Total absence of customer service at a local level. The LLoyds centralised telephone service is about as user unfriendly as you can imagine. If you want to talk to your local branch over the phone - forget it. The idiot I spoke to would not set up a local branch appointment for me without talking to the account holder - my mother. I explained to him that my mother was dead ! Still he would not make an appointment for me and told me to visit the branch. I live 60 miles from the branch. Still he would not give me a phone number. See other reviews below of Lloyds with similar experiences. Lloyds management is clearly far too arrogant and blind to correct a woefully useless system.

I’m my mother’s executor. She died 3rd September 2022 and I registered the death promptly. I am still trying to sort out her personal and business accounts with Lloyds Bank. It is by far the worst and most unhelpful of all the financial organisations I’ve had to deal with. The various departments do not communicate with each other well, and the Branches are poorly staffed with undertrained people who cannot communicate with the rest of the organisation. Lloyds advertise they “are with you every step of the way” but business banking customers will find that is not at all the case. Staff try to help, but the fragmented nature of the organisation is sel-defeating. Management is clearly very poor.

A good experience in that the questions were clearly designed and easy to follow, quick to reply to. And a good price, too!

Don’t be fooled by the black horse advertisements we all grew up making you think they are here to help us. This institution is the worst bank you can deal with, if they get a chance to screw you over they will. I saved £14000.00 a year on one business account by switching over to Barclays. Halifax mortgages are really really bad they was supposed to help us during the pandemic but the same again rather than put me on a new fixed interest rate they have be on variable rate . Please don’t be fooled by the advertisements that we grew up with , their institution is the worst I have come across, even the smaller banks will help you more than these cronies.

**POSTING ON LLOYDS AND HALIFAX** My family has been a Lloyds Bank customer for nearly 40 years, and previously they have been great. Really helpful and the managers have been attentive. Recently, we have had many problems with Lloyds AND Halifax which is resulting in us slowly moving accounts. The first issue arose with Halifax when I went to buy a product at John Lewis of £1000 on Apple Pay. Previously with other providers, we’ve had no problem using Apple Pay (Virgin Money & First Direct) and we didn’t think much of it. Only when I went to Halifax to process an online transaction of £210 to M&S is declined again after putting in all our card details. Decided some was up so called Halifax directly and waited for a long time (with no music, just ringing!!) to be connected to a unfriendly advisor who wasn’t willing to work with us and ended up just saying to go in-branch. Went into our local branch and guess what, they couldn’t do a single thing. Ordered a replacement card and that was all. Stuck with a credit card which doesn’t work. It was only when I went to pay at a local garage that my Club Lloyds debit card also declined. After being very confused, we called Lloyds and yet again we’re told to go in-branch. It was also then that my son’s pay a contact started failing too. Went into my local Lloyds branch and it was the worst branch experience I’ve ever had, first of all being told by the staff member that the website was actually incorrect and the Apple Pay limit is £100 not £250, which is not convenient and during covid times not great to start with having to use chip/pin everywhere. This was when things started to go really wrong. When we explained my son’s pay a contact issue, the staff member left us with a phone at the back of the branch on hold for an hour and a half, being passed back and forward between staff who were uncooperative and did not even know their own software! After nearly 2 hours, my son obviously got frustrated and asked how much longer this was going to take and this is ridiculous, and to his dismay, he was called abusive and told not to argue with staff. This was enough, I asked for a complaints contact only to be told there was no way other than yet ANOTHER phone call to Lloyds and we finally found a form online. We were offered £40 compensation by Lloyds and the complaint was settled. This was when we went away and our Lloyds cards started to decline again, over 100 miles from home. Luckily, we found a friend who was able to pay for us throughout our trip. This spoilt our trip completely which we spent over £300 on, and when my son reported it to Lloyds they said it would take 8 more weeks for a complaint to go through, so we still have broken cards and a low limit. Abysmal service and awful attitudes, will be moving as soon as we can. Sorry Lloyds, enough is enough.

"One of the more expensive providers. And watch out for the additional costs if you have to change anything with your cover. I had a change of vehicle, did all the work for them and then got hit with a massive \"admin\" charge. Total rip off merchants. Won't be using them again."

Son trying to purchase a car, declined payment despite funds available and told to contact fraud team. Spent 40mins on phone and advised problem rectified but allow 10 minutes before trying again. Same result and now plagued with automatic calls advising to contact fraud team but no answer? Change of bank needed I think by both of us on Monday as useless

Rubbish service ordered new card nearly eight working days ago in my local branch. Queued why it's not arrived no one in branch ordered it. Got to wait another 5 working days and no manager available for complaints or no emergency service to get card out quicker. No one interested at Lloyds

Lloyds has an over 70s telephone number I so hope it's still there and I will never forget the kind man who helped me with a scam. I must admit it was quite a while ago now and I don't remember the man's name.
