Review of the Barclays, Current Account:

Decent enough bank

I've been with them a long time and have found my account easy to use & access whenever I need to. There are no benefits along with my account though as well as no overdraft which makes it difficult to beat other account providers Reviewed on: 24th August 2024

Banking made easy

Barclays Bank has many features on its mobile banking app which make it extremely easy to manage one’s account, make inquiries, get help, track spending and transfer money. Would highly recommend Reviewed on: 21st March 2023

Absolutely shocking customer service. My account was closed and I was treated like a criminal in the Edinburgh branch

My experience of Barclay's is not a good one at all. After banking with them for 6years, out of the blue they closed my account last June (2022), I still have not received the final decision letter that will allow me to take my complaint to the Financial Ombudsman, when I went into the branch to try and find out what was going on I was treated like a criminal, like I had done something wrong, the only reason they gave me was that I had breached their terms & conditions, I don't know what I have done. During my numerous phone calls & branch visits I felt like their customer service was not very good at all. They wouldn't let me withdraw my benefit money for over a week, and even then they made me feel like they were doing me a favour. I would not recommend Barclay's to anyone!!!!THE STAFF NEED LESSONS ON HOW TO TREAT CUSTOMERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

Great Banking App with many extra features

Love the Barclays app as it is easy to navigate and use and has many features some other banks don't.. also love the fact that I can personalise my debit card with my own photograph or design.. Reviewed on: 16th March 2023
