Great app/online service

Barclays are a good bank to work with. Their app and online banking services are great. At a grass roots level highstreet banking is poor with not enough branches about. I know they have a cheque payment facility on the app but higher value cheques still need a branch to pay them into. Reviewed on: 24th December 2019
