very smooth no bother in general

only letdown is not much incentivisation for basic account members, ive been a basic account holder for over 10 years and am still on same account last time i asked about moving to a normal account without looking into it i was told wouldnt happen, this was some 4 years ago and embarrasment prevents me pursuing again lol.

Only thing I would change is that I would have more funky debit cards. Reviewed on: 13th February 2016

Excellent service

I've had four Nationwide Flexaccounts for over 35 years now, and I've never had a bother. The staff are helpful and friendly, I've never been charged a penny to use the bank, and I've never had a problem. Here's to another 35 years Reviewed on: 12th February 2016

The savings rate for loyal customers seem to have fallen through the floor. new cusotmers are enticed but if you stay with them for many years, as i have done, you just get ignored Reviewed on: 12th February 2016

helped me recover from financial problems

I don't use banks as I am kind of blacklisted and the only place that would give me a basic account was Nationwide and I love them...I would never go back to HSBC, Barclays etc ever again even though I have recovered financially from the problems that I had x Reviewed on: 12th February 2016

Helpful and friendly, but

I love my bank because staff in branch are always helpful and friendly, and their online banking is great. On the downside - although some of their accounts offer competitive interesgt rates, they could do more for loyal customers. Reviewed on: 12th February 2016
