EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE FROM RYAN

I went into Lloyds bank in St Helens, Merseyside. I spoke with a gentleman named Ryan. A friend of mine had recently passed away and I got excellent customer service from Ryan who helped me a lot with my friend's account. Thank you Ryan.

Handling a friend’s account after a bereavement can be challenging, so it’s great to know that Ryan provided the care, understanding, and assistance you needed. Thank you for your kind words.

It took me a while to do a new mortgage deal online and a bit confusing to submit it and accept it, I got there in the end. I would prefer to speak to an advisor usually with something as important as this.

Can't see account names anymore

They've removed the ability to see account names on the computer. Why?

They're shutting down the local branch

The chat is infuriating whenever you do need something

I have been with Lloyds since I was ~15 and will be leaving within the month. They seem to be set on making things worse

I am extremely disappointed with the service I have received.

After numerous phone calls, I was assured that my savings statements would be emailed to me as I have a Morgage in principle with Lloyds bank.Despite these promises, I still have not received anything. I have been paper-free for some time and have not received any statements for my savings account since January.

This situation is now having serious consequences. I am in the process of purchasing a property and urgently need proof of funds from my savings account. Because Lloyds Bank has repeatedly failed to provide the requested documentation, despite several calls and assurances that it would be sent, I am now at risk of losing the property.

I do not understand why this issue has not been resolved when I have contacted the bank multiple times and have been promised that the documents would be emailed. The lack of communication and failure to provide essential account information is unacceptable.

I require my statements to be sent immediately and would like this complaint escalated as a matter of urgency. I also expect an explanation as to why this issue has continued despite my repeated requests and the assurances given by your staff.

The delays caused by Lloyds Bank are now putting a significant financial transaction at risk, and I expect this matter to be treated with the seriousness it deserves.

Unable to access online Lloyds International banking. Experiencing ‘technical problems’. Not for the first time.
Get some better qualified IT staff perhaps?
Inability to access account is causing major problem.
I’d change banks but suspect they’re all equally interested only in HNWI clients.

Telephone and Chat Staff (not AI)…

Telephone and Chat Staff (not AI) totally miss points raised and respond from a crib sheet. Was chasing up interest payments due on 2 standard savers accouts. This is the response to my from Karan at Lloyds about failure to pay the monthly interest "As with all Standard Savers, the interest rate (currently 1%) is applied and paid monthly, not annually. here is no manual
change made by a colleague to switch Standard Saver accounts to annual interest payments, as:
Payment frequency is automatically defined by the product type Standard Savers are system-set to
monthly interest Annual interest payments typically apply only to specific account types." Andthis this is my reply
"you are missing the point raised, both accounts now show as standard saver accounts and should be
paid interest monthly, No interest has been paid in May, when will it get paid ?Delivered"

Since this comment I was advised a complaints supervisor would be in touch 3 working days now and no contact.

If you don't pay off your credit card in full, you'll be charged interest over 2 months, even if balance is zero

I joined Lloyds for their Club Lloyds account. Day to day banking has been great and I've never experienced any problems. I receive six free Vue cinema tickets a year and this is a good perk. I convinced my partner to switch too and we now also get free Disney+.

I recently applied for a credit card and when my first bill arrived, I made a minimum payment and unfortunately was late with the remainder due to a life event.

The next bill, I paid the interest and paid the rest of the outstanding balance. The account was at zero.

Then the next bill came and I was horrified when Lloyds then tried to also charge interest even though my balance was zero before the payment due date.

Apparently if you do not pay in full one month, you pay interest for two months! Wow, what a money-spinner. I understand that if no payment was made but that was unbelievable when I had made a partial payment. I won't be using this credit card much again, as a result of these T&Cs, designed to ensure you slip up and pay them lots of money.

Don't have any life events happen to you and ensure a direct debit is set to pay in full, or if you miss making a full payment, you will pay interest even if you then pay in full.

Guess this is how they fund the free cinema tickets.

We dont have a branch near by for 5 miles, so rely on Phone Bank. The answer machine says there is a wait of an hour to get through only 30 more mins of waiting to go. All the money that has been saved from job loses and buildings no longer would have been great to see phone support for the vulnerable and elderly that cant use online who savings money is made from. Online is not always secure or helpful, human support is still needed and appreciated by the public rather than DIY banking. Very disappointed but by bit seems customer service is being reduced and I as a customer feel less and less valued as time goes on.

Update rang and made a formal complaint.

Hi Missy. I'm sorry to hear how this has affected you. We understand how important it is to be able to speak to someone, especially if you don’t have a local branch nearby or if online banking isn’t suitable for you. Long wait times on the phone can be frustrating, particularly when you rely on this as your main way of managing your account.

I can understand your concerns about reduced face-to-face services and the impact this can have on customers who prefer or need more traditional support. Access to reliable, human assistance is incredibly important, and your feedback highlights how valuable that remains.

I had a very disappointing experience…


I had a very disappointing experience at the Lloyds Bank Kingston branch with Rashida, who was working at the deposit and withdrawal counter.

Despite there being a long queue of customers waiting, the service was very slow and a significant amount of time was spent in conversation while customers were waiting. During my visit, I felt that my withdrawal request was met with unnecessary obstacles and repeated reasons for delay.

Even after the branch manager, who was extremely kind, professional, and helpful, reviewed the matter, signed the required paperwork, and requested that my funds be released, the process remained unnecessarily difficult. As a result, I was required to contact Lloyds Business Banking myself before the transaction could be completed.

I would like to commend the branch manager for being supportive and professional throughout the situation. Unfortunately, the service I received from Rashida was not helpful and caused considerable frustration and delay.

I hope Lloyds Bank reviews this matter and takes steps to ensure customers receive efficient, professional, and consistent service in the future.

Lloyds have no patience for disabled people

Lloyds blocked my account for some reason using the account block protection. Absolutely no reason to though. I was buying from ebay with the same account I have been using for years. Anyway, I contacted them by 24/7 messaging and was asked to provide a copy of my passport or UK driving license, both of which I did not have with me, as I was stay away from home. They then told me to ring fraud services, which I couldn't asmI am partially deaf and can't use a phone in that manner. I have now been without the use of my card for just over 2 weeks. I am disabled and partially deaf, but Lloyd's don't seem to care about that! This is like modern day discrimination against disabled people, if you can't sort it their way, Tuff! I was cut off the message chat about 5 times because they hadn't a clue how to deal with a disabled person. I have just switched to Nationwide myself now.

They deserve the same loyalty they give: none.

I have banked with Lloyds for many decades. Looking back, I am horrified by my naivety and their greed. I would be wealthier by 100's of 1,000's of pounds if I had been simply less trusting of their advice. Their interest rates and their charges are laughable compared to the market, but they rely on people like me being too uninformed or disinterested to pay attention. For example, when they advised me to invest in an ISA, did they point-out that their interest rates were among the very lowest available? No they did not! Did they remind me every year that my money was just sitting in an increasingly uncompetitive product? Of course not. I did not question their advice and just used the Lloyds product my Lloyds banker suggested back in 1990 something. It's almost like I thought the nice man in the suit had my best interest at heart!

Please realise that the Lloyds model (like some other high street traditionals) relies on exploiting uninformed people.
