    The Nationwide Flex Account was one of the easiest accounts I have opened, it was straight forward and the staff were helpful and talked me through the whole application, where I was given an instant decision in branch. I have never had a banking relationship with Nationwide before, but they have given to me in two weeks, more than my own bank has given to me in three years, ie full overdraft, credit card and even without having my salary paid into the account, the staff in branch are courteous ...

    I would only recommend using Nationwide if you start to open your account at least 3 months in advance before travelling, if the purpose of opening the account is for free cash withdrawls abroad.
    I applied with a month to go and it looks like I won't be recieving my card in time, therefore useless to me as I will be away then!

Speaking to customer services is frustrating as no-one seems to know the answer and calls are not returned. That said, the account is easy to operate online and there are distinct advantages when buying foreign goods or cash. Nati ...

    I have nothing but praise for the way the Nationwide Basic FlexAccount treats you. If you have a problem, you ring them up and they really do sort it out.

    They will charge you for any violations such as direct debits and bounced cheques.

    They do pay you a fairly good interest rate on your credit balances.

    I will not be changing accounts any time soon.
