    My father passed away over 4 months ago and Natwest are still dragging their feet to release his bank funds, despite 2nd May having everything they needed and saying "10 working days" No communication - their Bereavement team is an absolute joke.

    @bremner1919 @FabrizioRomano I called at NatWest cashpoint down from where IKEA is now in Sheffield. He saw my Leeds sticker in the car and did the Leeds salute & I didn’t recognise him. It’s me Mel Sterland he said and embarrassingly I didn’t recognise him as he was so big at the time!

    @Morrisons Hi Morrisons, trying to place an order with you but the website is saying both my Natwest debit card and my Wifes debit cards aren't accepted by the system? They are VISA cards, and we want to confirm our order please advise.

  • fife782 @fife782 (@fife782) reported

    @Ryan29066263 I use NatWest so kinda similar. Can't say I've ever had any problems with them yet though

  • timskintwo Tim Woodward (@timskintwo) reported

    Is anyone a lawyer, able to help me prise money owed by NatWest from from the bank account of an old friend who has died?

  • DalSoft DalSoft 🇺🇦 (@DalSoft) reported

    @Adam_Hosker I think we need what Open Banking did for bank accounts we need for mortgages, tech that ties together all the third parties rather than expecting users to use 4 or 5 different portals. My experience with #natwest was terrible in 2022, everything is emailed, no processes etc

  • kpa421 koopa (@kpa421) reported

    @virginmedia it's been 2 months now and you website is still not accepting bill payments from @NatWest_Help debit cards. Natwest have already said its your website not updated for new security measures (government imposed). Seriously, what are you doing about this?

  • AlloTisI Tis I Michelle 😉 (@AlloTisI) reported

    @LebbyRachel1 @Iromg Or... "Crazy times" 🤪 Be right back... on a mission to see weather Natwest support this @HalifaxBank pronoun crap.

  • DanielRoyParkin Daniel Parkin #StrongerTogether (@DanielRoyParkin) reported

    Not sure what’s happening with British Industry at the moment but service has definitely fallen well below satisfactory. Incident today at NatWest - old man who clearly had money in his account wanted money out for food as forgotten PIN. Asst said they couldn’t help and to 1/2

  • Little_LuLu_X LuLu 🔞😈🐶 (@Little_LuLu_X) reported

    @DelphiDoggo @JoeyBDSM For savings accounts then NatWest or HSBC are usually the best. Stay far from Lloyds for a savings accounts as their interest rates are **** xxx

  • ushasundaram Usha Sundaram (@ushasundaram) reported

    @BettyJa08291909 Been with Natwest for well on 17 yrs, nothing fancy, just straightforward current a/c, salary, direct debits. Don't have overdraft, don't need one but they're good & branch staff are great. If not Nationwide, got my mortgage with them, cust. service is bloody brilliant!

  • BlaineCoughlan Blaine Coughlan 👬🏳️‍🌈 (@BlaineCoughlan) reported

    @andrew_b72 @ReSistersU This story is ridiculous garbage. And, even if it were actually true, where would these customers go anyway? HSBC & NatWest have both tweeted their full support for Halifax on this non-issue too. These rabid morons just need to get on with their lives and stop vice signalling.

  • Justin20213 Justin Case (@Justin20213) reported

    @BettyJa08291909 I chose NatWest a loooooong time ago and until they follow Halifax’s lead I’ll stick with them even though they closed our local branch down 😔

  • RCPH0T0 Russ Cowling (@RCPH0T0) reported

    @alfonso_leocad We’ve been preparing a bid for 2 weeks. Maybe go down the back of the sofa, raid your NatWest piggy banks, do some car washing in the community to raise the coin to actually bid and see how the land lies. Can’t stand all this procrastinating.

  • PhilipMichaelC2 Philip Michael Chapman (@PhilipMichaelC2) reported

    @NatWest_Help I received a letter from you today with an application form with with my details I've mentioned before I'm not going to be a NatWest customer so stop sending me any more letters

  • Rafmcd Rafael McDonnell (@Rafmcd) reported

    @MartinSLewis I would like you to tackle the issue of Banks Travel Insurance Policies with packaged accounts.They are not fit for purpose. My Natwest Black one has refused to pay out on a flight cancellation as they say they do not cover "Operator Cancellation" ie. the airline

  • mrtonylee Tony Lee (@mrtonylee) reported

    @richjohnston @Barclays @BarclaysUKHelp I moved from Barclays a decade ago after they started similar **** to this. Now with Natwest and they are way better with US payments.

  • Philbuckle Phil buckle (@Philbuckle) reported

    @iainpdooley @HSBC_UK How about equality in access to counter services? All local branches of natwest and santander near me have now closed! Unnecessary 7 mile drive in to Leeds city centre, f**k all parking just to withdraw more than £250 in one go, or heaven forbid, pay cash in! #bankingprogress

  • DufferRoy DufferRoy (@DufferRoy) reported

    @kazbahellis @BettyJa08291909 I’ve been with NatWest 60+ years, never an issue with them. I run three accounts. I rarely visit now that most of my banking can be done online, and anyway my overdraft deserves a secure home!

  • NanaTorTor Victoria Workman (@NanaTorTor) reported from Worthing, England

    @NatWest_Help Please will someone from NatWest help with a major issue? Not getting anywhere and my anxious family members are becoming Ill with worry!!

  • PhilipMichaelC2 Philip Michael Chapman (@PhilipMichaelC2) reported

    @LloydsBank just to let you know that I'm going to stay with Lloyd's Bank and not becoming a NatWest customer Philip Chapman

  • miguelpergamon1 michael parchment (@miguelpergamon1) reported

    I have also had problems with PayPal. Information in my Lloyds account and NatWest had also changed. So, I deleted the link in PayPal to my Lloyds account at around 2pm. After 6pm I got messages from PayPal ("use the app") and Facebook ("we see you have had problems logging-in").

  • TiagoJRToledo Tiago Toledo 🇺🇦 (@TiagoJRToledo) reported

    @TempestWT I know that pain all too well. Try NatWest, those were the guys that hooked me up with only my uni acceptance letter. If you have a work contract, they should be able to help you faster than other banks.

    @BettyJa08291909 Never had any issues, wouldn't go to rbs or natwest
