Review of the Lloyds Bank, Classic Account:

Lloyds Bank refuses my payments by bank transfers.

Lloyds Bank refuses my payments by bank transfers. to my builder and to a financial institution at the branch. I had my passport with me. They asked me a lot of questions that were inappropriate.. They are mental and treated me as a criminal. I wasted one hour each time there and in the end they refused to do the transaction. They also blocked my account on one of these transfers. They are abusing their power. Reviewed on: 21st December 2024

Disappointed

Seems like they are on a different planet. Keeping my old records and stubborn like a kid. Not looking in to present condition. I tried to explain but they were not ready to listen. Case is with ombudsman. Let’s see whether they can land on our planet with financial ombudsman’s help and reasoning. Why on earth they decide unprofessionally and call it as company policy. Sounds even worse. But I love to educate them not to treat another one like me in the future with their automated messages. Reviewed on: 10th March 2022

Best bank in UK

I can't explain how important it was for me and my family to become Lloyd's customers. We recently arrived from Canada to work on an assignment and needed a bank account. Lloyd's bank was the only bank to provide a hassle-free, efficient and fast service. The account, the app and the staff are all fantastic. No matter who wins, Lloyd's will always be the #1 bank for our family in UK. Reviewed on: 8th March 2022

Worst customer service ever in Coventry City Centre

Worst customer service ever in Coventry City Centre. For 7th time I'm going there to open a bank account and everytime was different document that they asked me for, I've paid 30 pounds to get a legit document from my GP to proof my address because they didn't accept my gas bill statement. Even with this legit document from my gp they couldn't open a bank account. Because was a different person from yesterday, every day different person from this bank want from me different document and for now I still don't have a bank account... Reviewed on: 5th March 2022

It's ok

They don't warn you If something has come out of your bank until a few days later. There online banking is always going down for maintenance and the online banking stuggles to recognise that its connected to the Internet. Reviewed on: 19th February 2022

Splendid Service

The service is Splendid and much is done to educate and inform about fraud. Reviewed on: 18th February 2022

Efficient

I've banked with Lloyds for years and I am impressed by how their phone app works and the speed that it allows me to transfer money. Reviewed on: 2nd February 2022
