Barclays Premier Current Account reviews (97)

Best Bank For Young People

Barclays Bank are an exceptional institution that provides fantastic tools to manage your money, in the most convenient way, when compared to other banks. Their Credit Builder card (which I have recently been accepted for), is a great way to start building credit as a student, if you have not had a credit card before. Highly recommended to my friends.

Premier current account

Have had excellent service on every occasion that I have needed to contact them, no matter how small the query has been. After all the problems that banks have had in recent times , the service that I have received really surprises me. Credit where it deserves it, is my motto. Reviewed on: 23rd November 2018

Everything has been sorted the easiest way

There was a problem with Barclays as I contacted customer support by phone regarding change my personal account details. Operators were not able to access my account without telephone password. I made a complaint by email and very soon, maybe in 30 min someone from Barclays contacted me by phone to help me sort out this problem. Everything has been done extremely easy way with apologising and compensation from Barclays. I am a Barclays' customer since 2009 I think and I am absolutely satisfied with its service. Thank you Reviewed on: 22nd April 2018

Great customer service and a lot of rewards

It's very easy to reach the premier customer service and I love the daily perks like free coffee and cinema subscriptions Reviewed on: 11th February 2018

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

Simple to use

Online and apps simple and easy to use. Rewards are a good bonus Reviewed on: 7th February 2018

Benefits generally worthwhile.

Benefits are generally good though we have never had to claim on the travel insurance. We have used the RAC roadside assistance once and found it good. Reviewed on: 29th November 2017

Changed something that worked fine before

Changing the basis of the Premier banking service seems a thinly veiled way to increase the price. It has made a simple account more complex and less attractive. I'll continue with it, but think Barclays could have resisted the change or handled it better. Reviewed on: 1st February 2017
