I have been banking with Barclays since 2003, they have handled my finances brilliant. I have nothing but express gratitude to this user friendly bank. With their mobile application I can pretty much do anything with my money. I do not need to carry my card all the time as I can always use Apple Pay on my mobile phone Reviewed on: 7th December 2018
