Brilliant bank

My family have been members of Barclays for years. Their customer service is of great quality and they always have someone on the end of the phone to talk to. Any issues are solved quickly and without any extra hassle. The online banking system that they use is extremely efficient and easy to use. 100% would recommend. Reviewed on: 9th February 2020

Been outstanding since I joined, feel really looked after. Their Blue Rewards is great & have accumulated a bit up to now. I was with a different bank for years which I liked however Barclays are far superior in every way conceivable - I'm glad I changed. Reviewed on: 8th February 2020

Loyalty

Been with them for 40 years, no problems so far. Reviewed on: 8th February 2020

Well thought out range of functionality

5
The app and the website both allow users to perform a wide range of tasks and it's a pleasure to want to do something very specific, and finding that the Barclays team have preempted their customers needs and developed it. Huge range of functionality vs other banks. Reviewed on: 8th February 2020
