-
Bradderz (@bradmorgan90) reported@HJB_News__ She hasn’t done **** all she needs to get back in her NatWest queue telling people to get in the queue that’s all she ******* qualifies for
-
[mine] Art Gallery (@CarshaltonArt) reported@MLorrM How many TOP BODS illicitly benefitted from engineered customer asset sales when RBS, NatWest, Lloyds, HSBC & Barclays were faced with being exposed for fraudulently selling derivatives, fixed rate loans & invoice financing to U.K. & Irish SMEs with HIDDEN CREDIT FACILITIES?
-
~ w (@waqvar) reportedMarsh road is officially dead man wtf dyu mean they closed the natwest now what is even the point anymore
-
Julia Pring (@jpring44) reported@Natwest idea of progress is to close down helpful & people focussed branches particularly with the elderly & divert everyone to a busy automated focussed branch you have to travel to & which is always full of queues. First Catford closed diverting to lewisham now sydenham.
-
Surinder (@SurinderRehal) reported@NatWest_Help i’ve now made three attempts to make a payment around £300. Each time I’m being asked to approve the transaction and when I go into my account there is nothing waiting to be approved. It really is a rubbish system with NatWest as I have no such issues with oth accts
-
Matt Connolly (@MattCon90191238) reported@LairdSummerisle God knows there was some **** allowed in the City from the 70s on (eg Natwest Tower) but Canary wharf was developed from 1988 and we mostly contained the office development out there - what happened in the 00s to allow this plethora of ugly monstrosities to overwhelm the City?
-
paul6767 (@paultraynor67) reported@exRAF_Al @miriam_cates @WilliamClouston finalizing the NatWest/RBS sale at such a significant loss, Labour government isn't just balancing books; they are erasing the evidence. Once the shares are gone, the "investment" is over, and the loss becomes a legacy issue.
-
Dark for the moment (@coachinghiper) reported@natwest approval in app for payment is crap trying to approve when I go back to website after approving in app website re loads so have to try again done this 3 time why can't you just approve via a text message code like other banks.
-
Joshua Smith (@JoshuaSmit3538) reported@financialombuds I'm confused Why are investigators keep missing main point? Asking NatWest for card reader won't help because the app requests face recognition to update details in the app Please tell where will reader card fit in?
-
Raye (@Raye455) reported@GoodwinMJ Matt the closure of bank branches in Denton, Manchester—similar to trends across Tameside and the UK—is primarily driven by a significant, long-term shift toward digital and mobile banking, which has led to a dramatic reduction in branch footfall. Major banks, including NatWest and Lloyds, have closed branches in the area, stating that they must adapt to changing customer habits, as many users now prefer to bank online. It’s down to the public being pushed to use online banking. Not @Keir_Starmer
-
Toby (@Toby1062065) reportedWhen I pushed for answers your team implied I was part of a fraud pattern — despite your own agent’s written warehouse confirmation. PayPal and NatWest can’t help due to direct debit rules. Now pursuing Small Claims Court. All evidence documented.
-
Jurgen Himself 😆 (@Jurgans_Army) reported@NatWest_Help NatWest couldn’t help their customers if they tried !! I left NatWest 19 years ago, seen an offer to bring my business back last month, reopened 3 accounts and guess what, same **** service I left with. Well unlucky… that’s a guaranteed half million you won’t get on your books!
-
Devanik Saha (@devaniksaha) reported@NatWest_Help hello I had a natwest balance transfer card approved in mid Dec 25. but I havent received the card yet physically to manage my direct debit, etc. but I have received a statement. can you help pls?
-
Erin 🍉 (@anon_alice_) reported@Shellfromzero That's **** for you babe. A long time since it happened with Natwest (thank god) but I remember it could be stuck a while xx
-
Paul the Mortgage Cabbie (@mortgagecabbie) reported@CamdenCabbieNW1 Sage are doing free software for sole traders. @TomTaxiDriver has been advertising it. May be worth a look I have access to FreeAgent that comes free with my Mettle (part of natwest) business account.
-
Shelton (@CBTwizard) reported@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.

Serena Joy (@realdoll03) reported@fiffihunnybunny It’s impossible Fiona. How difficult do they want to make it? I’ve been with them since 14 and never had this difficulty. I’ve noted NatWest. Thanks 🙏
-
Izzy🛎 (@bell_necessary) reported@NatWest_Help @LifeOnSkaro Verse 2 The bankers tried, but not very hard, the customer lost their mind not their card. When venting on X, they shared their dismay, but Natwest made fun; now what do you say? 🤨
-
David Barker (@DMTBarker) reported@NatWest_Help well I am stuck here in Mauritius with no flights and travel company only covering 3 extra days of accommodation and then guess what my NatWest travel insurance excludes flight cancellation as a result of war I am alone and no help from Alliance

Josh (@SusyAmogusBallz) reported@merseyrail I’m trying to get a refund for a journey I took over two weeks ago. The NatWest Payout system is having problems but no one has responded to the email I sent a week ago.
-
MemeMcMemeFace (@M3meMcMemeFace) reported@NatWest_Help wife and I have a joint account and Natwest mastercard. Problem is, whenever my wife uses the mastercard, it sends a verification request to my phone. How do we fix this?
-
Nathanial (@ForgetNr) reported@MrFamilyOffice It’s Natwest service with a fancy name on the door

TheTinMen (@TheTinMenBlog) reported@jimthegiant @ZackPolanski The best and easiest way to help your local communities/society is to not hold your money with the big large banks, and move it into ethical banks, and local coops like Nationwide or the Coop. Don’t get me wrong, they are nowhere near as swanky as NatWest or Barkleys, and you’ll have to wait FOR AGES to get through on the phone, but they invest your money more ethically, and not in fossil fuels, or arms. Moving your money to an ethical bank is not as cool as running a marathon, or as virtuous as sharing some online campaign, but it’s way more impactful IMO. All my current accounts, business and savings accounts are with @CooperativeBank, but there are other good ones too. Consider doing it.
