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

Bank elsewhere!

Barclays makes banking an extremely difficult and frustrating process. I bank with a number of banks and I am never left feeling the level of frustration I do with Barclays. After of years of negative experiences I am finally closing my account. I’m not sure why I stuck with them for as long as I did. Reviewed on: 26th September 2023
