FEES, POOR COMMUNICATION LESSEN THE EXPERIENCE

I WAS DE FRAUDED AND COULD NOT FIND A METHOD OTHER THAN PHONE TO COMMUNICATE WHICH WAS UNACCEPTABLE TO ME. IN ANOTHER INSTANCE THERE WAS AN INBOUND TRANSFER THAT APPEARED TO GET LOST FOR 48HRS. NATIONWIDES HELP BOTS AND EVENTUALLY PEOPLE COULD NOT HELP AND SIMPLY ADVISED TO WAIT & SEE Reviewed on: 23rd January 2026

Nationwide with guaranteed High Street presence

5
We have had our flex account for many many years. Its a free account and does exactly what we need it to, no frills, no cost. All.our pensions go in, all our bills come out direct debit.We can see our balance at a glance with the new quick app facility, and the new fraud protection where we can check if anyone from Nationwide is calling us, is so reassuring in these days of scammers. Plus the guaranteed High Street presence gives us piece of mind if we need help with anything. Our savings are also with them. Nationwide all the way for us Reviewed on: 23rd January 2026

Nationwide is ethical and shares profit with members

5
I changed to Nationwide because profits are given back to members. I know profits are not being used in war or climate destruction. In addition I received £100 bonus and every month I get interest and cash back. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2026

Excellent customer service

Been with them 40+ years never had one complaint Reviewed on: 22nd January 2026

I switched from NatWest to Nationwide.

5
I switched from NatWest to Nationwide a number of years ago because I wanted a more ethical banking service, and Nationwide are rated in the top 3 across a range of environmental, humanitarian and broader ethical criteria. I use the online banking service and it's very accessible and efficient, to the extent that I've never had cause to use telephone banking. My only complaint would be that I can't pay in at the Post Office, and my nearest branch is a drive away. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2026
