Review of the Nationwide, FlexPlus:

Travel Insurance and Breakdown Cover included

5
FlexPlus from Nationwide offers the above insurances for only £13 per month which is super value from a creditable and reliable company. Reviewed on: 19th July 2017

No Faff Banking

5
Excellent Service, Good Road Map and No Faff products. Reviewed on: 5th March 2025

Great, clear and easy

5
Everything has always been crystal clear with Nationwide; English is not my first language so banking lingo can be a bit intimidating. The staff is always clear and concise, and their website has all the info I need. Plus, it's a no frill bank account with a few nice perks. Highly recommend it! Reviewed on: 26th February 2025

Just about worth it

I've had very poor experience with Nationwide when making a claim on the mobile phone insurance element of the FlexPlus account in the past. It was so bad that I left them altogether. Since being back my experience has been neutral. I'm not pleased at the price hike but I do at least qualify for the fairer share payment Reviewed on: 26th February 2025

FlexPlus best value for money acct.

I’ve had a FlexPlus account with Nationwide for years and find the add ons very good value for money, especially the travel insurance you can book holidays knowing you are covered for most eventualities, should the worst happen. Reviewed on: 26th February 2025

Disappointing NW Flexplus Mobile Insurance Experience

1
I’ve been a Nationwide FlexPlus account holder for five years, primarily attracted by the additional mobile phone insurance. Until this month, I hadn’t needed to make a claim. However, when my son accidentally broke the back cover of his iPhone 12 Pro Max, I finally had to use the service. While the claim and approval process were straightforward, the experience quickly turned into a nightmare. The approved repairer, Pocket Geek TechRepair (managed by Assurant), replaced the original battery, which was at 78%, with a non-Apple-approved battery. This caused the phone to become unusable, constantly restarting. I had to visit the store three times to have the original battery reinstalled so the phone would work again. Additionally, they replaced the back cover with a counterfeit part. After paying a £75 excess fee and £13 monthly for five years, I was left with substandard, fake parts. When I raised the issue, the insurance provider claimed this was in line with their terms and conditions, which state that "readily available parts" can be used. However, I don’t believe this should mean counterfeit components. It feels like the provider interprets the T&Cs to suit their convenience, leaving customers with a poor-quality service.

Banking made easy

Found everything to be straightforward and beneficial. The app is excellent and feels very secure. Linked regular saver was good all in all couldn’t fault this account. Reviewed on: 5th December 2024
