Barclays have been good to me I’ve been a loyal customer to them for over five years now and it would take something drastic for me to leave Reviewed on: 6th February 2020

Barclays is the one to beat!

5
I have banked with Barclays for over 25 years now, I rate them very highly as a bank. They text me if I'm about to enter my overdraft, to check if an online payment was made by myself and every time I set up a new payee they'll message me to verify before releasing the funds. They make me feel like my account is safe from fraud which is very reassuring to me. I also get amazing benefits from my Premier Bank Account; Breakdown cover, Travel insurance, Mobile Phone insurance and even six passes to Airport lounges! Reviewed on: 6th February 2020

Helpful through good times and bad
