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

Banking game-changer

Since using the Barclay's app in conjunction with our accounts, it's really made life easier. I can pay bills easily, transfer money between accounts instantly, and have everything accessible wherever I am. Genius. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

App is easy even for me!

I am not in anyway internet savvy and that means any website has to be easy to navigate. Luckily for me the Barclays app is really easy and after a lot of apprehension I tried the app and have never looked back with regard to monitoring my finances alongside transferring money to my children. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018
