Best banking app by far

5
Having used several high street banking apps in the past, Barclays has always been leaps and bounds ahead of the competition. This is based on the ease of navigating the app, and the many features it offers, like international payments and paying in cheques using the camera, along with various helpful debit card features, such as viewing the PIN and temporary freeze.
