Best Mobile Banking App Around

5
The Mobile Banking App from Barclays is continually being improved and now is the main way in which i undertake online banking. The additions to functionality solve real issues (such as being able to temporarily block the card's use) rather than add something for the sake of doing so. The integration with other apps is great and having all your accounts (from different banks) on show is really helpful Reviewed on: 7th December 2018
