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

Easiest bank i've ever had to deal with

Barclays is a very modern day bank, online banking and mobile banking app are excellent with some great features, there is very little reason to visit a bank when you bank with Barclays. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Barclays apps are great

I think the app is so good and easy to use, even pingit is so good as well. It makes it so easy for me to send money to people and check my account. I also love the fact that I can call the bank through the app if I have any problems. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018
