About this product

The Nationwide FlexDirect current account pays interest on your money and you can earn cashback on debit card purchases for the first 12 months.

If you’re eligible for an overdraft, the first £50 is interest free. The FlexDirect account has to be managed online or over the phone, not at the branch.

Nationwide FlexDirect current account reviews help you find out what it’s really like to be a customer. If you’ve used Nationwide before, you can also leave a review and share your experience..

Excellent bank

I use Nationwide as my main current account bank and find their range of savings accounts very competitive. I also like the fact that it is owned by its customers and also their committment to not closing branches, particularly in non-city areas Reviewed on: 7th March 2025

We love Nationwide

This bank have been fantastic with us, we have even opened savings accounts for our children as the rates are incredible. The staff in branches are always lovely too. Their banking app is safe, easy to use and the access to multiple accounts is simple and quick. Reviewed on: 6th March 2025

Easy to manage account online

Easy to manage account online although currently unable to pay in cheques using the app. Handy to have local branch as most banks have now closed their branches Reviewed on: 26th February 2025

If Carlsberg did banking...

So simple to move accounts. They kept me fully informed at all times. It integrates fully with my financial management system (Moneyhub). They have branches with real people who know what they are doing, and don't ask you to wait 5 weeks for an appointment. The statements are easy to find and use. I couldn't find a single fault, and they rewarded me for the move. Reviewed on: 26th February 2025
