Review of the Barclays, Premier current account:

Very happy but a little guilty

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

Good solid offering with great customer service

The premier account provides a solid current account offering with excellent customer service which is key in successfully fulfilling the needs of busy customers. The account perks are a small added bonus. Reviewed on: 11th January 2019

Best Banking App

Barclays banking portal and smartphone app is head and shoulders above the competition. Reviewed on: 10th January 2019

Barclays has the best mobile banking application

The application is brilliant, which allows customers to access various useful products and services. Reviewed on: 7th January 2019

Barclays Mobile Banking App

The app is so easy to use. It's made my life much easier and I would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to simplify their banking experience. Reviewed on: 3rd January 2019

Great customer service and convenience

Our bank manager is Mike Hall, and he is the primary reason we've stayed at Barclays over the years. I like the convenience of having everything under one roof - the Barclays banking app give you a easy way to view what is happening across the various accounts. Reviewed on: 3rd January 2019

Great digitally focussed High Street bank

Moved to Barclays just under a year ago and the whole banking experience has been flawless. I work within IT & IT Security and I can honestly say that the Barclays App and the work that they do in the community (Digital Eagles / Info Security) is first rate. Reviewed on: 2nd January 2019

Excellent Banking App by Barclays

Its an easy and good customer experience using the Barclays Bank mobile app. I can do everything from there that I need on my account without having to log in on a PC. Lots of good additions and tweaks made every so often to improve it Reviewed on: 11th December 2018

Barclays Bank App

I have bank accounts with all the major banks, but the Barclays app is by far the clearest and easiest to use. Very well designed and consistently reliable. I use it for the vast majority of my day-to-day banking. Reviewed on: 9th December 2018
