Advantages: See review.
Disadvantages: See review.
Nationwide is one of the best financial institutions that I have ever had dealings with.
They are a building society, and not a bank, which implies a few differences (although I am afraid that I do not know the details).
My local branch is always well staffed, so even though it gets very busy, the queue goes down quickly. They also have a dedicated person on the help desk, so if you have a problem, then you do not have to join the main queue. Although this does sound great in theory, with even a short queue of people with various īproblemsī, it can take a while to be seen.
There are also private rooms where you can discuss your financial needs without any one else around.
I found my account easy to set up and, whilst in the branch, they offered me the chance to set up an online account. Sceptical at first, having dealt with other online accounts, I agreed because the lady was rather enthusiastic about it.
I am glad that I did as it is so easy to manage money online. One can get statements without having to go to an ATM, or wait for the monthly statement.
I found that Nationwide sent me my card very quickly.
All in all I am very pleased with this building society.
Summary: Highly recommend building society.
