Barclays Current account reviews (4920)

great online banking

really love the online banking both on the desktop and on the app, clear, easy to use and really user intuitive. Reviewed on: 30th January 2018

Overall good!

I have banked with Barclays for a long time. Overall I find the services available pretty good. Online banking and the app is easy to use and convenient. I don't like the changes in the branch a huge amount, for example - if you want to actually speak to someone there is a long wait/need an appointment. That said it's fairly infrequent for me Reviewed on: 29th January 2018

Account

Always keep me updated y text or email with my account Reviewed on: 26th January 2018

Useful account

Banked with them for many years. Service has generally improved. Their online and app services are particularly useful Reviewed on: 25th January 2018

SERVICE

PROVIDE THE RIGHT PRODUCTS TO SUIT INDIVIDUAL CUSTOMERS Reviewed on: 25th January 2018

Good Service

I have been doing my everyday banking with Barclays for a few years and never had any problems with them. They are quick, easy and always up to date with the newest technology. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2018

total quality

never had a problem they couldny deal with Reviewed on: 23rd January 2018

Always been reliable

Online experience very easy and secure. The online branches are understaffed at times. Reviewed on: 20th January 2018

Over use of Call Centre Staff in India

Big improvement in mobile and Internet app, which are very good. My main irritation is over use of support staff based in India, often with poor language skills and lack of training. Charges can be high too. Not a bank that I have confidence in and I always feel that the customer is very much at the bottom of the list. Reviewed on: 19th January 2018

Good, but there are better, but a good Mobile App

I have always been lukewarm about Barclays. I guess it is typical of the big banks in that their attitude to customers is not particularly helpful or consistent. I am also constantly irritated by customer service often being dealt with somewhere in India, where in many cases I cannot understand the pronunciation. They online banking and mobile app has vastly improved, but the Apple Watch app is useless! I no longer use Barclays as my main account, preferring to use one of the new app based banks instead (Starking and Monzo). Reviewed on: 19th January 2018
