Review of the Barclays, Current account:

Best high street banking app

5
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

Staff are always super friendly and super helpful, even when extremely busy. I love my Barclays app, but I love my local bank more Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Great service

Brilliant bank only thing is branch needs more appointments available to do simple things like changing your name after getting married. Or showing documents to close a dormant account. But fabulous service and fraud team stop things fast even if it was myself making the transaction, just could call to let us know they stopped the card to avoid embarrassment at trying to pay for things.
