Barclays Current account reviews (4920)

My mobile banking is a life line for me. 100_

Always great and successful I'm a pensioner living in the country I can keep track know of all my money going in and out of my account Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Very simple, easy use! What more could you want?

The app is so easy to use everything you need is there as soon as you log in, the only thing I think the app needs to be the best about is Touch ID/Face ID to unlock the app, other than that it’s perfect! Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Excellent service

I love Barclays mobile app, I have instant access to my account anywhere and can transfer money between accounts immediately. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Easy to use

Although I am a technophobe I have found the app easy to use. Helps me manage my money by enabling me to make payments, transfer money between accounts and it’s great it’s linked to my Barclaycard too Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Good service and excellent customer service

Very satisfied great customer service and excellent service Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Always ready to help

Barclays is providing a very efficient and fast service, both walk in or online services. I have contacted through the chat app so many times (also in the weirdest hrs..) and they always have been helpful. I truly recommend their services. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Great service but no overdraft for international students

I am very happy with the service especially compared to other banks: as an international student in London, the terms and conditions for opening accounts on other banks were either too complicated or didn't allow me to open an account at all. With Barclays it was easy. One thing I wasn't happy about though was when I needed a £50 overdraft for a time period of one week I wasn't able to get it because of the conditions for international student accounts. But otherwise great service. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Excellent service.

There is always someone to help when required. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Really easy and connvineant to use

It is such an easy banking app, so easy to make transfers and look at previous transactions, being able to freeze your card is brilliant especially if you don’t want to spend any money, or if you loose it of course. Such a brilliant app and bank company so glad I changed from my previous bank account. Staff are also so helpful in the bank if you ever need any guidence. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Best banking app

So easy to use, great interface, never fails me, always updates me on any downtime scheduled for the future well in advance, fantastic app. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018
