Best Banking App on the Market

5
I’ve used the majority of the banking apps on the market and Barclays by far, has the best layout and integration into all accounts. They’ve packed so much into the App that the only reason for a physical branch is to deposit money. Been with them for around 7-8 years and never had a problem. Always less than two minute wait so speak to a member of the personal banking team. Reviewed on: 19th December 2017

Perks

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
