Review of the Barclays, Premier current account:

Very happy but a little guilty

5
We have taken up premier banking when offered to us. However, I feel really quite guilty in terms of being offered to be first in the queue if we call. What is this about? We are really happy with Barclays but this seems injust. Reviewed on: 11th February 2018
