Review of the Barclays, Current account:

Easy to open an account

I was a UK resident but not citizen recently arrived in the UK. I went to several banks to open an account but found them uninterested and unhelpful, except Barclays. Several years later I am still with them. Reviewed on: 15th February 2016

Best banking app

I have various accounts but the preferred account is Barclays, it is clear, uncluttered and balances the need for security with fast access. I feel secure using it! Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

The app is very well laid out, looks smart and is very easy to use. It has a lot of features and even linked up my Barclaycard which means I can make payments to that in the app as well. By far the best mobile banking app I have used. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Overall a very good app for all round safe customer service and easy to understand and use
