Hi Adrian -I ran in to difficulty on their website when applying for a savings account. They use Captcha codes, and have an audio alternative for screen reader users, but unfortunately, the link didn't work, no audio got played. I emailed them, and found the customer service very poor! They repeatedly asked me the "exact" nature of the problem, which screen reader I was using, and what was the exact nature of the issue. Each time I clearly indicated what was wrong, but all they did was to pass me to another person or department, who asked me the exact same questions. when eventually I said that I may well choose to decide to let the DDA know of my experience, I got some action, and one of their execs rang me. all this went on over a couple of months, by which time I'd opened an account elsewhere. The captcha thing now works, or did last time I took a look to see. Not my favourite website, or company! -

Hi I use nationwide for my banking, this evening I tried to set up a new regular payment and found the website for a screenreader user especially the part with the regular payments very hard to use, I had to get sighted assistance, am I the only person who struggles with this website, it was ok before they changed it last year.
