Lloyds Banking Group Chat šŸ«

Didn’t work for me sadly, the response I got was:
Unfortunately, I tried to add your card into Apple pay but after reviewing your account, it appears we have not received a request to add your card to Apple Pay, so I am unable to do so.
No worries! Please call our Wallet Pay team

So basically still got nowhere. I’m at week 7 of the 8 week wait on my complaint, doesn’t look like I’ll be getting anywhere with that either.

@Boring says they know about it but aren’t treating it as a priority to fix :frowning:

I’m 1 year in and still unable to add it; this is via a brand new account too

Yes, but I don’t mind them too much.

What sort of rate are you getting on that Premier Saver? I can’t see mention of that anywhere on their website

It’s a renamed account - I just called it that to differentiate from my advantage saver.

A whopping 1.4% - it’s a slush fund of ā€œtouchableā€ savings vs those either with withdrawal restrictions or investments.

Ah I see, thanks

Could I ask you guys advise on something please? I’m a bit confused by it!
I have:
Club Lloyds Platinum
Classic

If I wanted Lloyds Premier take the place of the Club Lloyds Platinum, would I have to:
Downgrade Club Lloyds Platinum
Upgrade that to Premier
Upgrade the Classic to Platinum

Is that the way I’d have to do it? I don’t quite meet the Ā£5k per month wages going in, so I’m thinking of bouncing the remainder in and out of the Premier account - can that be done from a Lloyds Savings account into the Premier and out again, or does it have to be from another bank?

Thanks!

So basically premier is the, well, premier version of Club Lloyds. So you would be best downgrading your Club Platinum to a Platinum and opening a separate premier account.

Or if you didn’t want the insurance aspects you can do what I did which is just to upgrade my Club Lloyds Platinum account. I wouldn’t recommend doing that unless you can be absolutely sure you definitely don’t want the platinum account as it will cause all manner of pain.

You can have both a premier and a platinum account just not two club accounts.

I’m in a similar position and this is what I’ve been doing (transfer out of Lloyds saving and back in again) without hitch so far.

Thank you for taking the time and giving me the advice, it’s much appreciated

I honestly don’t know why they offer that chat, apart from the one time I was able to change the collection date on my CC, it’s never once helped and always asked to call.

I think it serves the most basic questions like how to download a statement. Anything that requires a brain will not be welcome :joy:

I’ve just opened a Premier account yesterday alongside my platinum account.

Since I opened the Premier account I’ve been unable to add any of my cards to apple pay. I spoke to the wallet team and they tried to add me to a whitelist which would allow me to add the cards for 24 hours, however she said that it wont work.

So basically as a Premier customer you can’t use apple pay even if you have another account with Lloyds.

@JIMMWX could?

It’s getting more widespread now, there are lots of people here, Reddit, other forums, X, etc, all saying they are having trouble with specifically Lloyds Visa debit cards.

Lloyds are playing ignorant, the only acknowledgement I’ve seen of the issue is on here from @boring who said they are aware behind the scenes but are treating it as low priority.

So who know if and when it will ever get fixed. Carlo has been waiting over a year, I’m a few months in, with no sign of any help.

They picked up my complaint today so will see what comes of it.

The annual would be 21st July I think, so a full 365 days.

It’s not new cards, because when the issue originally started, that older card had been on Apple Pay before that point in time.

Same with mine, I had my Platinum debit card on Apple Pay and they sent out a new card with the new Silver design on it. It didn’t update in Apple Wallet with the new card number or design so I removed it to add it back on and then couldn’t add it.

They’ve said they added me to whitelists, to wait an hour before doing it again and nothing just ā€œContact card issuer for more informationā€.

I’ve been back and fourth through CS, fraud team and the digital wallet teams.

Think this might become a complaint.

I don’t think it would have straight away, but will have done within a few days and most certainly once the old card expired after 30 days.

Yes it was long after that which is why I tried to ā€˜nudge’ it by removing and re-adding.

I wish I hadn’t now as at least it was working back then.
