Jolly good

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

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

Having worked at various banks in IT I am happy with Lloyds Reviewed on: 13th March 2021

Poor VFM, too many emails, good website & app

2
Poor interest rates, but what do you expect from a bank. Poor ethos generally I'd say if my experience in claiming back missold PPI was anything to go by. It's coloured my perceptions of them ever since! Way too many marketing emails. The app is great, it's easy to use and feels secure. Website is good, and recently updated so you can easily access past statements within a given timeframe. Reviewed on: 4th March 2021

Always helpful
