........,,......................... Amazing Reviewed on: 3rd February 2020

Best facilities available

Clear and simple banking with fantastic services, particularly the online banking app Reviewed on: 3rd February 2020

A truly helpful bank

As a university student I have been with Barclays for over a decade now. Barclays helped me to set up my very first savings account ! Staff are always so helpful and friendly at my local branch. I love that barclays is so accessible for people with visible and not so obvious disabilities. The physical layout of each branch is just wonderful. Reviewed on: 2nd February 2020

Very good

Very good is bank is recommend my friend Reviewed on: 1st February 2020

24/7

Barclays Mobile Banking App is a star for me. Bank in your pocket, wherever, whenever. Top it all, Barclays Video Banking, all day, every day, not a customer service across the seven seas, but right here in England and a trained, professional personal banker at your service. Reviewed on: 29th January 2020

a pretty average uninspiring bank

Barclays bank is typical of most banks, they do not know me from adam, even though I am a so called premier customer, all they are bothered about is making money, they are reasonably efficient at that. I used to know my bank Manager and could go and talk to him, not any more, alas. They make it difficult to talk to staff and when they do it's in a foreign country. Reviewed on: 29th January 2020

Very happy with the service

Barclays App is very useful and simple! Always I had a great service Reviewed on: 29th January 2020

Safe

My number one priority when choosing a bank - is my money safe. If Barclays has proved something to me it's that my money is safe. Additionally any problems I've had with the bank have been sorted no more than 24-hours after I've complained. The maintenance notification is also very helpful. Reviewed on: 29th January 2020

Best bank

Barclays is the best bank in United Kingdom Reviewed on: 29th January 2020

Easy access, resilient, great rewards

Have been using the current account for almost a decade and never had a problem. The app offers all the services I need and it's easy to access and manage my account. Reviewed on: 29th January 2020
