Poor telephone manner.
Poor telephone manner. However my complaint to the bank was not upheld based on cherry picked selected portions from the tape.
During my call I was given a massive amount of instructions to follow to navigate around to the refer a friend that can only de done via the phone APP I later found out after also being told on the chat earlier that it can also be done on PC too. Back to the telephone and when I said too hard to follow the long and the long list of instructions she read out on how to get to refer a friend in the phone APP all at once. Rather than given easy step by step instructions. I was told no its not hard to follow, its quite easy. Or try going to your local branch.
I found her demeanour very poor and said I will hang up and I did that. I rang back and the next person helped me in a matter of minutes in a warm and friendly manner.
First complaint I had made in 50 years with Lloyds bank so I don't moan without good reason. No apologies to me at all throughout the whole long and protracted saga. They are sending me a letter in the post so I will see if any apologies on that despite me telling them it caused me significant distress. If not I may have to report Lloyds Bank to the Financial Ombudsman. Also I may have to further review my business with Lloyds when my fixed rate ISA matures if the present rates elsewhere are not to low by now.
I gave it an extra star because this was the first complaint instance in approximately 50 years with Lloyds Bank despite the stress I felt during the problem telephone call.
I had forgotten I had already sent a review on 21st January 2026 about the navigation in the phone APP and was told at least my comment would be passed to the developers., which was a much better response.

Oh yes that's a good idea, I could contact you on the telephone again.
