Barclays Mobile Banking App. is leaps ahead

5
In the last quarter of 2018, the Barclays mobile banking app has really come into its own - with great features in that I can temporarily block my debit card in real-time, turn on/turn off internet shopping purchasing, adjust ATM limits and more. It puts so much control in the hands of the Barclays smartphone user. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018
