Only pros for me

4
I like this account because it works well and offers a few perks that you wouldn't expect as standard for a free account. Minor login issues for internet banking sometimes, but on the whole really impressed Reviewed on: 24th October 2014

Personalised debit card and SmartSpend makes this account stand out for me

I've had an account with Barclays for a while and find them to be friendly and efficient. I like that I could personalise my card with a picture of my kids (I find it makes me use it more as well!) I also like how the online benefits are getting better - the way to go. Pretty impressive for a free account Reviewed on: 22nd October 2014

No thrills account, but no issues

I don't use my current account that much, but when I do it works quite well. Overall content with this service Reviewed on: 12th October 2014
