I cannot find the smallest fault with my bank.Their competent staff are always on hand to assist at my local branch and on the few occasions I have required assistance it has been provided promptly and expertly. Hats off ! Reviewed on: 12th February 2016

like a normal bank, nothing special. No rewards.

I have been with Barclays for 15 years, never had a reward and never had any special treatment. Contacting the call centre is a nightmare as they are not easy to understand and you get passed back and forth, I try and avoid it. Reviewed on: 12th February 2016

Most friendly people.
