Barclays Current account reviews (4940)

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

Convenient and secure!

Barclays is absolutely convenient for me, with a branch near my home and also not far from me. My online banking with Barclays is extremely convenient and i absolutely love the staff in my branch. Reviewed on: 22nd November 2018

Poor customer service

When I fell into financial difficulty following a relationship break up I found Barclays very unsupportive and they continuously added charges to an account with no money in only adding to my stressful situation Reviewed on: 22nd November 2018

Always Helpful

Every time I have an issue they're always immediately getting it resolved for me! Reviewed on: 22nd November 2018
