Excellent app

All you need from an excellent app where ever you are in the world Reviewed on: 6th January 2020

Fantastic Bank

I have been with Barclays for 21 years, I have never had an issue and have found their service to always be of the highest caliber. Outstanding customer service and very easy to use online services. Have just taken out my first mortgage through Barclays too - highly recommended! Reviewed on: 6th January 2020

Simplicity and efficiency

Love the app! User experience is very good and the ability to pay in a cheque is so cool! Reviewed on: 6th January 2020

Quick, safe and easily accesible

I use the app quite often and I find it safe and reliable, especially the fingerprint login function. The layout is easy to follow and the interface in intuitive. Reviewed on: 6th January 2020

Good banking app

Good app with lots if functionality helps me to do my banking from home and out and about easily. Reviewed on: 5th January 2020

Never A Problem

From the app to the branch, everything is easy. Reviewed on: 5th January 2020

Bad Customer Service

I have always enjoyed good customer service until the last two years where they have been rude to me on the phone when I have been obviously upset about having issues with accessing my online or mobile banking. I also do not like the amount of paper that they waste sending me offers for credit cards and bank loans. Barclays tends to offer good products with better rates than some of the other banks on the market but I would rather get a slightly worse interest rate with another bank than put up with their unhelpfulness. Reviewed on: 5th January 2020

Plodding along

Fairly happy with them, but my needs are simple. Interest rate could be better on savings account but that applies to most banks. Online banking and app are easy to use. Reviewed on: 4th January 2020

Not happy

I can not get the same advise when I call or when I go into branch, your advisors semi to have conflicting manuals to work from. I have transferred 50000 on one occasion and now told I can only transfer 15000. I am totally lost! It is my money why are you treating me so badly. Reviewed on: 4th January 2020

Since I was 16, now 32. Wouldn't bank with anyone else

I opened my very first bank account with Barclays when I was 16. Now, double that age, I have never ventured from them having never needed too. My favourite thing is the app. It is so quick and easy to transfer funds between accounts, to send money to my friends and to clearly see my savings. Reviewed on: 3rd January 2020
