Review of the Nationwide, FlexAccount:

Moral but largely ineffective

5
Nationwide have again sent out notification that selected customers will be receiving £100. This is an interesting way for a building society to reward customers, especially as the interest rates are very low to non-existent. Nationwide is trustworthy to my mind, but probably not the right choice for anyone trying to be savvy about money. Their lack of branches near me (in a busy urban area) is a big failing sadly.

Several different options on how to use my accounts. including, whcih i think is very important, being able to go into branch and speak face to face wigth a rreal person Reviewed on: 10th October 2024

Overly complicated application process, it felt like.

Overly complicated application process, it felt like. Looked to join given the good reports on rates, new branding and adverts, but despite a new brand the process and provisions still felt archaic. So much paperwork, slow to send card, unnecessary pay-in rules. Just a waste of time and the credit search in my opinion. Reviewed on: 18th September 2024

Happy that my current account is with a mutual society so I get better value from my accounts Reviewed on: 14th September 2024

Very supportive and great customer servicev

When I’ve had any problems such as people scamming, nationwide have been superb with the support they give which makes you feel safer. Being scammed is intrusive and it helps to have the banks support. They also have recently given members payments of £100 which is brilliant Reviewed on: 6th September 2024

Over 30 years in Nationwide and no problems

Been with Nationwide for over 30y and never had a problem with Current a/c or Mortgage services. Experience was seamless even when living abroad. Only gripe is their poor savings rates. Reviewed on: 25th August 2024

Great service

DO NOT EVEN CONTEMPLATE SWITCHING TO THIS BANK Was offered £200 to switch my current account to Nationwide. With hindsight if I had been offered £500 I wouldn't have switched. A flawed IT system not recognising pass numbers, a phone system which sometimes allows telephone banking and sometimes does not, customer service staff who hang up on you, days spent without access to account on mobile. For heavens sake stay away. Reviewed on: 20th August 2024

Super service

Love the fact that Nationwide is still a building society (and the benefits such as member payouts). Super app and easy to work with. Reviewed on: 2nd August 2024

Home card reader in 2024

3
I cannot believe they still have the home card reader despite their tripplw factor authentication. No other bank (inlcuding HSBC, Santander, Chase, Starling, Revolut) uses card readers to verify payments. I can get better interest in my Chase account 5.1% so want to move all money out but can’t use their card reader. Otherwise Nationwide are pretty good. They have a mutual fund release every year so they pay you to bank with them, although I’d prefer a higher interest rate on savings! App is clunky and doesn’t give information / product details on current product / hard to view statements Reviewed on: 30th July 2024
