Lloyds Bank; Rockin' Retro Reliability with Style!

5
I've been with Lloyds Bank for many years. You could class them as a 'retro' bank. However, they're rockin' retro reliability with style. Their classic account is free and has most things you want and need. They do offer a wide selection of bank accounts. They could introduce savings pots but savings accounts are available. They also provide ISAs and a good range of credit cards. Their internet banking is straightforward, clean looking and is easy to navigate. Setting up payments and direct debits is easy, as is checking your statements. You can also retrieve your pin, freeze your cards, as well as a whole host of other things. I have found Lloyds to be reliable for over 20+ years; I got my first account with them when I was 16. I can't see a reason to switch! Reviewed on: 24th May 2024

Avoid them like the plague

The worst bank I have ever used with very poor customer service. They froze my account when I received my first salary on it, due to and administration error on their side... but they did not communicate this to me in any form (email, phone, etc), just simply froze it. When I went in to find out what happened the bank tellers was rude and unhelpful, almost treating me like a criminal and told me to come back in 2 weeks time. I challenged her that I will not leave until I get my money back even if means to closing down my account, and voila suddenly there was an open slot to come back the next day. When I arrived then, a very cheerful supervisor told me "hahaha we froze your account, because we made a mistake copying your legal documents, so funny!". Yeah, really funny when you have to pay rent in 2 days and cannot access your money. I stayed with them for 2-3 years despite this, but everytime I entered the bank they had the same "what do you want now?" attitude. Reviewed on: 21st April 2024
