Excellent and never had issues

I recently had an online account hacked. Luckily, I noticed quickly and rang Barclays to ask them to stop the payment. They acted fast, replaced my cards and the money never left my account. Reviewed on: 3rd January 2018

Never had a problem

Been an amazing bank to be with since I was 14 years old and i've never had a problem. Very understanding bank. Reviewed on: 1st January 2018

Have banked here for over a decade

I have banked with Barclays since I opened my first bank account at the age of 16 (20 years ago!) I wouldn't think about changing my account at all. I have never had a problem and always receive excellent customer service. I am especially pleased with the Barclays online banking option and the recent apps such as pingit and the Barclays banking app. Reviewed on: 1st January 2018

Still Ok for me

been with Barclays for 35 years now, no problems at all, so no need to move in my opinion Reviewed on: 1st January 2018

Always reliable

In over thirty yearts of banking I have never had a problem Reviewed on: 1st January 2018

Efficient service

I have had my account since 1973 and the Company has had a very consistent record of good service. I have never noticed any error over many years. Reviewed on: 1st January 2018

poor service

Whats the point of having an account if they have closed most banks in Norfolk and even one in Norwich? In the real world, people still need cheques to pay tradespeople who do not accept any cards, to pay at bars who do not accept cards, and with many village post offices closing too it is hard to find anywhere to pay in cheques - and most branches only have junior staff who are unable to deal with any problem or make their own deciiions. Barclays has forgotten what banks are for. Reviewed on: 1st January 2018
