  @stephenpollard Tesco/NatWest comparison assumes all businesses are the same. But Rail is a natural monopoly and already depends heavily on the state. It's a question of public service versus commercial service. Rails different as passengers can't switch provider in any meaningful sense.

  £200 Billion GBP just left my account to pay for everyone university debt from 1999 up until 2026 in both the UK and America. It’s fine, I’ve been making some wise investments lately and NatWest are paying me well, and I earnt quite a bit by selling Barclays back to the Baron’s. So I’m good for it, plus on top of the tour and then the vegas shows, I’ll be able to support both Elle, I and our daughter from my income. So, I’m good for it. Lot’s of changes, as this earth spins, everyday, and let’s just make the spins count. - King Oseary - @AP

  @Ste_Collins I’m an NatWest customer and I got my daughter rooster because it doesn’t cost me anything per month & it’s connected to my bank account and it’s really easy to use and you can add chores to it and when she does the chores she gets a bit of money

  @Londonist @DCBMEP “…began in 1971. ..nine years to realise.” (Working closely with Seiferts from 1975, as PQS for the now the Sea Containers Hotel, I was told that the delay in the NatWest Tower was as a result of a redesign for the tower footprint to match the new NatWest logo).

  @RenovatioFurius @OwenBenjamin One of my relatives in Pakistan does “Islamic” microfinance. Microfinance being loans for the poor. Their “legal system” allows them to scam a person with a banana stand in a slum. It’s more moral that a country allow NatWest for a working-class person to inflate their lifestyle.

  c22cuk COMMENT: State Supported COMPLICITY? BANK CONFIDENTIAL @BankConfidenti1 - An independent report exposing concealed credit-line risk, systemic fraud and regulatory failure across Major Banks shown below. How many unknowingly in the ROI and UK have succumbed to these alleged FRAUDS and remain unaware, do read the Lorraine Morris @MLorrM Bank Confidential attachment in her Post (and her own summary statement contained therein) and if it triggers doubt, suspicion and concern in your mind that you might have been duped, Lorraine will no doubt point you in the direction of possible help - It would appear that these Frauds are still ongoing. The banking misconduct detailed in the Bank Confidential reports primarily occurred in the buildup to, during, and after the global financial crisis, broadly spanning from 2000 to 2017 (with certain related over-charging practices and legal disputes continuing to this day). The primary Banks named are - NatWest Group (formerly Royal Bank of Scotland Group) RBS-Global Restructuring Group (GRG) NatWest Ulster Bank Lloyds Banking Group (including HBOS) Barclays HSBC Coutts (a private banking subsidiary of NatWest Group) “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing”.

  @AskNationwide This is exactly why I’ve now taken my 3 accounts to NatWest. Nationwide are so behind with the times with their procedures & systems. NatWest can usually fix everything online without having to call them. People don’t have time to call companies & wait on hold for ages anymore!

  @MmisterNobody Yes when I was going through an awful time I lost all my savings after listening to a bunch of fools about crypto. Pretty much everything I owned did well for a few weeks and all kinds of rich clowns be talking about HODL this HODL that like they're all some sort of secret alliance with the elites. I literally would have a bunch of different types of currencies so I had a variety. I could keep someone in for a good while and the moment I sold my bit of a specific coin, it would get a massive boost lol. One of them boost by like 10x within hours after me taking it out like they do it on purpose or something. The rest that I kept in just went down pretty much every day and some got rug pulled out of nowhere lmao. In the end I ended up that ****** up I made a stupid decision to take a loan out for only £10 grand where I got charged nearly £4-5 grand in interest from NatWest in just under a year. I ended up losing everything and I was guided to go insolvent lol. Still ****** now from it all and many people have the cheek to steal things from me. They want me dead, quietly suffering or locked up. They've told too many lies on my name because they couldn't take me out. Some of them have made a whole life out me these last few years too. It's quite hilarious. *********.

  I did exactly that with NatWest and got an apology and compensation. (Think it was £100) Clearly an issue with training that needs highlighting.

  I've designed products used by 50M+ people across Sky, Virgin Media, NatWest and Citibank. AI didn't make that experience less valuable. it made the gap between good judgment and no judgment impossible to ignore. here's what's actually changed in 2026...

  MIke (@MrMikeCS) reported 46 minutes ago

  @donmcgowan Complete crap. Alison Rose, CEO of Coutts, dmitted to a "serious error of judgement" in discussing Farage's accounts publically. Rose resigned as CEO of NatWest Group with immediate effect after that.

  Ali@Makely (@MakelyStudio) reported 47 minutes ago

  the thing AI has never once been able to do is walk into a room, understand the real problem before anyone's articulated it, and make a call that changes the direction of the product. I've done that at Sky, Virgin Media, NatWest and Citibank. that's still the job. and it always will be.

  Andrew Tate explains how they hit one button and erased his ENTIRE life just because he was put on a terror list "Went to click Twitter. Twitter signed out. Clicked WhatsApp. Your WhatsApp's been deleted. Clicked Instagram. Of course, signed out. Clicked Gmail. Signed out. They pressed a button, Jack, and wiped every single thing from my phone. The Apple ID itself, so I couldn't download apps, and every single application was logged out. Uber, Airbnb, Skype, any app on my phone, all of them were gone. Coinbase? Everything. Every single app. All of my bank accounts.Coinbase. I had a NatWest and a HSBC bank in England. They seized all that money. Talk about that soon. Everything was frozen. Everything was gone. My entire phone just became a brick. And I called a friend of mine from my girlfriend's phone. I said, how ******** can they do this? And he said, they put you on a terror watch list. They can only do that if you're on a terror watch list."

  @AndrewAndru2012 @VerdeSelvans the phone is still usable while it’s indexing, but expect it to feel a bit slower, warmer, and with higher battery drain for the first few days (sometimes up to a week depending on how much data you have especially photos and messages). It runs in the background.On UK banking apps: so far most people are reporting that Monzo, Barclays, Starling, NatWest, Santander etc. are working fine on iOS 27 beta.Rollback is possible but annoying you’ll need to restore via a computer in recovery mode, and you’ll lose data unless you have a backup from before you installed the beta. Beta backups don’t always restore cleanly to older versions.

  @NatWest_Help And now, 1.5 months later, he STILL can't access her bank account!!! NatWest staff entered his phone number incorrectly. So he can't receive a code to log on. He's asked them several times to change it. They say they'll change it. They haven't mayo do that very hard task 😡😡😡😡

  @BlueCityBrain Was going to do a post on it soon. I very much doubt an initial decision is still pending. For context, NatWest Markets plc v Bilta (UK) Ltd [2021] was ordered a retrial when its decision was still waiting after 19 months at the High Court. Chancellor of the High Court absolutely blasted it. He said decisions like these should need a good reason to take over 3 months in the courts and if they do, they get closely monitored. For it to take this long in private arbitration when there’s a requirement in the rules for a decision as soon as practicable… and the arbitrators have been working on other cases… totally inexcusable if it weren’t already out. Career enders. A hearing on sanctions and final award should be quick too. So no excuses. Only 2 possibilities I see: 1) Final Award is coming imminently. By end of July. 2) They have it but they’re waiting for the end of the World Cup (they shouldn’t be and could open themselves up to damages) 3) City launched an appeal after the decision on liability was issued and before the hearing on Sanctions

  @tescomobile Upgraded in Feb 2026 with ZERO issues + NatWest Direct Debits paid monthly since July 2023. Yet @TescoMobile blames ME after their IT corrupted my file back to an old Lloyds record?! Blaming customers for internal database rollbacks violates UK GDPR Art 5(1)(d). Embarrassing.

  There is some truly terrible disinformation regarding the job cuts at NatWest Gibraltar and the EU-UK Treaty. Neither are connected and anyone trying to make a relation between the two has an agenda with intent #Gibraltar
