Minus 5 Stars incompetent and a wast of a month

1. Wednesday 26/6. Start application online, the business section of internet banking screen stated no connection. I started the application over the phone and it just too much information to digest in phone call. I did not understand the my wife's significance in starting the application , what I do recall is 2 forms of ID for her. I thought at that point the application had started 2. Friday 28/6 I got an email stating the application was delayed so I called Llyods and was in queue for over 20 minutes as the robot kept putting me club Llyods. When I got through about 4 50pm I got sent a pin via phone to open the account and the I saw the screen "Ooops a problem our side" 3. Saturday 29/6 I got to Llyods bank they cannot do anything for phone applications and it takes 2 weeks to cancel, you couldn't make this up if you tried but it get worse 4. Thursday 4/I called Llyods and then they asked for another ID for my wife and then told it takes longer for business account to open foreign share holder, which was not mentioned in the first phone call 5 .Monday 8/July, Called Llyods they asked for another ID for my wife , sheepishly for the by the advisory . 200 quid on notary's bearing in mind this has to come from Thailand I submitted the 4th ID 11/July 6 Monday 15/July asked for Lawyers website or screen shot of lawyer website 7 Thursday 18/ July asked for link to lawyers website which was on the screenshot I sent 8 . Monday 11/July told link would not work told them a screenshot 2 weeks ago cancelled application Reviewed on: 25th July 2019

A example of one of its senior managers behaviour

Michael Huke a senior manager at Lloyds Bank HQ Bristol, a record of his nefarious activities, each reported to Lloyds Bank and Avon and Somerset police where applicable, NO action has been taken by either party. Please view ‘Michael Huke’ on YouTube and witness his disgraceful conduct. 1. CCTV of Michael Huke shouting abuse and videoing his neighbours within their premises. 2. Assaulting neighbours physically and verbally, captured on CCTV and audio. 3. Offensive and unlawful TEXTs sent by Michael Huke…….. a) TEXT ‘My secretary gives me a blow job when I’m allocating bonuses b) TEXT ‘Kompany and Fernandinho (Manchester City footballers) are Northern black c*nts’. c) TEXT ‘Antonio Horta Osario (Lloyds Bank CEO) has no balls because he was off sick at the priory for 6 months’ suffering from a nervous breakdown. d) TEXT claiming ‘He would wind up 2 neighbours (he was hostile towards) so much, he would let them Twat him and get them done’. Plus more TEXTs of a similar grossly offensive nature. 4. When asked by friends the wealth of a landlord neighbour (that he was in conflict with), he answered ‘neither the landlord or his wife bank with Lloyds Banking Group and never have had accounts with us’. Within his ‘position of trust’ how did he determine that information, had they banked with Lloyds he would surely have probed their accounts? 5. He was prosecuted, when caught on covert CCTV, watching his dog defecate outside a neighbour’s property and not clear it up. 6. He signed an ABC (Acceptable Behaviour Contract) issued to him by South Gloucestershire Council ASBO team. 7. Attacked a 71 year old man because he’d parked briefly on the road outside his house; captured on CCTV, video/audio recorded and independently witnessed (view on YouTube). 8. The 71 year old victim of the attack and one of the witness’s (who’d videoed the attack) were arrested and held in custody (several months after the video of the attack had been uploaded onto YouTube, (by persons unknown), charged with uploading the video, (which was factual and not menacing in character) as it discredited Michael Huke in front of his staff and jeopardised his job at Lloyds Bank HQ Bristol. No charge was pursued. This arrest was almost certainly influenced by Lloyds Banking Group, Freemasons, a police sergeant friend who lives nearby or corrupt members of Avon and Somerset Police, possibly a combination of them all. Since the above he works from home one or two days each week spending time at the sports centre and maintaining his property and garden! These incidents plus many more have taken place over a 3 year period; all reported to Lloyds Banking Group, yet Michael Huke is still an employee of Lloyds Bank? You’re views, opinions, advice would be greatly appreciated. Reviewed on: 15th July 2019

2 Business banking website failures in 3 days during application

Starting the application the business section had no connection. Too much to digest over the phone 2 days later a delay to the application flag came up . I said quite clearly to the robot on the other end of the phone "Business banking" and was put through to a club Llyods . Eventually I got to an advisory. I asked for and pin sent to my phone and when I put it typed into the the box and the site was down . A wasted 3 days of an application now I will miss the pay cycles and I wont get for another 4 weeks, Useless and unprofessional steer clear. I will be closing both Llyods accounts Reviewed on: 6th July 2019

Avoid this bank!

Bad experience! I had a fraud last week and I lost £398 that the bank doesn’t want to refund me. I don’t deserve this treatment! The bank didn’t protect my account, didn’t send me messages advising about fraud. Reviewed on: 12th March 2019

If you need a business account quick keep away!!

Applied for a business account online at the beginning of December. I thought nice and easy, upload the documents an will be done in no time. How wrong i was! As of 12-Feb-more than 2 months later- still dont have an account! I can't even count how many times i called them as they kept moving the goal post and despite of every time i provided everything they asked for they came up with new things they need.
