Easy and efficient!

I've genuinely not got a bad word to say about the Barclays banking app. It's user friendly and they are constantly updating the app with features that are really handy. I like that I can phone the bank via the app and there's always notifications to remind customers of important things such as fraud awareness or if the app won't be operating over the weekend. Overall I think the app has helped me manage my money better and whenever I phone the bank I'm greeted with a friendly advisor who is ready to help. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Great place and Great team ready to help you 24*7

Bieng first time in UK my biigest challenge was to open a bank account but after meeting the team of Barclays all my worries went in the air. They are supportive and i had my account within the same day. I am a happy customer since then and happy to keep my money safe with them Reviewed on: 7th December 2018
