Thank you Ruksanah from Kilburn Llyods

After having negative experiences in the Kilburn branch with staff taking so long to help me set up my online banking. Ruksana was a massive help. She helped me with 10min which prior took months. So thank you ruksana for your prompt advice and sorting out a simple IT Issue I hoped someone helped me before with.

Update ! Lloyds Bank: Unethical Coercion, Stalling, and 3 Days of Psychological Distress!

Lloyds Bank’s handling of my fraud case has crossed all ethical boundaries. I demanded a formal complaint to be logged on 28 May 2026. Instead of complying with UK regulations, their support team dragged me through a 72-hour live-chat nightmare. This critical process is clearly being managed by incompetent, overseas offshore agents who have zero professional authority. Even though Lloyds officially admitted a 'Bank Error' in writing, they intentionally withheld my reference number with endless 'shortly' lies, causing severe psychological distress.
The ultimate disgrace occurred when they finally generated complaint number NC14893038 on 31 May—3 days late. Shockingly, they logged this complaint on my behalf but flatly refused to tell me what they actually wrote in the text. Hiding the contents of my own formal file from me is a massive transparency breach.
To top it off, an agent presented me with an unethical ultimatum: either accept a £50 'goodwill' gesture and close the case immediately (Option 1), or forfeit the £50 entirely if I insisted on escalating my case to a Complaint Manager (Option 2).
Credit instruments demand the highest level of security and professional handling. Lloyds Bank completely ignores the psychological and financial impact on fraud victims. Conditioning an agreed compensation on whether a customer exercises their lawful right to an investigation is a textbook breach of the FCA Consumer Duty. I have rejected their financial bribery, chosen the formal escalation, and am presenting this entire transcript of customer intimidation directly to the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS)

As you’ve now received a complaint reference, this will be reviewed by our dedicated complaints team, who will contact you directly with a full response once their investigation is complete.
They’ll also consider the concerns you’ve raised about how the case has been handled.

No statements or 0% expiry date ever published for credit card

I needed to view the expiry date of an interest free balance transfer on a credit card account online. Apparently this information is on my pdf statements. However, I have no way of knowing if this is true or not as none are visible or appear to have been created for for this account. I call customer service and get stuck in a loop with various people from the credit card and banking teams for 50 minutes. I have to end the call as I have to work. I have raised a complaint with Lloyds banking services for not providing information about credit products which they are mandated by banking regulations to provide.

Hi Simon. Thanks for taking the time to leave your feedback. I'm really sorry to hear about your experience, I understand how important it is to have clear access to your credit card information, including statements and promotional expiry dates.

Your statements should be available through Online Banking, and they generally include details about promotional offers such as 0% balance transfers. I'm sorry to hear this hasn’t been accessible to you and that you had difficulty getting support when you called, that’s not the level of service we aim to provide.

We also note that you’ve raised a complaint, this will be reviewed by our dedicated team, who will be in touch to investigate and respond fully.

In the meantime, you can message us 24/7 via the Mobile Banking app or Online Banking and ask for your query to be transferred to the complaints team. If you have your complaint reference number to hand, please include this so they can locate and review it more quickly.

Thanks

Indifferent towards fraud.

My wife reported a fraudulent debit on her account. She was in the US at the time and could not have made the transaction. Having reported it, Lloyds replied a couple of days later to say that as she had not been in touch (!!) the case was closed. She is currently having a heated exchange with the automated call handling service. It does not appear to understand basic English, so the interaction is not going well.

I am absolutely amazed that Lloyds’ approach to fraud is so apparently indifferent. I am further amazed that as they are about to lose a customer of 38 years, they don’t appear bothered, especially for £200, chicken feed to an outfit like Lloyds. Shocking and very stressful for her to sort out whilst recovering from jet lag now she is back in the UK. Am amazed they don’t appear to care.

Hi Nick, thank you for your feedback. I’m really sorry to hear about your experience, this sounds incredibly stressful, especially given the circumstances and while your wife was abroad. I can understand how concerning it must be to have a fraud case closed unexpectedly and then struggle to get the support you need. This isn’t the level of service we aim to provide.

Lloyds credit card - avoid at all cost

I had a Lloyds credit card. It is the worst credit card I've had in years of holding many accounts, and I've just cancelled it.

The core problem is an overly aggressive fraud prevention system that makes the card functionally unusable. Routine transactions — buying on Amazon, contactless payments in stores, standard online purchases — are blocked at random, with no explanation. Every time this happens, calling Customer Service means 20–30 minutes on the phone, passed between three agents, and subjected to repeated security checks, just to approve an ordinary purchase.
The Apple Pay issue was the final straw. Adding a card to Apple Pay takes seconds and works flawlessly with six of my other UK credit cards. With Lloyds, I spent another half-hour on the phone with three different people, only to be told it couldn't be added because my iPhone region is set to the United States — despite this being a UK card used in the UK. That's an absurd and entirely avoidable limitation that no other card issuer seems to have.

I've cancelled my account and won't be using Lloyds for anything again. If you want a card you can actually use for everyday transactions without constant friction, look elsewhere.

After 4 attempts trying to transfer my money

After 4 attempts of trying to transfer my money to a friend, using multiple factors, phone responses with codes I get told the transaction is stopped by Fraud. I get in touch with Fraud & the service is so poor - a chap called Anthony failed to listen to my grievance and it was like talking to an AI bot - in fact he should be replaced by AI - it would do a far better job. Rubbish Tech & rubbish service.. a classic example of a bank left behind in the dark ages...

Avoid Lloyds Bank at all costs

I have rated Lloyds Bank before with one or two stars. They certainly don’t understand charities and pursue a KYC process with a computer says no attitude. They closed out our last investigation so we thought ok we may have satisfied them. Paid out small amounts on three occasions as admission of some guilt in the chaotic process.

Then they closed that investigation and opened another asking for more or less the same information as previous. As this issue has taken over 40 volunteer hours to confirm details of nine directors any sane person could see that this issue out of proportion to the time spent. Anyway we tried to answer that query and then received further requests for the same information with a closure notice on our account from the middle of July. Sometimes you must admit defeat so rather than waste more hours trying to satisfy these chaotic charlatans we have now refused to provide any further information or continue to cooperate with Lloyds Bank.

Please do not choose Lloyds Bank to do you business banking or you risk being subject to the same investigation. If you bank with Lloyds and they send you a KYC letter do not waste your time answering it. Apply to open an account with another provider, it’s less hassle and simpler. Reward poor customer service by moving banks.

One final thing on a positive note, the customer service team are very pleasant and try to be helpful. You are though overloading them with explaining issues that simply don’t make sense. On this issue we have tied up that team on upwards of 15 hours trying to understand what is being asked for. So it’s Lloyds paying its team to answer the phone to disgruntled customers that Lloyds have made that way.

PS - the responder from Lloyds is just answering the review, they make no effort to contact us outside of Trustpilot. A hint to the responder, it’s the charity sending you cartoon clowns testing custard pies.

We understand your concerns about the impact this has had on your time and resources, and we’re sorry that this process has felt disproportionate and unclear.
