The app I use most

5
My experience with BMB? It is amazing how much an app can rule my life, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. Easy to use, can see my money whenever to keep up to date and it’s personalised to me. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Changing banks

I moved to Barclays from another bank. Setup online, accounts active the same day, a helpful lady in the local branch setup the move of all my direct debits. She also advised on the reasonable options for my new account, travel and house insurance. Everything has been smooth and painfree with regular updates, texts and messages I feel like a valued customer. A great experience all round Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Good account

Best bank account

5
Have been with barclays for a long time and had the best experience during this time. They have one of the best app in the banking market right now, i am saying this after actually comparing it with some others. Online banking and banking app are two of the main parts which are mostly in contact with actuall customers so they have to be at there best. Barclays app is most easy to use and packed with all the features. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018
