Have had an account with them for 2 years. They started blocking my transactions because they look "suspicious". Last time around, the same transaction was made by several friends from their own accounts at different banks (we were all buying tickets to the same event from the same website) and guess what - only my transaction got rejected twice and I had to spend 15min on a customer call only to be able to spend £100 from my own account.. Have asked the customer service and they say there is no other way around this, not even a text confirmation instead of me calling them every single time. I'll give it 2 more strikes before switching bank.

The worst customer service and the managers are no better. Had to hang on the phone for almost 1.5 hours and no solution to a genral enquiry about why the exchnage rate was note visible on my statement for a withdrawal i made from a cashpoint in spain. Incompetent, simplistic and very disillusioned bank.

Horrible! If I could give zero stars, I would. Every time something goes wrong I spend HOURS on the phone with them! They give you bad information, and then the next time they say 'oh sorry I don't see that in my notes... too bad, it's at your cost now'. I just spent 190 minutes - NEARLY THREE HOURS - just so that I could request a new card and get some non sterling transaction fees reimbursed as they said they were going to do the last time I called and spent 2 hours on the phone with them. Lloyds bank brings me to tears! I'm leaving them immediately.

Another example of fulfilling an obligation, Customer Services, without actually fulfilling the obligation. Of the four advisors I spoke to, I got cut off three times, not one of them stopped speaking long enough to register my enquiry. I did persist for 15 mins which was responded to by 'I understand your frustration'. My frustration is that increasingly the notion of Customer Service is a fallacy.

The worst banking experience i have ever had. All we tried to do was change business account signatories but Lloyds are not able to do this so far. Its been a month now and we haven't been able to access the account. I wont list the rubbish I've been told along the way , all i can say is AVOID THESE DISORGANIZED RABBLE.

The Lloyds bank leaflet The M Word, shows the poor judgment and how out of touch they are. So may find these leaflets very offensive.

MBNA have been sold to Lloyds Bank hence all the current problems and bad experiences. Lloyds have a reputation for destroying businesses by trying to fix things that are not broken. I have been with MBNA for twenty years roughly and it was a fantastic service. Over all those years not single problem until Lloyds Bank got their destructive hands on the business. All systems were easy to use and payment online took seconds. Customer Service answered with a real person in seconds and dealt with issues very quickly and within five minutes as a rule. Now Lloyds have given MBNA the kiss of death and the entire system is now a shambles. Customer Service is a joke with half interested and poorly trained staff giving all the wrong information and unable to sort out the most simple of things. If they get involved calls are routinely ignored, no call backs, and advice almost always wrong plus hanging on the line has gone from zero to upwards of an hour listening to music and untrained staff passing the parcel all day. Online payment is often impossible and filled with weird messages ranging from thanking you for making a purchase to telling you are paid then immediately telling you the opposite a few seconds later. Messages then sent to mobile phones ( for those that own them ) can take so long that by the time they arrive the payment session has ended and you have to start again from scratch. That is of course if and when the system is functioning. The platform is a mess and cannot be trusted. Payments arrive late and then you have to start an argument with the elusive and badly trained 'Customer Service' staff that is if you have at least an hour of your life to waste getting nowhere. Good luck with that lot. Even signing in to your own account has become a massive chore and has been littered with trip wires that will lock you out of your own account or send you around in circles. The time has come to steer well clear of what was once the very best card service available until clever cloggs Lloyds came along and decided it knew better ! No wonder Lloyds have been bailed out so many times for messing up. Even the most recent public money bail out seems to have slipped through their fingers. They will never learn. Give this card a miss folks and if you are unfortunate to have one then dump it or risk endless problems and frustration with the famously impossible to deal with Lloyds Bank. A serious business run by rank amateurs and school leavers who think they know it all.

This bank is not to be trusted. I was defrauded out of £1500 and the bank helped the crook to my cash. Their fraud team is based off shore, they work from script, no sympathy, empathy or common sense. I will never forget how helpless I felt as my own bank worked tirelessly to basically aid and abet a theft and treat me with contempt. The UK staff were a lot friendlier and sympathetic but the approach was always hands off and I was never under any illusion that my money was gone and Lloyds were desperate to wash their hands off the outcome. If you want a bank that can be trusted with your money, Lloyds is not it, not in a million years.

With Lloyds for 40 odd years had several loans , all paid back without fault ,never had bad debt ,still working , no mortgage ,but still turned down for a small loan, I guess a good credit rating and loyalty counts for nothing with this bank.

This is the worst bank that I have ever used. They are laggy the customer interface is not intuitive. Simple things like making inter account transfers become extremely difficult because there a number of steps that they do not list instructions for on the website so you have to call a service agent to help you figure it out. Today I was kicked off the bank 4 times while trying to run my employee's payroll and each time it took 20 minutes before the bank would even let me try to log back in, it just displays the message "commercial banking temporarily unavailable". Our company will be taking it's business elsewhere very soon.
