Nationwide FlexDirect reviews (298)

Great current account

One of the best current accounts I have ever had. 5% on up to 2500 paid every month, also money for switching and recommending friends. Very clear online account and app. Overall great and outstanding customer service in branch. Reviewed on: 3rd February 2020

Good friendly bank

Nationwide has been good in the past but they have recently made some changes that have made them less competitive and less favourable to me such as changing bank account features and savings rates.. Also their app is more basic than others in the field. Reviewed on: 27th January 2020

Easy to use banking

Online banking is easy to use, now new payees can be set up on the app it’s even better. I like seeing all my account balances quickly in one place Reviewed on: 26th January 2020

Easy and High Interest

Opened a FlexDirect primarily to utilise the 5% on £2500 offer for new customers. It would be good to see better offers for existing customers however. Account opening was straightforward, initiated online and finalised in branch. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Great customer service

Reliable app that offers useful features. Great customer service when needed. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2020

Trustworthy building society

Trustworthy building society. Good interest in first £2500 Reviewed on: 16th January 2020

Well Worth It

Having been with Nationwide over 10years. I am safe to say I’m a member! Never any issues with my account. My card always works. And customer service is also good. Thank you for standing by me for so long. I’m here to stand by you too! Reviewed on: 15th January 2020

Nationwide head office customer service is disgusting.....talk to you like muck....if you complain you get a nasty letter.... Reviewed on: 5th January 2020
