I've had a Nationwide current account for a long time. I've opened others but kept using Nationwide as my main account because it is easy to use and reliable. They are keen for feedback from customers and to find new ways to help. Reviewed on: 11th August 2023

Overdraft facilities

I had an account with Nationwide with a £1000 overdraft. I also had a credit card. I occassionally used my overdraft but never extensively. £300 at most. They reduced my overdraft to £850. For the next 6 months; i never used my overdraft and they the reducted it again to £250. I feel they should give the customer a choice rather then just reducing the overdraft. Or at lease give a reason as to why. I like to have an overdraft as a safety net but I never used it. So that is why i swtiched banks. Reviewed on: 9th August 2023

Don't bank with Nationwide as they treat fraud victims as suspects, despite the Police and the Fraud Bureau saying that your a victim Reviewed on: 17th July 2023

Appalling customer service

1
Received a letter from nationwide asking me to get in touch. Rang the number on the letter, phone was answered after 10 minutes, gave the letter reference and was put back on hold for a further 37 minutes. A total of 47 minutes just to confirm a standing order. Absolutely appalling service. Reviewed on: 17th July 2023

Nobody's perfect, but this came close

I opened an account with Nationwide as they offered a cash incentive to switch my current account. But I was very impressed with their app in particular, it's very easy to use and quick to set up. I manage all of my accounts online, and have used several banks over the past few years- this one is one of the two best (Chase being the other). Although I have now switched to Lloyds (yep, they offered £150 to switch to them) they are nowhere near as good, so I'll be heading back to Nationwide next month. Reviewed on: 14th July 2023
