Nationwide FlexAccount reviews (933)

User friendly, life long customer .

In most high streets where there are no banks. Internet banking is very user friendly and experienced very few, if any problems. Reviewed on: 14th December 2019

Disappointed with charges

3
I banked with Nationwide for about 11 years, until very recently. The service I’ve received from Nationwide has always been good, and the staff in branch are always great, but the charges levied on my account were ridiculous. I’m self employed with no fixed pay date, so I’m a typical month I was being charged around £60 for missing direct debits. I understand the reasoning, but the amount is ridiculous. As a result I’ve fallen behind on my bills, had more charges and so on. I’m reluctant to recommend Nationwide based on this. Reviewed on: 14th December 2019

Friendly and convenient

5
I moved from another bank because of increasingly poor and distant service. I couldn’t be happier with the move. A smaller company, better service and a more personal interaction. Exactly what I was missing at my last bank. Reviewed on: 12th December 2019

Offers a comprehensive package with travel insurance, mobile phone insurance and a nice small credit every month. Great customer service too Reviewed on: 2nd December 2019

No problems

I have never had a problem with Nationwide. They are very zealous about card security and have blocked my cards when scammers have managed to get my details. The only reason I don’t give them 5 stars is because their customer service on the phone can be a tad slow. It also has the annoying automated thing you have to talk to. Also it’s hard to find the customer service number on their website; they obviously want you to try online customer service options first. But this is annoying when you know your issue can only be dealt with over the phone. Reviewed on: 29th November 2019

No reward for loyalty

3
Been a customer for several years but doesn’t count for anything. Such low rate of interest even with loyalty Reviewed on: 27th November 2019

Great account for personal banking
