Review of the Nationwide, FlexDirect:

A good place to bank

I have banked with Nationwide for many years. I have found them to be straightforward, helpful and honest. They always try to help, and have specialist staff who are easy to contact when I need more in-depth advice. Whilst no easy access accounts offer great returns, I find Flexdirect a good product that fulfills my day-to-day banking requirements. It is easy to use and all the basics can be done at the ATM machine. A great help in very small bank that happens to very busy! Reviewed on: 21st November 2017

Banking but fairer

They are giving profits to customers. Can’t beat that. Reviewed on: 18th March 2025

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

Easy transfer.

Easy transfer and use of account plus good rates of interest. Reviewed on: 7th March 2025

Excellent Rewards Scheme

Every so often, nationwide rewards its flex direct customers for having an account with them which meet certain criteria. 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

The current account is ok - interest rate is now bad . I cannot be bothered to change banks Reviewed on: 26th February 2025

Good but room for improvement.

Good customer service both online and in lots of branches. Savings rates could do better. Also problems with an ISA transfer recently but finally sorted out. Reviewed on: 26th February 2025

All depaermenta good.

All depaermenta good. Easy to use website. Easy to contact if a problem or plenty of high street shops. Any problems sorted quickly Reviewed on: 26th February 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
