People, please don't use this bloody bank!!! They closed all my daughter's accounts after 6 years with them without a real reason and as a working student she can't get her hard earned paycheck(she works12h shift in hospital) leaving her to borrow money for rent,bills,everything!!!Heartless bureacrats!!! Our next step is Ombudsman!!! If he won't help will hire pro bono barrister and go to court against this "oldest so called highly reputable establishment"!!!

Lost all trust in Lloyd’s. Will not give me access to my mothers bank account via mobile banking following the death of my father, regardless of me having lasting power of attorney. 20K in the account and my mother has dementia, and needs this to live off. My mother lives in Italy and the only way I can now send money for her to live off is to call Lloyd’s every time. Terrible experience and have been told to just go through complaints and wait for 8 weeks.

Very bad bank for non GBP payments. They charged me a lot about 75£ for 2000$ payments in three transactions.even their exchange rate was unfair.so they get money from 3 ways,one from exchange rate and one from non GBP TRANS FEE and one from non GBP PURCH FEE. and i am giving 50% positive review for their costumer service. I don't recommend this bank. Please read all term and conditions of this bank. I have the same payments in other credit card or bank but they didn't charge me at all.

Gave this one star but if i could i would give it none. Absolutely shocking. We use the Lloyds commercial cards portal for our business but it is out of action more times than it is accessible. They do not flag blocked cards to the card holder causing problems as regular legitimate subscriptions are rejected. It really is utter rubbish when as a business we need to view up to date transactions regularly and cannot get into the portal because it is littered with bugs and errors. I do not recommend.

This bank gives the impression that it is not working for its customers, anything I try to arrange is rejected. I think they have a machine there that has one answer option: sorry, no! The only thing they have for customers are credit cards with high interest rates. Sorry, I do NOT recommend

Worst banking experience I’ve ever had. Went into the local Liphook branch to open a joint account. They managed to open an account under my name but couldn’t add the second person. Appointment was running over so they were very keen to fob me off and lost interest very quickly. Lady then registered a complaint on my behalf on why the ‘system’ wouldn’t let her add a second person. I’ve just phoned for an update three and a half weeks later and the complaint hasn’t even been allocated to someone for review. Utter shambles.

Moved area updated address at branch with paperwork, my current home is apparently that of the actual branch now, I sleep in the vault I guess? Money trapped in my account, blocks on incoming/outgoing payments and debit card without notice or reason, turned out to be a mistake. Complaint handler compensated, and informed me that account restrictions removed to be able to transfer money and accept incoming payments again. No this had not been completed, as I attempted to transfer out afterwards. Mental health disabilities affected majorly, resulting in major impacts. Gender assumption issues by call staff, regards use of incorrect pronouns even though my name is clearly female?

I have unfortunately been victim of a scam so I have been asking for a charge back few times but Lloyds bank did not help me at all, on the website they write '' we are here to help'' all lies! I have been client for over 6 years and I expect help from my bank in situations like this! My credit card company accepted the charge back and refunded the money, so why the Lloyds bank did not do the same?? Very disappointed, I will be closing my account shortly and transfer my funds to another bank!

Diabolical treatment of a vulnerable customer they lost me over £40,000 through fraud and scams because they were incompetent and didn’t do their checks they are inconsistent with their procedures. They don’t communicate properly no one knows what they’re doing and now they’re refusing to let me close my account which is absolutely incredulous avoid like the plague. They need to work on the customer care and staff training.

Worst experience for something simple, unable to confirm some account data, with multiple calls and different (assured) answers: all different, all wrong. Until I managed to find a bank statement that proved their systems is wrong. Not sure if I’ll stay a costumer for long. Costumer service was not the brightest.

Fraud dept exposed me to potentially having my account stolen themselves. I tried to transfer from my own account into another account in my name. It was held by their fraud dept and had to phone a number. I spoke to 2 people on phone each time going through their security questions, but they could not release the payment. Over an hour later I was told to go into a branch to get it released. At a branch I spoke to 2 further people who had to phone their dept themselves and was passed the phone onto me to go through their security again. While on phone I was passed to another person and went through the same security again. They still could not get the payment released. Since the payment did not go through, I was told to put the payment through again. All this time I was in an open planned branch being asked personal and sensitive questions where anyone coming and going can hear, more than once. I always used online banking at home and never on a device that leaves my house. In branch they wanted me to log onto my other account on mobile to prove that the other account was mine. Which means registering a portable device for my other account so if I lose my mobile it would be easier for someone else to access my bank account. Obvious no one knows what they’re doing since I was kept being passed from one person to another. I didn’t get to do what I set out to achieve and I’m out of pocket having to pay for parking for several hours.

Contacted Lloyds Bank at 1730 hours and finished nearly two hours later after having to complain, be passed to four separate personal banking staff and a credit card call centre after automatic monthly payment for printer ink was stopped when automatic banking system failed to update all my monthly payments when Lloyds issued a new replacement debit card . Staff tried to block complaint repeatedly by interrupting and saying it was a matter between myself and a retailer. I have been a customer since 1989. No respect. Very few pleases, thank yous or promises to expedite resolving Lloyds problems. Finished call saying it would take 40 days to investigate and they might not bother to reply, if they thought it was not necessary.

I have found that I can log onto my account in the mobile app if connected to Wi-Fi but not when using mobile data The lady that answered the phone when I rang to ask about this told me first that it only worked over Wi-Fi Then said it was my device as it will work over mobile data. I’m left not knowing which is the right answer. Most important to me is the fact she interrupted as I tried to explain, became impatient to the point of rudeness. I’m still waiting for my debit card to arrive but after this experience I’m already checking out the switching service

The worst bank in UK. From the time I opened account till today this bank has been the poorest customer service in UK. Weather in branch in Chelsea in London where I opened the account till today dealing with customer service on phone this is worst bank in UK!. I have closed my account with Lloyds today because they wasted so much of my precious time and energy for little things which other banks deal with effectively. Other banks in Uk have great customer service on phone or in branch. I have only ever been to Chelsea branch in London and it’s the poorest customer service for 15 years! On phone terrible misinformed idiots work for Lloyds who make life difficult and contradict each other.
