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

Fully embraced on-line and Barclay's App

5
I find my on-line account easy to use and convenient. If I have any problems I can message Barclay's via my account and I will receive a helpful reply within a day. Similarly my Barclay's phone app is easy to use and convenient on the go. And if I have time to visit a branch they always so helpful. Reviewed on: 19th November 2017
