Fantastic interest rate for a current account Reviewed on: 30th March 2023

the app needs work

offers great rates, but the app is not functional. Reviewed on: 30th March 2023

I'd never go to anyone else

I've banked with Barclays since I was old enough to hold a bank account. I trust them implicitly so much so that I have not only my mortgage through them but also both of my children's savings accounts, all of which I can easily access via the app. I have never had any issue with the products, services or staff ... 100% professional 100% of the time. Reviewed on: 29th March 2023

A lot of fraud and scam, lost your money easily

Barclays is easy to be hacked, lost money and bank never help out. Stay away with Barclays Reviewed on: 29th March 2023

Amazing

When my mum passed away they couldn't of been better .Despite my problems they bent over backwards to make my experience easier and helped me a great deal .I would strongly recommend them to anyone who is thinking of opening a new account. Reviewed on: 28th March 2023

I miss barclays

I used to bank with Barclays for years until I recently switched to First Direct due to their current switching programme. I miss Barclays and will be coming back for sure some point in the future Reviewed on: 25th March 2023

Good app

Very user friendly app. No hustle, no millions of passwords Reviewed on: 24th March 2023

Bad in every respect

Business account, they got rid of personal bankers, who organized things for you. We now have a phone line that is never answered by staff who don’t have a clue about my business Mortgage, had to repeatedly explain that what they were telling me re my mortgage was wrong. Put in a complaint, the complaints person said I was wrong. The next day I phone to pay off my mortgage and close the account because I was so annoyed, to be told that I was correct and the previous Barclays staff were wrong. I closed my account anyway. Just rubbish Reviewed on: 24th March 2023

Great bank - over 10 years with them and counting

Have always had a great service from Barclays either at a branch, on the app or over the phone. Would recommend quite confidently Reviewed on: 23rd March 2023
