The new font ruins the app experience. I’m not sure what it is about it. I just don’t like looking at it

Just checked. It looks horrible! Like the writing has been squashed.

Wonder if this is a sign of the way the takeover will go design-wise?

Is the Text Alerts option new in this update?
I had to think about text alerts but I’m sure it’s always been there/
Theres an app feedback form in the help menu

I initially forgave the deisgn update as a work in progress, but the pace of updates doesn’t give me confidence.
The biggest offender is the two different payment designs (one old and one new), depending where the money is coming from.
I find it a frustrating experience when using it now. By contrast, First Direct have really nailed simplicty, while working with old tech.
I used to find the app uninspiring but very reliable. Now its neither.

Looks the same to me, I like NatWest / RBS except for the biometric face thing they have going on. It’s really put me off using it.
Oh Nationwide, something is bit off with them for me now. Very minor, but they’ve removed M series Mac support (and the loss of Apple Watch support) plus the quick balance shortcut on Android is gone.
Making the comparision to First Direct again who have 2 app designs that are quiet respecting of iOS and Android design languages. Sad times as I really liked Nationwide.
You do just cling on to Nationwide in the hope that it will suddenly step up its online game.

The FlexPlus fee is going up.
From 1 December 2024 the FlexPlus account fee will go up from £13 a month to £18 a month , which is an increase of £5 .
Where did you see that? An email?
It’s on the FlexPlus page on their website.

The website confirms it sadly.

It has been a good deal compared to most other accounts, apart from maybe the Virgin M account. I think it still represents reasonable value for money, but no longer such an no brainer choice if you want this type of account.
