Review of the Nationwide, Credit card:

Good for using on holiday

4
Excellent exchange rates and charges for using abroad. Reviewed on: 11th April 2023

Brilliant Credit Card - Helped me out

5
Nationwide has really helped me. As an 18 year old with no credit history, Nationwide was the only high street reputable lender that was offering me a credit card after carrying out Elegibility checkers. Good customer services over telephone and in branch. Credit card offered with good credit limit for an 18 year old. Online quotation given gives the customer to confidence to apply before a credit search is done. Shame about the recent cashback reduction but it’s a sign of the times and not Nationwide’s fault.

Select Credit Card

4
A standard Credit Card however offers no non-sterling transaction charges saving £100s of unnecessary fees. Spot rate offered is good also. Reviewed on: 6th January 2018

Great card, very attractive rates for spending abroad and .5% cashback on everything you purchase! Reviewed on: 2nd December 2017

Great

5
Allowed us to pay for holiday of lifetime for Christmas with minimum exchange fees. Also when payments were unauthorised as someone unlawfully stole our details to pay for vouchers online, excellent text alerts to contact and all monies refunded immediately with new card on way in the post. Excellent! Reviewed on: 27th November 2017

Pain-free balance transfer

Opened up credit card in order to do a balance transfer. All went smoothly and was helped every step of the way. Website can be a bit unintuitive at times and persistent requests for passwords and memorable data can be a pain, Reviewed on: 22nd November 2017

Always deal with issues promptly

5
Nationwide have always dealt efficiently with any fraudulent transactions using lost/stolen credit cards. Frontline and telephone staff helpful and knowledgeable. I have been a customer with them for a great number of years and never persuaded to change for some “more lucrative deal” due to their excellent service Reviewed on: 8th November 2017
