Lloyds bank is amazing

5
Services offered by this bank are extremely helpful. I have never been upset with anything and I have learnt more by banking with Lloyds for 3 years now. The customer service is amazing and students are guided very smoothly through the process of creating a bank account. I really enjoy banking with them. Reviewed on: 27th September 2016

Reliable, the 'Good Friend' of banks

5
Staff are knowledgeable and always on hand to answer questions professionally and with technical language that is appropriate to each and every person. As a recent graduate, I have been able to get into contact with the bank regarding my account and they have been able to give me advice and support. I have always had a Lloyds Bank account and I would not consider changing. They are trustworthy and reliable, just like an old friend. Reviewed on: 30th June 2016

loyalty

5
I have been with Lloyds bank since leaving school 35 years ago and have been happy with the service I have received since then. I have always received good service and have never considered moving banks and don't imagine I will. Reviewed on: 20th June 2016

Disgusted & Dissapointed

1
When I opened my bank account I specifically said that I don't want any over draft facilities. I have since then moved from the UK to the USA and have not kept an eye on the balance of the account. I made an order online using my Lloyds account, assuming that I had cash in there, the payment went through no problemo. 3 months later I check the account to find that on that payment (which was a birthday Cake for my gran- the name on the payment was CAKES) I had overdrawn by 47.25! I was shocked to find my account in debt as I was under the impression that that wasn't possible and I had not received any communication from the bank (I was not at the address specified and my mobile number had changed, but surely when they realized this they should have tried email?- they cannot say that they exhausted all communication channels! and even so, if they couldn't reach me, why did they allow the transaction to go through?). So, I phoned Lloyds and asked who allowed the transaction to go though and the response was comical, "Well Miss, we never know whether its an emergency so we let it go through a reviewing process and then accept or decline if we think its an emergency or not". Surely "CAKES" doesn't sound like an emergency? Since going into "Unplanned Over Draft" of 47.25 pounds, I have now had to pay 250.59 pounds with all the "fees" that come along with unplanned over draft. Needless to say I have pulled the plug with Lloyds and shall not recommend them to anyone as I would never want someone who isn't able to pay off the debt, to get into a situation like this. Lloyds, you are a company that is willingly helping our country and people run into Debt that is beyond reparable. LLoyds, I'm disappointed and disgusted Reviewed on: 14th June 2016
