Can't fault them

I've had my flexaccount with Nationwide for around twenty years and have never had any problems. I always recieve a text message to let me know if I am going to go overdrawn so that I can move money around. Reviewed on: 31st January 2020

Me and my partner went in to Nationwide to enquire about accounts that Nationwide have. The lady explained in detail every account, product and service they have. We spoke about our finances and she gave us the best options to suit us, how to go about applying for them and when to get different products they offer. She had explained all of this in detail to maximise our gain from Nationwide. We now hold 3 accounts with Nationwide, 2 savers, 2 ISA and have since been happy with the services they provide. With banks becoming non existant, she had advised us the best ways of internet banking, post office services and other Nationwide banks near to us. Overall, very happy with all they have done for us and will continue to use them. Reviewed on: 28th January 2020

Great for some things, less for others

The account is fantastic for my pay - I work freelance for a company in China and nationwide works perfectly with the bank the company uses, so while my colleagues all get charged about £10 by their bank every month when they get paid I get charged £0! Fantastic!! On the other hand I’ve had my account since I was a kid - obviously it was called a junior account or whatever before but the point is my parents opened it when I was very small/a baby. At 20 years old I’d never had a credit card and thought it’d be convenient for travelling. Despite meeting the minimum criteria I was denied one. I was told that the staff don’t get access to the reason and that a letter explaining it would be posted to me - no such letter ever arrived!!! As a loyal customer I had hoped for slightly better treatment so I didn’t just feel ignored cos I’m not rich - I have a job and met the minimum income requirements. Reviewed on: 28th January 2020
