy to use and so convenient with my bank account at my fingertips 24 hours a day. If on the rare occasions I have to speak to them, no problem. The blue awards account, money for nothing, is great and soon builds up, finally I have seen the ads. for switching bank accounts, so go ahead switch TO not FROM Barclays.
