Not working as advertised

1
Mobile app crashes pretty often, does not work on contactles payments as it should - for example says it has been paid, but in fact payment declined because international payments not enabled. takes time to figure out where there problem is. Or says paid but payment declined - everything enabled - every option - in store payments internationally and locally, still does not work overseas and at home, had to take the card and do the chip & pin, the app said - an error occurred one time and paid the other time, so messages are basically useless. And many other bugs in the app that annoys on a daily use. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Easy and user friendly mobile app and internet banking system.

4
Best thing of Barclays is that Barclays always ask their customers for suggestions on adding new features to make it easy to use the mobile app and internet banking. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018
