Review of the Nationwide, Credit card:

Don't believe their hype

1
I have a credit limit of £5000 on a credit card. Never use it all, always only about £1200. So this month paid an amount (that was the full amount) of £850.00. Evidently the cheque took a while to get there. No, even though there was still £4,2000 credit available, these idiots at Nationwide not only took a late payment of £10 (no objection) but still with £4,200 credit available, they declined a payment of £8.20. Now you need to be totally devoid of common sense to do that. What is wrong with Nationwide? I am a long term customer. Never been overdrawn, never any trouble, yet the treat me with total disrespect. Nationwide do no deserve decent, good customers. A bank to give a miss. A nd whilst these pen-pushers were telling me they hadn't received the cheque in payment, this morning I spoke to my other bank (Halifax) and they say that the cheque had been cleared. So Nationwide were either lying or incompetent. take your selection. A company that is all talk and just not interested in true customer service. Reviewed on: 29th January 2025

The member credit card is great.

The member credit card is great. Interest free for 15 months which makes it stand out from the rest. It also allows you to use worldwide which is great for me whilst travelling. Reviewed on: 15th April 2024

easy to use credit card

5
I use the credit card regularly and like that it pays off the higher interest amounts first. I also feel this lets me manage credit card debt in a better manner. Their interest charges are clear and concise as to how they’re calculated too and not overcharged like others. Reviewed on: 7th April 2024
