Review of the Nationwide, Cash ISA:

Martin Lewis wouldn't be impressed!!

Opened a new 1 year fixed rate ISA yesterday at 5.1 %, which seems good compared to recent returns. However, I asked what happens at the end of the year if I don't contact them (I am old and could find myself in hospital then etc.etc.) The answer is that the money goes into a holding "Maturity Account". After further enquiry, I establish that the maturity account would pay 1.4% interest "as instant access". Martin Lewis, in his weekly MSE newsletter says that we shouldn't be accepting less than 4% on instant access accounts. I like the local Nationwide very much, but, come on Nationwide, is this fair and good practice??? And how much investors money are you holding at this derisory rate? Reviewed on: 14th July 2023

Save and forget it. They gave other products to encourage saving. Reviewed on: 31st January 2024

Best ISA rate

I have banked with Nationwide for a few years now and would happily recommend them for their great app, good saving rates- particularly the current ISA. Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

Best branch service

The branch people at Nationwide are just so warm and friendly, attentive, eager to please, knowledgeable and helpful, resolve issues and problems with minimal fuss. The ISA is part of a wide range of products to suit every need. Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

Helpful Banking

Having a low interest rate on ISAs for so long, Nationwide were quick to contact me when the new higher rates were available. Now I have a good rate of interest on my fixed rate ISA for the next 2 years as I wanted. Reviewed on: 9th March 2023
