Review of the Barclays, Current Account:

Easy to use

It is a simple app to use and find my way around to do whatever I am looking to do Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Very bad customer service makes me leave Barclays

Customer for over 25 years and the one time I got scammed they let me down and wouldn't help. Very, very disappointed and I'll be closing my accounts with them at the end of March. Really poor customer service, they were very chaotic, not adding things to the complaint, loosing a signed for letter I'd sent with evidence and the last person I've dealt with was incredibly disinterested and dismissive and the one who closed the complaint. I suppose they want to get rid of old customers or something. Reviewed on: 28th February 2025

Just the best bank.

Just the best bank. I have a lot of difficulties in my life and they are so on point having it all on record so anyone speaking to me is aware which makes me feel so comfortable when contacting about ever and anything. Highly recommend Reviewed on: 26th February 2025

Very happy Long standing Barclays Customer.

LOng standing Barclays Customer and never had any reason to look else where. Very rarely had any issues and when they have arisen they have been quickly resolved. Reviewed on: 26th February 2025

Switched for nothing

I switched to Barclays purely to get the switch bonus - they took so long to authorise/process the whole thing that I never got the bonus reward. It also meant that I had no access to the account for well over a week which had some of money in it. This is the one and only time I have used a switch service and had any issues. Direct debits weren't transferred properly and had to be reset-up. The whole thing was a waste of time. I switched back as soon as I could Reviewed on: 26th February 2025
