Barclays Current account reviews (4876)

Closing of an Account!

3
Deeply disappointed when Barclays closed my Additions Plus Account that I was more than happy with, due to the benefits, to an account I didn't get much choice about having, just because they were getting rid of the Additions Plus Account from their range! Reviewed on: 13th February 2017

Review of Current Account

5
Great blue reward scheme although the current account is not good if you are overdrawn regularly. Reviewed on: 13th February 2017

Good service, but hate the call centre

4
I am mostly impressed with Barclays since switching my main bank accounts a few years ago. I find the online banking easy to use, the staff in branch are friendly and helpful. My only problem is with the call centre staff who on occasion don't seem to fully understand the problem/query, or are just a bit cold and inflexible. Reviewed on: 12th February 2017

Standards of banking

1
Don't like these automated banking machines which are not always working I also feel banking hours should be open longer to suit the needs of people working the automated machines are not in my opinion very private and have put many people out of work Reviewed on: 12th February 2017

Amazing experiences

5
I've banked with Barclays for over 15 years and can honestly say their customer service is brilliant. No matter which branch I have attended they are all extremely helpful and I've never had to wait long to see an advisor. Reviewed on: 12th February 2017

Local Barclays Branch staff very helpful

4
I have been visiting my local branch of Barclays in Witney, Oxfordshire since 1979. Over that time I have seen the branch change with regard to size, services and number of staff. I can honestly say that no matter what the changes, the staff there have been, and are, always helpful and understanding. Reviewed on: 12th February 2017

Good long term option

4
The online banking is easy to navigate, I don't earn any interest but have been with them so long, it's easier to stay. Reviewed on: 12th February 2017
