Review of the Nationwide, FlexDirect:

Ethical banking for the people

5
I like this building society's ethics. Customers service is always very friendly and helpful. I really appreciated the 5% cashback on spending in February, March and April. The heavy use of card ready is a bit annoying but they've been taking steps to reduce the amount of time the card reader is needed Reviewed on: 10th April 2023

Fantastic interest rate

5
I opened this account after saving enough money for the maximum of the 5% savings. I intended on using the funds for my first property. Setting the account up was incredibly easy and I’ve been pleased with the monthly interest received. Cannot fault this product. Reviewed on: 12th November 2018

Nationwide's account pays market-leading interest, with a nice mobile app and a decent web app. The sign-up experience was pretty poor, but since then it's been very smooth sailing. Reviewed on: 6th November 2018

I switched to Nationwide from TSB since having the account for years I had never switched before but I must say the service was excellent.
