Mostly fine

I’ve had Barclays for a little while now. Cash deposits are awkward compared to a branch. The core experience is good but phone support is missing. Fine for now.

Verified with a recent statement.

Support is impossible to reach

Used Barclays as my only account, big mistake. Getting a human in chat took days of bot loops. My account was suddenly locked for a “review” for over a week. Hope they fix this soon. Friend recommended it to me.

Avoid if you rely on it

I was a happy Barclays customer until recently. Funds were held during a transfer with no explanation. My account was suddenly locked for a “review” for over a week. Cannot recommend right now.

Confirmed as an active customer.

Everything just works

A friend recommended Barclays to me. Free ATM withdrawals abroad saved me a fortune. Exactly what I needed. Switched from a traditional provider.

Switched and never looked back

I’ve banked with Barclays for over a year now. Support actually answered me within minutes in chat. Real-time notifications on every transaction are brilliant. Highly recommend. Used across two countries so far.

Works, but pricey

I’ve had Barclays for a little while now. Cash deposits are awkward compared to a branch. App is occasionally slow to load balances. Good, but room to improve. Setup took less than ten minutes.

Best banking app I’ve used

Use Barclays as my main account. Sub-accounts make budgeting effortless. Account opening was fully digital and took minutes. Exactly what I needed. Used across two countries so far.
