Review of the Barclays, Current account:

Easy to open an account

I was a UK resident but not citizen recently arrived in the UK. I went to several banks to open an account but found them uninterested and unhelpful, except Barclays. Several years later I am still with them. Reviewed on: 15th February 2016

Helpful online banking services

I was a bit skeptical about the online banking facility at Barclays, but it has been really good. The security with the separate code checker is helpful and I can really track and manage my money. It's a stable site too. I'm so glad asa few branches local to me have closed. Reviewed on: 20th January 2020
