  @stevemiddi1 @ArturNadol7566 @LloydsBank I have the internal Natwest interest forecasts and they were all going down at that time.

  Been out to buy a phone packet to allow me to ring NatWest and ask why no transactions are showing on my account today. The guy effectively said 'it's a general problem'. No apology, no suggestion of when it might be resolved, no reassurance that money was safe. British tax-

  @TiceRichard More likely the bankers, Couts & Natwest. Couts CEO in cahoots with the BBC shut down Nigels account a while ago, remember? and had to make a settlement with him because "his views being considered incompatible with the bank's "values or purpose". Revenge or what?

  @AlvinMutyaba @augusteprompt Every bank lets you on and off ramp but for on ramp it’s limited as I say above. Some banks may be friendlier than others and allow slightly higher limits or open a discussion with you based on your personal circumstances (for example, Barclays will, NatWest won’t). I was able to off ramp with no limits and use the proceeds to buy my house, after strict due diligence around source of funds of course. Hence I no longer own or trade any crypto in this difficult market and with this unfriendly regime personally. Regarding leverage trading, I’m not sure. I imagine you could use Hyperliquid with a VPN, not sure if that will become impossible when the new restrictions land. Personally I’ve never traded leverage, that’s too much of a casino for me. I only ever traded spot. And obviously there’s lots of avenues for that. Hence I think it’s an exaggeration to say it’s dead here, but it will certainly become hard to justify once CGT is upped (circling back to my original point).

  @_dobbsey And those working for NatWest in their shittier branches… as I experienced today when I heard a staff member practically yelling somebody’s address.

  @the_k_bizzle @NatWest_Help NatWest disappointing service not on the side of the customer. Its a real shameful service. Flight cancelled check-in 9/2/26 Evidence from airline confirmed the refund and from agent but still chasing Natwest for a full refund this should have been so easy ? Going to Ombudsman !

  £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

  @Weirdgripping84 159 gave him a good run but Natwest **** show should have been the end of him. The fact that Laxman also kept failing in 2002 is what helped pip it in Mongia’s favor coz he bowled.

  @Helixd @OborneTweets It was entirely different. Coutts didn’t debank him. It told him he was no longer welcome as a customer and offered him an ordinary NatWest account - it owns Coutts. It was F who turned it into a victimisation story.

  @Lifeofdavie_ Most banks are shutting down due to 90% automation of processes. I have an account with NatWest, the branch in my town has only 2 staff: One teller/customer advisor and Branch Manager/Lead. Machine to deposit coins, cash in, pin resets, cheques scanners, digitised processes!

  @NatWest_Help NatWest is awful. My partner applied online 6 weeks ago for control over his mum's account (she has dementia). He has power of attorney. He waited a month. No joy. He phoned 3 times. No joy. He went to the branch. No joy. You WILL NOT help him. Utter rubbish. 😡

  My reward for years of customer loyalty to NatWest bank? Their pockets stuffed with profit and the high street branches closed, including WGC. Customer service? Nah, just shareholder fixation…and a failure to support those who’ve supported their company.

  @WSJ NatWest expecting income at the top end of guidance after 9.5% growth is a strong signal that UK banking is in a surprisingly healthy position. higher interest rates have been painful for borrowers but banks are thriving on the margin between what they pay depositors and what they charge on loans. the structural hedge giving them protection means they keep earning even when rates eventually come down. UK banks havent looked this profitable in years

  It literally felt so ******* good to have a million pounds I checked my notifications and saw the NatWest transfer and it was euphoric. I genuinely thought it was real I’ve never had such a vivid dream. There was no weird **** happening

  Natwest Bank just dropped a banger. "Tomorrow begins today" they say. If you set up biometric approval in the mobile app or Voice ID for Telephone Banking, you gave them consent to use this data. As per their email: "From 20th May, Natwest will use ‘legitimate interests’ to process biometric data, instead of your consent. Legitimate interests is a term in Data Protection Law, which means we use your data only when necessary and where we have carefully balanced your rights in the public interest." Bear this in mind as you cannot update your details or send more than £750 without using their biometrics service. @freddienew @DecentraSuze

  @Aodh_MagUidhir @NewnhamTony under FCA regulations NatWest will need to move hq to inside the uk You are the problem in this country - can’t have a sensible conversation with someone who has a differing view so u resort to abuse. Sad that you’re so full of hatred for the uk to make ur stereotype comments

  @PaulReadGB @LifeThruSpecs Credit cards carry insurance by law. They don't like it, and might even claim it's not true. But squirrelled away in a dark corner of their website is a crappy little form to fill in so they can begrudgingly comply with their legal obligations (been there, done it with NatWest).

  @NatWestBusiness @NatWest_Help Dear Natwest, I would like to take this opportunity to say that your in-branch service for business customers is diabolical. Some of us cannot afford to wait for an hour to be served cash. Why can't there be a business queue and a personal queue?!

  🔮BRONDOR ANALYSIS - ethereum:0x4a220e6096b25eadb88358cb44068a3248254675 WILL MAKE A NEW WAVE OF MILLIONAIRES Everyone wants the next 100x memecoin Meanwhile the real money is hiding in the most boring chart in crypto Let me explain why $QNT is set up different and how it actually makes people rich next run THE SETUP NOBODY SEES 🧿 Quant has a max supply of 14.88 million tokens. Not billion. MILLION. For context most coins have billions in supply. QNT has less tokens than some people have Twitter followers. Low supply plus institutional demand equals violent price moves when capital flows in. THE CONTROVERSIAL PART Quant won’t 100x because of hype. It’ll moon because banks are forced to use it. ECB Digital Euro. HSBC. Barclays. Lloyds. NatWest. Bank of England. SWIFT integration. These aren’t partnerships for marketing G. These are live pilots going into production mid-2026. When tokenized deposits go live in the UK the demand for QNT to access Overledger isn’t optional. It’s structural. HOW IT MAKES MILLIONAIRES Here’s the math nobody runs: QNT did $428 ATH in 2021 on pure speculation with zero real adoption. Now it has actual bank integrations and sits at $81. If it just returns to ATH that’s a 5x from here. If institutional adoption pushes it past ATH into price discovery? That’s where generational wealth happens. 14.88M supply means it doesn’t take much capital to send it parabolic. THE UNCOMFORTABLE TRUTH Most people won’t hold it long enough. It’s boring. It moves sideways for months. It doesn’t pump on Twitter hype. It tests your patience until you capitulate right before the move. The millionaires won’t be the traders. They’ll be the ones who understood the thesis and sat on their hands while everyone called them stupid. Low supply. Real adoption. Institutional demand. Patience. That’s the recipe G Not financial advice but the setup is right there for anyone willing to see it DYOR Tribe -Brondor

  @NatWest_Help @NatWest_Help I am in severe financial hardship. Gotogate conceded my £1,298 refund weeks ago, yet NatWest is holding my funds until June 7th. Ombudsman Case PNX-6001799-B1R6 is open. Why won't you provide provisional credit to a loyal customer in need?

  As of 1st June I am going back to being solely self employed and will need a new business account as a Sole Trader. Given up with having a physical branch to go to as we literally only have a HSBC and a NatWest left in my town now 🙃 Have had both a Monzo and Lloyds LTD Company Business accounts before and have a Monzo personal account I quite like. I keep being told Revolut Business is really good now they have their banking license? Most of my payments will be made via BACs either way, only need access for myself and also needs to be able to link up to Xero. What Bank does everyone suggest to go with or even avoid?

  @MartinSLewis @DrFionaCares I am leaving NatWest after 40 yrs because my nearest branch is now over 7 miles away, there are no cash points & they can’t explain why my second set of 2 debit cards refuse to work in card machines. And don’t get me started on bloody Cora… Customer service is dead.

  NatWest Group $NWG completed the acquisition of Evelyn Partners with an enterprise value of £2.7 billion on 30 June 2026. The acquisition transforms NatWest Group's financial planning and investment management capabilities, and it is expected to generate pre-revenue synergies of 20%, increasing fee income and boosting exposure to the structurally higher growth UK wealth market. Evelyn Partners had £69 billion of Assets Under Management and Administration at the end of 2025, which combined with NatWest Group's £59 billion, would have brought total AUMA to £127 billion and total Customer Assets and Liabilities to £188 billion, or c.20% of NatWest Group's CAL.

  Most banks can't afford a $1bn AI transformation. BankrAI gives them the same thing for a fraction of the cost. Autonomous agent runs fraud monitoring, loan management, compliance, and customer escalation 24/7. Built by someone who watched NatWest do it.
