Have been with Nationwide for a very long time, for at least a decade if not longer and have in the past used it as my main account, but have used Lloyds for the last 5 years as I am autistic and will often change things around with no explanation given as quite often I don't understand why I wanted to at all. I probably would go back to having the flexaccount back if and when I get a lot more money. Reviewed on: 12th June 2025
