Lloyds Banking Group - no balance alert functionality?

Does LBG not have a balance alert functionality? I looked online and in the app and can't find anything. Santander, Barclays, Tesco, etc. all have variety of text and app alerts, Lloyds must have it surely. I searched and found some threads and articles from a few years ago about Lloyds reducing text message alerts but I can't believe they wouldn't allow setting of some basic low and high balance alerts.

    I can't say I have ever noticed alerts on my Lloyds account - but then I would never use them.

    There are plenty of alerts you can set for payments in and out, not sure I've set one for balance though
    Remember the saying: if it looks too good to be true it almost certainly is.

    Just checked in the app, doesn't look like there is. I do use their Smart Alerts (tells you when money is paid in and out) and Spending Alerts.
