Review of the Barclays, Current account:

Best high street banking app

The barclays app is the most user friendly out there and the features available are those which cannot be matched at the moment. Further their savings rates remain competitive Reviewed on: 4th June 2024

amazing service

fab customer service problems delt with straightaway with ease Reviewed on: 21st December 2017

Awesome bank and great customer service! Would recommend!

I've been using Barclays for 10+ years now and it has been great, would definitely recommend. Reviewed on: 21st December 2017

Best Banking App on the Market

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

Excellent Barclays since forever

I've been with Barclays for nearly 25 years now and have always received excellent service. Reviewed on: 19th December 2017

Excellent Services

In my local Barclays Branch the staff are exceptionally friendly, helpful and courteous. They make me feel like a valued customer and go above and beyond to help customers. Reviewed on: 14th December 2017

My Hero Bank

Barclay's Bank makes me feel comfortable and valued each time I visit their bank. Their customer service is exquisite and their products are easy to understand. I always feel at home with them. Reviewed on: 12th December 2017

Great service

Great service good products , good online service Reviewed on: 11th December 2017

Good Tech Poor Customer Service

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

Helpful in branch but extortionate charges

Staff are generally helpful and friendly, but their charges are extortionate. Reviewed on: 3rd 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
