Nationwide FlexAccount reviews (1098)

Tried to switch my account and no direct debits/standing orders switched!

1
I switched to Nationwide Flexdirect account on the "recommend a friend" offer which gives you £100 bonus for switching on the provision that you switch at least 2 direct debits over (I had 3 set up on my old account). I only found out that they hadn't transferred any of my standing orders or direct debits over from my old account when I got an email saying I didn't qualify for the £100 because I hadn't switched any direct debits! All of my payments that were supposed to go out over a month were missed, and it's been really inconvenient for me, with absolutely no help from Nationwide, and very rude customer service representatives. So disappointed, I've closed my account with them immediately. Reviewed on: 22nd February 2020

Perfect!

Solid

I also use Monzo and some of the newer disruptor saving/banking apps, and while I really appreciate their new features, I've not yet switched over as I appreciate the reliability of Nationwide. There's nothing particularly innovative with them, but equally I've never had much difficulty - they're simply a dependable company who I'd trust with my money Reviewed on: 9th February 2020

Great account and app
