Review of the Barclays, Current account:

Best high street banking app

The barclays app is the most user friendly out there and the features available are those which cannot be matched at the moment. Further their savings rates remain competitive Reviewed on: 4th June 2024

Excellent

The app is excellent, really easy to use and everything is there on your device. Really secure and everything is in your hands, the apps really good for this day and age, really suits peoples needs in many different ways. Thanks! Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

Very helpful

Excellent advice. Very helpful in picking accounts Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

Best banking app by far

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. Reviewed on: 8th December 2018
