I have been banking with them for 19 years its a good bank Reviewed on: 3rd February 2025

Poor service

1
This company locked me out of my account and failed to answer the phone for 2 days, they cost me £500 and have done nothing to rectify the situation, I'm now being forced to take my complaint higher, so much for being a loyal customer, I'm closing my accounts, shame on this disrespectful organisation, if they had done their job properly I wouldn't be in this situation.

I set up a student account with Nationwide for going to University and they were really helpful in setting it up, the account was flexible and fair and with it they provided a student box of goodies! Nationwide are always so helpful and the staff are always really friendly and the banking app is easy and clear to use. Reviewed on: 14th August 2022

Brilliant Building Society

5
I use several products with Nationwide and have done for over 40 years. I believe them to be a trustworthy institution who genuinely put their customers at the top of their agenda, unlike most high street banks who put profits first. Reviewed on: 25th July 2022

Can't think of anything to complain about

Alway very reliable. On line banking and app are easy to use. They seem to take security very seriously. Any problems are resolved very quickly. Friendly helpful call centre. Nice local Nationwide branch. Reviewed on: 25th July 2022

I’ve only positive things to say about the Nationwide, staff are always very professional, helpful and on hand as and when you need them. Great to interact with about their products. Their product knowledge is very good and helps in the decision making process. Reviewed on: 21st July 2022

me and my partner have a joint account, easy to use Reviewed on: 20th July 2022

Good service, great app & friendly staff in-branch

After being extremely let-down by Natwest, who took over £2000 in charges from me (despite my being in financial hardship due to illness), I changed my current account to Nationwide. The process was very easy & I was able to switch to an account without an overdraft or fees. The app works well (easy to navigate & reliable) and they warn you well in advance on the login page if there's going to be maintenance. I liked being able to set up alerts that tell me when my account balance gets down to my chosen amount, and they also message me if there's a Direct Debit pending & not enough money in the account to pay it (and it gives me until 2.30pm to pay money in to cover it). The staff in my local branch are always helpful & welcoming, plus their cashpoint outside also takes deposits so you can pay money in at any time, even out of hours. I haven't had any experience of trying to get help with any issues, so I can't report anything about online or phone customer service. Reviewed on: 8th July 2022
