Review of the Nationwide, FlexDirect:

Good if you don't need a branch

I opened a FlexDirect account as it got interest without charges. Manage it through the app or online as intended. Never been into a branch or called to discuss it. Interest rates wiped out with the pandemic and sadly still there even though things are more 'back to normal' Reviewed on: 2nd February 2023

poor branch opening times

opening times in branch especially on weekends is awful. App is okay but they still need card readers for new payees which seems quite old fashioned now especially with biometrics availability. Would not reccommend Reviewed on: 8th February 2023

Easy and simple to use

Easy to use app and simple verification of payments. Great to manage multiple accounts. Reviewed on: 8th February 2023

So helpful

I've often had to message to ask questions and always get a prompt response, or even phone call from my local branch. Reviewed on: 5th February 2023

Honest banking

Run for benefit of members not shareholders. No investment in fossil fuels, so feels more ethical. Reviewed on: 2nd February 2023
