Quick get your money out of the Nationwide - interest rates on every account starts with 0.! The childrens saver in particular which my son has held for 10 years has dropped from 5% to 0.75.. you dont have to look far for a much better rate. Very sneaky of the Nationwide - also take note Dunfermline BS customers!- Read Mywatch's review (67 words)

Both my children have held Nationwide kids accounts since they were born....I have always been happy with the service although I do agree with the first reviewer that if you go into the branch at a busy time you must be prepared to queue! My local branch only has 2 desks so if you get a difficult customer then you can be half an hour or more waiting - not good with 2 small children! The staff are friendly and efficient though and I have no hesitation in recommending the Nationwide.- Read pjdickson's review (90 words)

Nationwide do generally have a reasonable rate of interest on their Smart Children's Saving Account, although with a bit of shopping around these can be bettered.
But don't go into a Nationwide branch if you haven't got much time. For the second week running our city branch has had queues out of the door. I waited 25 minutes in the queue, and during that time they closed 1 of the 3 cashier windows - even though they still had queues out of the door. When we questioned why we were told that ...- Read lanser's review (167 words)

Despite their claim on television to offer everyone the same good rate on their savings account; the history is different. We have had accounts in the past in our son's name only, to find that they had been "parked" giving a 0.5% interest rate. Nationwide do not tell you when this happens, and when you complain you get know where.- Read nblunden's review (63 words)

Phone Nationwide before if you are not a Nationwide user, to check what identity you need to open a Smart Children's Saving Account. I was very happy with Nationwide, and I was only in there for about 10 minutes.- Read lea18's review (75 words)
