No problem banking

5
I've been with Barclays since I was a child. My parents banked with them too and there has never been a problem. Whatever has happened in our lives, if we have needed their help it has been provided. Even during the most difficult times of bereavement, they have taken all the stress and worry away and dealt with everything for us. Reviewed on: 8th November 2018
