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

Absolutely recommended

Since the first day I chose Barclays, I have never regret it to be a member of this society. From the way that the staff is treating you, being polite, understand the needs of each one of their clients to the services that they have available. It is absolutely worth it to give it a try and save your money and your future with Barclays. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018
