Best high street banking app

The barclays app is the most user friendly out there and the features available are those which cannot be matched at the moment. Further their savings rates remain competitive Reviewed on: 4th June 2024

Not easy to speak to

I find the app quite good but trying to speak to someone is very difficult, I have been trying to open a bank account for my teenager for the past 12 months unsuccessfully. The video chat on the app doesn't work and it is 2 month wait for an appointment in branch. Reviewed on: 5th April 2023

Sensible with my money

3
Holding one of the bottom line products , I have found my account to be treated with fairness . No overdraft facility means I stay e we iron budget . This is automatically reviews as my financial situation improves . One the negative side I find , on the sop, it is pushing products that are irrelevant to me . I would appreciate a more bespoke approach to my offers. Reviewed on: 5th April 2023
