The Laundry Shop in Kendal only takes one pound coins and they do not offer them in the shop, so I was told to go to a bank to exchange my pound notes for pound coins. When I arrived at Barclays Bank on the High Street and asked the teller to exchange my two twenty pound notes for 40 one pound coins, she asked if I had an account.I explained that I was a tourist and had just driven two and half hours to reach Kendal and I needed to do laundry. Since I did not have an account at Barclays, she told me in no uncertain terms that the bank policy did no allow her to exchange my notes for coins. So I asked to speak to a manager. The manager reiterated that the bank policy was to NOT to exchange money, notes for coins, to anyone that did not have an account at the bank.For an organization whose singular purpose for being is to exchange money, shame on Barclays for enacting such a stupid policy.

Super helpful staff, as efficient as the Barclays corporate machine allow them to be. Make daily banking for small local business as pleasant a chore as its possible to be. The local touch goes a long way to alleviating the frustration of dealing with a large bank.

Terrible service, appalling telephone banking, useless in branch contacts. 2 months to speak to someone!!!! What a joke outfit.

I know we have a great big problem with social distanceing.but "come on " Barclays,45 minute wait to get served,with people coming off the machines.in front of me,only to jump the queue I was already in...I think Barclays should reconsider scraping the machines to bring the personal service back to their customers

Barclays - funding the climate crisis by lending billions to finance the fossil fuel industry which is ruining our planet.

Great improvement - no long queues. I can just deposit cheques at the machine and get a receipt which copies the cheque and the paying in slip. All good.

The bank themselves and staff have always been great. Helpful and motivated. The bank has undergone a complete revamp and opened yesterday, I have to say the tired old Barclays of Kendal is now gone! They have instant cash machines that you can deposit up to 200 notes in and take out up to £2000 in one transaction straight from your debit card! Vast improvement I say. Place looks great too
