The app is great really easy to use but if you have to speak to a real person their foreign call centres really let them down. Very poor service. Reviewed on: 8th December 2017

Perks

5
Over the moon with my joint account with my husband. We have the Tech Pack which covers our gadgets and phones, we have used the RAC cover several times we have had the unfortunate need to, Holiday insurance is a great added bonus and we even get BLUE rewards just for shopping! Have received great service from Barclays, have several other accounts and servies with them and and would highly recommend their services to anybody. Reviewed on: 29th November 2017
