The quick to act when you have an issue Reviewed on: 23rd February 2022

Best bank in the country

I have been with Barclays over about 15 years. Never any problems and their App is superb helping with anything. Reviewed on: 19th February 2022

Very good

I very appreciate for this time because bank make money for me Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

Great Bank account

Great service since I opened an account with them Reviewed on: 12th February 2022

Happy and pleased.

I have a good overall experience with my bank (Barclays). I have found that if i have issues with them i can easily contact them online for help. In terms of loan/mortgage, i am happy with my overall deal and the expectations that come with it. The bank is one of the last few to still have a branch opened in my town and is conveniently located for us. Reviewed on: 11th February 2022

CUSTOMER SERVICE

Quite simply I am never disappointed whether on the phone or in the bank. I am always met with a willingness to help and polite disposition. Customer service is sometimes under-rated but good/excellent customer service is vital. Reviewed on: 11th February 2022

Top service and top apps

You have everything you need and they are easy to contact. Never had an issue. All the stuff is free to use, what more could you want. Reviewed on: 10th February 2022

Excellent customer service

My local brand is friendly and helpful specially Helen with opening my account and helping me sort out my RAC insurance cover Reviewed on: 8th February 2022

Used to be great

I have held a Barclays bank account since I was a child and I have never had any issues with them at all. Services have always been good their web and mobile banking is super simple to use. However, they are closing branches all over the general area and my high street branch is now closed. The one the next town over is closed. If I need to make an in bank visit it would mean driving almost an hour to get to a branch now. Very sad. Reviewed on: 7th February 2022

Ongoing high service

I've been a Barclays customer for 40 years. They've supported me through this time through personal loans and a mortgage, plus an overdraft. Although there are banks offering incentives to switch, I'm not tempted. Barclays remain my trusted banking partner Reviewed on: 30th January 2022
