Nationwide 1, 2, 3 Current Accounts
(firmenpresse) - LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM -- (Marketwired) -- 04/12/13 -- Building Society now has three different current accounts, each designed to meet the varied needs of consumers who either want to open their first current account or who wish to move away from their existing provider.
Nationwide's range of now include:
With each account, customers have access to the Society's range of 'Flexclusives', which include preferential mortgage, savings, personal loan and card deals (conditions apply), plus access to Simply Rewards - a website offering discounts on a range of products and services from top consumer brands.
Phil Smith, Nationwide's head of current accounts, said: "Nationwide has made no secret of its desire to increase its current account market share by offering consumers a real alternative to the big banks.
"The Society now has two accounts with no monthly fee for customers to choose from, plus a fee-paying packaged account aimed at those who will be able to make use of the comprehensive range of benefits on offer.
"While we acknowledge that fee-paying packaged accounts aren't for everyone, there are still a significant number of people who get real use and value from them. Nationwide will continue to offer accounts with no monthly fee for those customers who don't want or won't benefit from a fee-paying packaged account.
"Consumers have the misconception that is a hassle and rather than move provider, they may continue to put up with poor customer service or uncompetitive accounts.
"At Nationwide we have a dedicated team which switches customer's direct debits and standing orders for them, while keeping them informed of progress via text updates.
"Nationwide is continuing its campaign to prove to people that while you do need a bank account, you don't need a bank."
