Review of the Barclays, Current account:

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

Best app ever

I use the app every day I never need to go into the branch or ring to speak to a advisor, I can move my own money, make payments to friends and other companies, I’ve opened savings accounts, took photos of cheques rather than depositing these in a bank, I like that I can see my transactions and now pending transactions, I have set up standing orders and cancelled my own direct debits and even used the chat to order a new cheque book, I like that I can call use of the direct call option I have only used this once it was simple, I have packs on my account and like that I can view the terms and contact details at any time from my app and even downloaded apps for my rac cover and the phone insurance cover, I use this app daily and could not be without it Reviewed on: 7th December 2018
