    @michael_merrick @NatWest Oh. That makes sense now. Assuming the plan is to secure a new deal ASAP due to rising rates (I’m guessing here), you could move elsewhere and borrow the additional funds to pay ERCs. You will pay additional interest, however. I do think a good broker will help.

    DO NOT APPLY for a new @NatWestGroup credit card for use abroad. Ridiculous technical demands, three telephone calls, one branch visit (all lovely people) and STILL NO CARD. And I have been a customer for 40 years AND already have a NatWest Credit Card.

    What an utter shitshow @NatWest_Help and @RBS_Help are 🤬 quite frankly, they have stolen our money, holding it hostage while they hope we forget about the issue and stop pestering them. Having RBS deal with a fraud report made in error by NatWest is just ridiculously stupid.

    @NatWest_Help hey Natwest - I'm a female traveling solo in Europe and you decided to block my debit (visa) card without previous notice. Just spoke to Palwhart and he said he can't do anything. Can you solve this? It's critical that I keep access to my card. For my own safety!!

    Logging into my Natwest to check how many pennies are left in my planned monthly overdraft to be greeted with a promise of help with the cost of living… to be taken to a page about free financial counselling? ****** slap to my ugly *** mug.

    @14_aryanp Not a huge Ganguly fan but you can’t say this for him 1. He took over the captaincy when we were in a terrible state and left us when when we were way better 2. Backed the likes of Viru, Dhoni & Yuvi. Yuvi had a very mediocre record up until the Natwest 3. Took us to the WC final

    @NatWest_Help It’s okay nationwide provided the service without issue and was bemused that NatWest didn’t… they’ll receive my custom from now on.

    @HalifaxBank So with the smart Money account she can have a savings account on her own app? (I’m trying to be 100% as I just went down this path with Natwest & in the end they lied - I had to have the savings a/c on my app!

    @NatWest_Help international transfer made on 27 July. Still not arrived, every week…ring back in 5 working days…can I escalate please…yes, my supervisor will ring you…in 4 working days. No idea where the money is or if I will hear from the supervisor. Not good enough NatWest

    @Mr_H1978 O Levels for me. I'd been working full-time for a month for NatWest and took the afternoon off. Just needed to get 4 Cs or better, including Maths and English, to confirm my job. Whole process took about 10 minutes from memory.

    @MartinSLewis Hi Mr Lewis, @NatWest_Help are forcing me & all their customers to have @TransUnion credit scoring on their account app, surely we should be allowed to opt out of this if we don’t want it? Any help appreciated. NatWest never asked my permission to share my info.

    @NatWest_Help There's also nothing on your website that says you need a Natwest current account when opening an Instant Saver account.

    A transaction made many times before is now all of a sudden a problem? Strange. Time to close accounts and go elsewhere where. Bad form. 👎🏼 #banksdonotcare #natwest #financialcontrol

    @NatWest_Help Hmmm….why? Just tell your mortgage company to stop texting me about my mortgage, I am no longer a NatWest mortgage customer, you drove me away with poor rates and non existent customer service.

    Well, that's the THIRD time I've had to contact Natwest to close my help to buy ISA. Hopefully now, with them setting it to be urgent, it'll be closed this time.

    @LloydsBank Still having issues logging in. Worrying times ahead. Natwest working fine. Barclays working fine, monzo working fine. Lloyds... no, not good enough.

    @NatWestGroup Employees in RBS India Claimed Forged Bills under their Service For Tax Evasion. I can provide the proofs that can be verified. Plz provide a valid email id to share.I am also sharing the same with Income Tax department India as RBS Natwest approved such forged docs

    @NatWestBusiness finally got access to online banking. Now I’m told that NatWest staff changed the format of my phone number, and now I’m in a three day cooling off period on restricted access, with no explanation as to why it’s necessary. Can’t find anything online about this!

    @LloydsBank No it’s not back to normal! I tried paying for car repair and was embarrassed as it wasn’t working! If it wasn’t for my friend that’s with NatWest and she was kind to pay for me I wouldn’t be able to collect car! Sort it please. Still does not work.

    @NatWest_Help Hey NatWest, I have applied to open an account with yourselves and have uploaded my identification documents. I hoped to use the switch guarantee service but wasn't given this option? Will I be able to do this once my ID has been verified? Thank you
