Review of the Barclays, Premier Current Account:

Barclays Premier is excellent customer service

The Barclays premier service is very good, I can easily arrange a call back through the app and speak to a real UK based human for advice at any time. The rates aren't always the best but I retain the current account for this service as it's really invaluable. I also find the app really good compared to other banking apps.

Good clear trustworthy banking

I have been a happy customer for 30 years. Any correspondence is clear and relevant. The mobile app is regularly updated to include more services. I appreciate the rewards scheme too. Reviewed on: 26th March 2022

Great people no rewards

My personal banker is amazing but after the rewards system changed there is hardly any incentive to stay Reviewed on: 21st January 2022

Happy Customer

I can’t fault Barclays premier banking. Whether I’m using the app, online or phone banking or talking to my relationship manger I’m always impressed it all works brilliantly. Reviewed on: 28th March 2021

Trusted since childhood ..

I've banked with Barclays since I was a teen , that's a long time. I cant say I've had any issues , and I find the Premier service to be great. I use the online app almost every day and it is really good. Reviewed on: 20th January 2020

Good Service

Good service and the odd bottle of free wine Reviewed on: 24th November 2019

Amazing attention to detail

Nothing is ever a problem. Monthly calls to check they are doing everything they can to help. They phoned me today to let me know if I transferred my savings to a different type of account I could gain more interest! I already have my savings with them!! Reviewed on: 20th November 2019

Excellent delighted fast

Very happy customer . Smart app, rewards. Excellent A* service Reviewed on: 19th November 2019

Best local high street bank for me

One of the best high street bank, have never fault the service nor have i had any issues. Compared to most people who like to complain just for the sake of it. Especially the Mobile Banking functions, can choose to open accounts with just a tap which is very convenient! Reviewed on: 5th February 2019
