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
