Barclays Current account reviews (4953)

Banking game-changer

5
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!

5
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.

Mobile app

This app is so easy to use and very intuitive. It helps me day to day to keep track of my spending without having to visit a bank branch or login to a website. It looks great too! Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

The Only Bank You Need.

5
I've used other banks before and had terrible service to constant failures to get anything done in a timely manner, the last 10 years with Barclays has been a pleasure, one less thing I need to worry about, My Bank Account (Debit), my online only Savings Accounts (+ISA), Credit Card, Loans, Travel Insurance, Gadget Insurance and Mortgage are all through Barclays, not once have I regretted it, I have recommended them to family and several of them now have services with Barclays.

Mobile app

5
I take my personal security very seriously and I have always been a little wary of using banking apps on my phone. What I love about the Barclays mobile app is that I can check my balance and freeze/unfreeze my debit card with a simple tap on my phone screen. I would never use a banking app like "apple pay" to pay for items in a store, but you can loose your wallet or purse at any time without noticing and the fact that when you do notice you can freeze your debit card and limit the damage is really appealing to me. The Barclays banking app is so easy to use I would recommend it to every Barclays customer. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018
