The Most unhelpful bank

1
I have banked with Barclays for over 10 years and anytime I have needed help with any matter they have never helped not even tried to help resolve any issues I have had I would never recommend them to anyone The only reason I still bank with them is because it is the closest bank to we’re I live and if need to deposit money into the account it’s only a five minute drive to the most unhelpful bank I have ever came across Reviewed on: 6th November 2018
