Impossible to close bank account

1
I called may 8th to get my bank account closed. They closed it. I called on May 12th because I didn't understand why I still could log into my online banking, they told me it would be deleted In a month. I called on June 14th asking why I still could log in to my bank, she couldn't find my information and I didn't have my account number to give her. I received my monthly statement by post mail (sent may 10th 2 days after my bank account was closed) I was hoping it was a confirmation that my bank was closed, no it was a statement fee of 0 pound....why do I still receive that?? Called June 24th now with my account and sort code since I just got a letter, the lady found my information and said that the bank account was closed for sure but she couldn't help me to close down my online banking.

The best bank there is

5
I have had an account with lloyds bank from the age of 17 and I have never been let down by them. I have had loans and I currently have a credit card with them and the interest rates are very fair and almost everything can be done via the app or online which is very handy for me. Reviewed on: 14th June 2021

Very trustworthy and loyal and helpful to customer

5
I feel more secure with them, then help in difficult time and think about customer Reviewed on: 14th April 2021

Good banking

5
Never had any issue while dealing with Lloyds however i would say more quick response on chat would add an extra start for Lloyds service. Reviewed on: 14th April 2021

Easy to use App and help

5
Lloyds have a far easier to use virtual service app which has been fantastic in the pandemic when I have wanted to use less face to face services Reviewed on: 10th April 2021

Jolly good

5
I was a Lloyds customer for many years throughout my time at college and university. Unfortunately, I had a bad experience in 2012, and I decided to close down my accounts and move elsewhere. Last year, seeing as they're the only bank who still has a branch in my hometown, I re-opened a current account and savings account with them. I am impressed with the ease of use that their app offers, and love the Save The Change feature to help me to save more money. Reviewed on: 27th March 2021

I like loyds because is simple to use and is safe Reviewed on: 22nd March 2021

Bank charges during a pandemic

1
I was made redundant in July because of covid and have been on universal credit since then, Lloyds seems to think it's acceptable to charge 88p a day for using my overdraft when I don't have a job to get out of my overdraft then charges take me over the overdraft limit which then charges me even more, I can't believe they are profiting from my misery, this is making a difficult situation even worse and I don't know how much longer I can cope with it, my mental health is really suffering and only a matter of time before I commit suicide :( Reviewed on: 22nd March 2021

Best bank with helpful friendly staff and a user friendly service

5
I’ve been with many banks but Lloyds takes the cake. As soon as I walked into branch to sort out my account I was greeted by friendly smiling staff, who helped me in every way they could. Sorted out my account and helped me use their excellent online and mobile banking. Would definitely recommend over any other bank. Reviewed on: 20th March 2021
