  @OmniSteve @LloydsBank @NatWest_Help They waited for the official final switch day - when NatWest closed my account - to then cancel. If there was an issue with my application it should have been dealt with much sooner.

  @sewateruk With @NatWestGroup stating that Natwest Pension Fund Trustee will use its "influence as a minority shareholder to direct SEW’s board to ensure these issues are fully resolved." Are you expecting a shareholder revolt & vote of no confidence in the CEO & Board?

  @NoToDigitalID @FlowerdewBob Sorry but this is being misused to stir up outrage. I bank with NatWest. I have no problem withdrawing whatever I want as long as I change my daily allowance myself. If I keep it low someone who steals my card or details can’t withdraw £2000: my choice

  RBS - the bad news never stops for this entity. Whilst an old story coming to a conclusion it is reminds us for just what an awful business RBS became, surely it is time for NatWest to vaporise this brand and its culture (for the benefit of shareholders as well as just because)? See more below @stockmark_it

  @NoToDigitalID Might ask for an invoice now to get cash to pay a bill? None of your business banks. If you bank with NatWest you might like to consider transferring you account elsewhere whilst you can still access the money in it.

  @Big_Mck I used to once use my NatWest, Lloyds card in Nigeria ATM. No issue. Problem started with Buhari

  @jet2tweets are you aware of PSD2 SCA booking issues with NatWest credit cards. @NatWest_Help are saying you cannot transact with each other and my credit card gets declined. Very poor joint experience

  Smiley Culture: NatWest On Line (1986). This is one of two adverts reggae star Smiley Culture did for the bank, promoting their On Line bank accounts aimed at teenagers. UK banks leaned heavily into the teenage market in the 1980s, on the assumption that customers rarely changed bank accounts. If you got the customer young they would stay with you for life, so why not give them a cash card and a free sports bag when they were 14?

  There needs to be something about Ultra @Revolut but just below private banking I'd love that concierge service NatWest are marketing to me but at Revolut

  @JimCognito2016 Banks have been closing down for years. NatWest in my area have nearly all closed. Not sure how he can pin it on Labour.

  @NatWest_Help Need to make a serious complaint. I’ve spoken to the staff at 03457 888 444 about 10 times and they are incapable of solving the problem. If this isn’t solved in 1 week then I will take my entire savings out of my NatWest account and shut the account down.

  @Morrisons idk why but you had an issue with NatWest card online for days, today my order was cancelled because somehow you have an issue with the TSB card which was accepted when placing the order. Awesome. Might have to be the first and last time I shop Morrisons home delivery.

  @StephenMulhern You could come and see the duck outside the job centre in Heanor, or I could take you down the road to Ilkeston where the top rated thing on Trip Advisor is a hole in the wall next to NatWest

  @Loopify @trader1sz I’ve had NatWest since I was 16 years old never had a problem. Linked to my Coinbase transferred probably £30mil through since 2016. However when they did flag one of my txs I upgraded account to black account which is like Amex black card. Have to retain a £100,000 balance at all times etc etc this allowed me to buy £250k of XRP, twice in 2019. So yeah upgrade your account.

  @kartik_kannan Impossible, not even news… but thats also the reason I sat through the entire Natwest final in 02 because I was leaving for the US right after that & was afraid that i may not get to see another game for a few years… though that didn’t happen… but glad i sat through that game.

  @NatWest_Help hey folks! My sister banks with you still - she’s just found a car that my dad will buy for her. She needs to transfer £7k from her account to him also a NatWest customer. How can she temporarily up her limits?

  @InterGo10 “We had a very large customer that we announced Barclays. They did 20,000 Ultimate seats and 20,000 Duo seats. We also announced a number of other customers such as Anthropic, CACI, NatWest and Amazon.”

  @DegenerateNews This is a big deal! Barclays and NatWest are known for hating crypto. They legit will close down your account if you deal with crypto in the past.

  Bit of a strange reaction to NatWest purchase of Evelyn Partners - make it make sense - 10% down?
