Most friendly people.

All the staff in my local Barclays branch are so friendly and helpful. They're always nice to the large amount of elderly in the community and the children, including my own. They are always well informed about all of the services they can offer and give advice I trust. Reviewed on: 12th February 2016

Reliable and grown with me

I've had a bank account with Barclays since I was a teenager, they adapted the account when I went to university and now I'm working , it comes with great perks such as travel insurance and car breakdown cover which I always use! Also mobile phone insurance. In branch staff are very friendly and helpful Reviewed on: 10th February 2016

Many banks claim to put their customers'interest first but for Barclays, it is more than mere profession - it is a culture.

Many banks claim to put their customers’ interests first. However, for Barclays, it is more than mere profession – it is a culture. Over three centuries, Barclays has provided generations of its customers good company, and will remain a constant friend in prosperity and adversity because it has a unique way of feeling the pulse of its customers.

Not the greatest customer service

It took me 45 minutes to find out why I had an extra £200 in my bank account, I was passed to advisor after advisor, it was harrowing to say the least. Reviewed on: 8th February 2016
