A great set of perks for a great price

Saved so much money on travel insurance, mobile and breakdown cover by combining them with my flex plus account. The linked saver is an amazing rate too. The mobile app is one of the best around from a mainstream bank. Reviewed on: 26th January 2020

FlexPlus gives added value

Flex Plus perks (mobile phone insurance, breakdown cover) are well worth the £13/month. Used both more than once. Great customer experience. That's not to mention the better interest rate. Reviewed on: 15th January 2020

Definite decline in quality recently

1
Having been with Nationwide for almost 9 years and having everything from a mortgage, insurance and paid current account with them i'm dismayed to say that in the last 18 months the quality of their products has declined massively. The benefits of their paid account is no longer really worth it and their overdraft fees are complex and poorly explained. The biggest issue is with the quality of their customer service. As an example i recently sent a message through their online messaging system to advise my credit card had stopped working and asked why, they advised that over a month ago they had detected possible fraudulent activity on it, cancelled it and sent a new one at the time. I don't use my card often which is why i had only just discovered it wasn't working. Putting aside my grumble that they hand't bothered to inform me at the time they had done this, I reminded them that it was now over a month later and they should have worked out from my message that i was oblivious to any new card being sent and had obviously not received it. The response from them was the text equivalent of someone shrugging their shoulders! I had to respond and ask them to send a new one...again. This hasn't been an isolated incident I have has a few other experiences where the agent on the other end just seems to be working from a script and piecing the response together from templates which make no sense and don't take into account the context of the issue or level of understanding the customer displays. This is the quality of customer service you can expect from Nationwide Reviewed on: 3rd January 2020
