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

Straightforward banking

I find everything about Barclays to be clear, simple and straightforward. The banking app is particularly easy to use, you can do just about everything you need to do in a few simple clicks. I also feel secure with Barclays, and trust them to provide me with all the help I need to avoid being scammed. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018
