Not Great

The online banking and App are great and would get 5 stars, but the Banking experience when you actually have to phone is so poor I wouldn't recommend. Reviewed on: 14th November 2017

Good Service.

Staff in branches are usually friendly and helpful; their smartphone app is very useful to keep on top of your bank balances and payments on the go! Reviewed on: 14th November 2017

Hmmm Thinking of Switching

I've been a loyal Barclays customer for many years. It's now been 4 times I've rung up about getting a statement that never arrived. So I think the time has come to change my bank. Reviewed on: 13th November 2017

I’ve been with Barclays all my life, the accounts been adequate. I like the cash back option on online spending. The app is good. Loans are expensive. Not much perk for continuing customers, majority of rewards for new customers. Reviewed on: 10th November 2017
