Good overall, could do better

I've been banking with Barclays since 2007 and i have to say that generally speaking, they have given me what i've needed in terms of banking facilities over the last 11 years. i've had business bank accounts also when i've been self employed. However, from a customer service perspective i feel they could do better. When i scheduled an appointment with my account manager for an account review because i was struggling, still am, her advice was to 'find a rich boyfriend'. Not at all helpful and quite patronising. I work extremely hard and have raised my family by myself since my husband died. That for me was utterly ridiculous to hear that kind of talk from a professional. I won't be giving up my lunch breaks again in a hurry for that kind of advice. As it currently stands, i am trying to avoid an IVA or possible bankruptcy so telling me to 'find a rich boyfriend' just told me that this woman really didn't care. You would have thought she would be going out of her way to assist me to avoid such action. I stay with Barclays for convenience, not for the outstanding customer service.

Great app

Love the Barclays app it’s so easy to use and so convenient, simple to keep on top of your money! Would highly recommend to family and friends Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Very good

Instant balance, the best banking app Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Money monitoring in the palm of your hands

After using numerous banking apps, Barclays is by far the best. It sticks with a concise theme which makes it pleasing to the eye, the font is easy to read and the app itself is amazingly easy to navigate. Explanations are details should you need them throughout and the new added function of freezing your card should it be lost, stolen (or you’ve splurged a little too much) is absolutely amazing. I’m forever recommending the Barclays app along with Pingit to my friends and family! Reviewed on: 7th December 2018
