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

This bank, has an excellent client service. In less than an hour, I already had my account opened, and the app is easy to use. It helped me a lot, since it was my first bank account in London and both the card and the passwords came quickly to my house. Reviewed on: 8th December 2018
