Lack of knowledge and skills to resolve issues

After 4 hours wasted on the virtual chat, the issue was not resolved. There were lots of pre-prepared answers which contradicted earlier incorrect responses. I am very worried that Lloyds Bank no longer have qualified staff with the correct skills, knowledge and training capable of resolving issues. All very worrying.

Lloyds not sending replacement card on time

My card was a month from expiring and I asked them to send a new card, but they refused, saying it will be sent a week before end of the month. It’s past the end of month, card expired and new card still hasn’t arrived. Called and they said they will send another one, expected 7 - 10 working days. So two weeks without a working card. Terrible service. Avoid.

Hi Alcus. Thank you for your feedback. I'm really sorry to hear about your experience and understand how frustrating it must be to be without a working card.

Replacement cards are usually sent automatically before expiry, but we’re sorry to hear there’s been a delay in your case and that this has caused inconvenience. That’s not the level of service we aim to provide.

If you haven’t already, please message us 24/7 via the Mobile Banking app or Online Banking, so we can check the status of your replacement card and look at options to get this resolved as quickly as possible.

Terrible Credit Card - Wide open to Fraudsters

Terrible Bank. Avoid.

I recently got a Credit Card with Lloyds, and had FRAUD on my card and there is no "real" way to remedy the issue without going into a physical branch, and there isn't one in the town where I am now.

The Telephone lines advertised NEVER get you through to anyone, they just ring out, and on one occasion I have held the line from more than 30 mins, waiting to speak to someone. Today I've waited for over 23minutes, after the robot told me that the wait time was 10 minutes. It's a con.

It's so bad that I'm beginning to suspect that they don't EVEN HAVE a call centre... and its all just make believe. I've NEVER managed to get through.

Added to which, you cannot chat online with a human, as they are always experiencing high customer enquiries, and I suspect that there is also no realistic human web support online. It appears to be a couple of guys in a broom-cupboard.

It's a disaster from start to finish.

If there is no realistic way of reporting FRAUD on your card, if you don't have a branch in your town, then is it safe to Bank with Lloyds.

End result: I've lost £40 to a fake online vendor, and I don't have the protection that I have with other card issuers. I will be using my American Express card from now on. They are 10,000% time better in terms of speaking to customers. Their credit card cashback rate isn't as good, but at least you don't get ripped off by fraudsters

Helpful service from Jo at Lloyds Bank Winchester

I had been struggling to navigate on line banking and app and came into the bank to seek assistance. I was seen by Jo who I have now seen on 3 occasions. Jo was extremely kind and helpful, she sorted my problems with clear instructions and quick efficiency.

I am extremely disappointed with Lloyds Bank.
My Lloyds card suddenly cannot be added to Apple Pay. After contacting support, I was told that a “policy block” has been applied for 160 days and that it will only be automatically removed once this period has passed.
This is honestly shocking.
I fully understand that banks need security checks and fraud-prevention systems. I am not asking Lloyds to disclose confidential fraud rules. But blocking a normal customer from using Apple Pay for more than five months, without a clear explanation, without a meaningful manual review, and without offering any additional identity verification process, feels completely unreasonable.
The response I received was basically: use another payment method and wait 160 days.
Apple Pay is not some luxury feature anymore. It is part of everyday banking. Many people rely on it for transport, online payments, subscriptions, travelling, and daily spending. A 160-day block seriously affects normal card usage.
What makes this worse is the lack of transparency. Lloyds did not clearly explain:
why the block was applied;
why the period is exactly 160 days;
whether I can complete extra verification;
whether a human can review the decision;
whether this affects only Apple Pay or other digital wallet services too.
Instead, I received a generic message saying this was done to keep my account and funds safe.
Keeping customers safe is important, but treating customers like they have no right to understand or challenge a decision is not acceptable. Security should not be used as an excuse for poor communication and zero accountability.
I expected much better from a major UK bank.
At this stage, Lloyds has seriously damaged my trust. I want a proper explanation, a manual review, and a fair way to resolve this issue sooner than 160 days.
Until then, I cannot recommend Lloyds to anyone who expects reliable modern banking and proper customer support.

Hi Maksim. Thank you for your feedback. I'm really sorry to hear about your experience and understand how frustrating this situation must be, especially when it’s impacting something as important as Apple Pay.

I understand your concerns around the length of the restriction and the lack of clarity provided. While certain security measures are put in place to help protect our customers and can’t always be detailed, we understand how important it is to feel informed and supported when something like this happens.

This isn’t the level of clarity or service we aim to provide. As you’ve requested a review, we’d recommend contacting us again so a colleague can ensure your concerns are fully reviewed.

Lloyds have closed to many banks

I had to drive over 14 miles to cash in a cheque as the local banking hub will not take cheques. Got to the Skegness bank to find the cheque machine was out of order. There was a large queue, there were three counters but only one had a lady working there. What was so annoying there 4 other women walking about with laptops and not making eye contact with anyone. Surely one of them could had help by working on a counter and reduce the number of people waiting. Really bad service!!

I cannot understand why Lloyds is living in the dark ages when it is such an important bank

I cannot understand why Lloyds, in contrast to rival banks, will not use modern technology to do a password reset. It is absolute nonsense in the days of such advanced technology, to be sending a password reset by post which may take seven days. Do Lloyds really think we can put life on hold while their clunky outdated mechanism decides when it will let me back into my account? I know LLoyds will twitter about the need for security, but none of my other banks use this system of resetting and I have never had a problem with resetting a password with them. My experience is everyday, not just the one I have put in the 'date of experience' box below.

Hi Jacqueline. Thank you for your feedback. I'm really sorry to hear about your experience and understand how frustrating this must feel when you need quick access to your account.

I understand your comments regarding the password reset process. In some cases, we may send activation or reset codes by post as an extra security measure to help protect our customers’ accounts and personal information. I recognise this can feel slower compared to other methods, and we’re always reviewing our processes to improve the balance between security and convenience.

This isn't the level of service we aim to provide.

The new system in Salisbury branch is…

The new system in Salisbury branch is idiotic. A simple thing like cancelling a standing order takes forever with the new queueing system. Appreciate the requirement for customers to go online but there are many many who cannot because of age and the era they were born in.
Today at this time there are at least 5 people waiting to be seen and one staff member just taking people's names as they come in and if they want something done they have to join the queue. Was much easier when if u had a simple request it could be done at the till.Nothing against Salisbury staff who are excellent but think they are bot looking at the needs of older customers. 🤔

Outstanding Digital Banking Experience

I have been genuinely surprised by how good Lloyds has been.

The mobile app and online banking platform are among the best I have used. The user interface is clean, intuitive, and modern, making everyday banking simple and efficient. Everything is easy to find, transactions are clear, and the overall experience feels thoughtfully designed.

What has impressed me most is the combination of excellent UX and customer experience. Too often banks have functional systems that feel outdated, but Lloyds has managed to create a platform that is both reliable and pleasant to use.

Whether checking balances, making payments, or managing accounts, everything works smoothly and without unnecessary complexity. It is clear that a lot of attention has been given to the customer journey.

A fantastic banking experience so far. Highly recommended for anyone who values great digital banking and a well-designed app.
