I received a message from Lloyds about fraudulent activity. I called them a couple of times, and after waiting for over 20 minutes each time, I called again and chose the option of a call back. They called me back within an hour and put me through the fraud department where after waiting for 40 minutes, no-one responded. Horrible customer service. It's surprising how declined like this. I used to be very happy with them as they used to respond to phone calls in no time.

Lloyds increased my overdraft charges by 785% when my mother was dying of cancer & I lost my job trying to help her. Soon after she died I was diagnosed with cancer & whilst undergoing treatment Lloyds foreclosed on my overdraft (although I was paying a proportion of the collossal monthly charges) & caused so much stress I had to have an extra 4 weeks of treatment. They blocked my credit card too although I had never defaulted on payments. I tried to pay in a balance transfer to lower the Lloyds debt & was unable to because the Lloyds branch refused to update my telephone number on my account. I am 58 with 2 degrees & I was spoken to as if I was a school child. Avoid this bank like the plague.

"No problems insuring my car with Lloyds , the annual premium was excellent value , unfortunately I used a Cashback site , offering \u00a330 cashback never honoured the cashback , it was showing \u2018pending\u2019 in my account for 6 months . I raised a ticket at 3 months then 6 months after being investigated it was apparently \u201ctoo long \u201c to trace . So can\u2019t fault the premium I paid for Lloyds , although had I received the \u00a330 cashback it would have been brilliant BUT NOT LLOYDS FAULT . Would go direct to Lloyds for car insurance quote next time sue soon . "

I hate this bank with a rageful passion. Site is always down, phone lines always busy and yet they randomly decide to close my accounts on many occasions for entirely legitimate transactions, saying the only way to open them again is to waste an hour in a phone queue. Randomly froze my card a few months ago, called up and they basically just said oops don't know how that happened. THEY FROZE ALL MY MONEY AS AN 'OOPS'. How on earth do you accidentally freeze an entire account?!?!?! Ridiculous. I'm writing this as I'm on hold with them right now because they froze my account again last week after I dared to try and pay my flat deposit to an entirely legitimate company. I ended up paying the deposit through my account with Starling Bank and they just made me fill in a few extra details and provide some documentation to show the transaction was legit and it went through fine. Took 5 minutes and guess what? I can still access my starling bank account! So basically Lloyd's is useless and stupid and there are infinite better alternatives to this awful bank. Words cannot explain the hatred I have for this bank - can't wait to leave!!!!!!

I asked for a new debit which I was told would be sent in 3-4 working days last week. It has not arrived until now after 5 working days.The customer service is hopeless. I can't do transaction and my subscriptions have failed as I don't have a new card.very poor service.

"Lloyds Bank was chosen from a comparison site. The change from my previous insurer went smoothly. The premium was competitive for the cover provided."

Last Fri, I sent GBP to my Lloyds USD A/C, Lloyds used (Ex%1.1494). On the same day, I sent US$ out from my USD A/C to my another GBP A/C (not Lloyds), |Lloyds used (Ex%1.2154) which was 5.74% higher than 1.1494. It means they had charged me GBP400+ in that exchange (US$ to GBP). Lloyds is using an extreme high Ex% for USD to GBP that isn't based on the market. (The price is around 0.865 in 0.85 out for US$ to GBP). What the Ex% Lloyds bank refer to? (1.1494 in 1.2154 out ?????) They robbed (looted) my money in that way!!!! I found that Lloyds bank (or British banks) is dishonest and their customer services are awful! Very rude, they just hang up the phone if they don't want to talk with you (they treat their customer as if we can't do anything without them, just think that you can cancel the account anytime if you are not happy). Very impolite! I am disappointed from the image of British! I am thinking to put my $$ to other foreign banks instead!

I moved to the UK for work and one of the requirements for that is to have a UK bank account. Firstly, it is very inconvenient to have to start the bank application whilst you are in the country, all that could be needed is proof of identity or a pdf with visa acceptance letter. Secondly, I have had to get assistance with setting up my account and hand in additional documents. So I have visited the branch around 4/5 times in the past month, which is a nuisance because these matters are always delayed for the weekend. Opening hours for the closest branch to me (Oldham) opens from 9am-5pm which spans the normal work day and therefore, issues cannot be settled after my shift is done (my job does not allow me to have more than a 30min break so going and settling it there and then during the week is not an option). Thirdly, (most of) the clerks working at the branch are not helpful and they often need to refer to colleagues or the manager because it seems like they never dealt with foreigners opening accounts or answering simple questions like the requirements for handing in tax residency documents. Fourthly, I had an experience that they were required to scan and verify my passport. The clerk mistook a previously expired visa with my photo on it as the photographic ID page on my passport. Had it not been caught, the submission of the document would have been delayed and another few hours wasted going to the bank to settle this issue. In addition, whenever we are opening a bank account, they have this corner where you are invited to sit on this low lying sofa. Then they start asking you questions upon questions if you don't have the necessary documents, whilst they are stood up. Frankly, this is a very intimidating situation to be in and it heightens anxiety which is only made worse. In addition, even after bringing the right documents, they ask you a bucket load of questions on whether this document is enough for them to accept and start asking you to provide other information like the NI number which was never previously mentioned whilst at the bank in the weeks before. In addition, I do not appreciate that the scanner/printer is in a side room away from the til. So whenever you need to hand in a document needed to be scanned, they take it to this room, spend at the very least 5mins scanning it and chatting to their coworkers and then slowly come back to hand the document back. I wonder how they never mixed up different clients documents.

For almost 20 years I've been a customer of Lloyds Bank. I used to be almost resident in various countries, from the least developed to the highly developed. I haven't had any reason for disappointment. Instead, bank service is always on the top. In 2022 I am quite frequently visiting the Strand branch of the bank in London. I want to say a BIG THANKS to the whole team and the manager. Always helpful, always professional, always kind and trustful. THANKS for highly professional approach. It is very important to all, but especially foreigners.
