Improved massively, still room for more.

Lloyds have improved massively, but before the pandemic they were a bit of a mess, specifically in their anti-fraud triggers going off CONSTANTLY and bricking my cards, Apple Pay etc. It’s better now - although I’ve switched to using PayPal debit instead through the same systems. Also their credit card benefits aren’t great, they expire after 1 year when the card lasts for 3+ (e.g. no international fees). Cashback offers are new but have to be manually activated in the app, not great when it could be automatic. Being a longtime customer doesn’t really count for much. BUT they are generally reliable, give money as compensation when they screw up, and their customer service are generally in the U.K. which I LOVE. Reviewed on: 28th April 2026

Lloyds is a great bank. I have been with them for 10 years and have had no issues. Customer service is great and are always helpful both in store and online. The app is easy to use and the features of cash back are great Reviewed on: 20th April 2026

No issues whatsoever

Had this account for the past 11/12 years, no issues whatsoever. Customer service has always been helpful, new cards have been issued quickly, app is very easy to navigate and laid out clearly Reviewed on: 17th April 2026

My experience has been decent, nothing extraordinary to be honest. Interest rates could be higher, competitors have much higher interest rates and bro banks have such intuitive features. It would help to have pots like Monzo that payments could be made out of. Reviewed on: 17th April 2026
