Beware, Flexplus travel insurance is worthless NW Flexplus travel insurance underwritten by Aviva is not worth having. We claimed once with Nationwide's previous underwriter and it was very easy. H... Read more Reviewed on: 12th May 2026

Poor

Have flex plus travel insurance. Flights got delayed and missed our international flights. There was 8 of us going, and all other banks insurance (4 different companies) paid out except nationwide. Theres a lot of smallprint they hide behind and customer service is poor Reviewed on: 7th November 2023

Flexability

Having the ability to upgrade ans downgrade from a flex plus at will is such a useful tool, started driving brilliant ill upgrade. going on holiday next month I'll upgrade, don't need it when I get back no worried ilk down grade again. Oh no, I smash my phone, no worries I have a flex plus still I'll claim on the insurance... pesky internationally transaction fees... no worries I'm not being charged with my flex plus... such a useful and flexible price of equipment to switch in and out of as needed!

I insured my phone with flex plus and I lost it.at the begging they didn’t want to believe I lost my phone at the end they accept it but they sent me an empty package and I couldn’t prove that I didn’t receive the phone.DO NOT OPEN FLEX PLUS ACCOUNT. Reviewed on: 25th July 2023

Very Little Insurance Cover

1
Our Holiday was cancelled due to the Travel Agent going into liquidation. The Nationwide Flexplus unbelievably wouldn’t cover us for this, so pretty useless insurance really. Reviewed on: 19th June 2023

Useless, a waste of time!

1
Today, Thursday - and having spent an interminable amount of time waiting on the phone until their phone options listed all kinds of everything (Surprised? Hahaha!)! the recording then happily told me UK Insurance have now decided to CLOSE their phonelines on Tuesdays & Thursdays - AND then hung up on me! A total waste of my time, thanks for nothing! Reviewed on: 15th June 2023

Never claimed, but customer service dodgy.

2
I've never needed to claim, so cannot comment on that aspect of their service, but dealing with their customer service regarding medical screening can be very difficult. The adviser I encountered was unclear, gave me inaccurat information, coughed into the phone while speaking to me and left me thinking I had no trust in this organisation to deliver a good service. I'll price up alternative cover. Reviewed on: 14th June 2023

Best current account for my needs, with the best building society!

5
FlexPlus as an account is excellent - I really feel it's good value for money, as the package it offers has saved me so much money on phones when they've broken, as well as helping with car breakdowns and travel issues! Over the last few decades I have been delighted with how the Building Society operates, including giving members a say at AGMs. The Fairer Share pay award is an excellent example of how they're looking out for their members.

One of the few remaining mutuals

5
An excellent current account to have, easy to use from banking app and helpers on hand either on line or on the end of a phone. Plus, Nationwide is paying all its lasting customers £100 each! Reviewed on: 31st May 2023

Easy to access

Nationwide is a good bank account, with good rates Reviewed on: 30th May 2023
