Online Banking App

5
Beginning of the year I changed accounts to another bank and it was a case of „you don‘t know what you have until it‘s gone“ - i quickly was looking to change back to Barclays. Especially the app was so much better than other providers, it‘s simple, and gives me all features that I need. So happy to be back! Reviewed on: 7th December 2018
