NatWest chair says best way to help poorest is through benefits . Across-the-board tax cut would be blunt, very costly and give wealthy a boost, warns Howard Davies.

@TSB is getting worse and worse with taking out payments, so slow... Compared to my #natwest account. TSB takes too long taking things out of the bank. Literally get hit with everything coming out the same time. You guys need to speed up payments coming out 😡

@GabbyMonaghan Yes I agree. The Ulster Bank app uses the same template as the NatWest app and got better and better over the years. Really hope we get some better competition. BOI’s app isn’t a real app (web page inside an app format). AIB customer care terrible. Hard to find good service

@alistair It doesn't even need to be that complicted. I think natwest includes the fist 6 digits of your post code in your email. A bank used to include a word you gave them too I think but that was a while ago. The problem is you are not a "target"

@NatWest_Help Trying to buy something using my mobile. This new layer of security not really thought through. Have to leave webpage to open Natwest app and 'authorise' but leaving a page cancels a transaction in many cases. Terrible customer experience & incredibly frustrating

@DaisyHawken @Eurostar @lastminute_com Last minute never got back to us and Eurostar couldn’t help as it was last minute who booked it so I ended up having to go through my credit card people (natwest) who refunded me and are investigating it! Hope you get it sorted…

@NatWest_Help Will close my account and would not recommend NatWest , worst customer service ever . Called 5 times in 5 days , promised refund for payment then call hanged up since each advisor tells a different story . Managers hiding behind dont want to talk. I rather move to HSBC or Barclay

@NatWest_Help Thank you. Getting hold of anyone at Optima is a nightmare. Being existing current and savings account holders with NatWest, we really didn’t foresee there being this much trouble. Not the reliable, reputable service we’re used to, which is a shame.

@NatWest_Help Hi Natwest please sort out the manage my mortgage section. It is not working - it zooms every time you put details in and it will not authenticate the payment cards!

@NatWest_Help So NatWest phone line busy this morning. They offer a call back service. Great. Opt for that. Get the call back and straight back in the queue. You couldn’t make it up. Account will now be closed. Better banks out there I feel.

@NatWest_Help @sabz_sabz0078 This relates to a post some time ago. Can you tell me if it's a debit card & if we can still use a pin number (not contactless)? Currently use chip & pin, not contactless. NatWest seems to be making banking impossible for many. We want branches, cheque books, not contactless, etc

Worst service ever at Natwest Wimbledon. Been waiting to be served for 20 mins. Queue not moving. All the manager can say is ‘it’s Friday afternoon, nothing i can do. I totally agree it’s not good enough’. Sort it out Natwest!! @NatWest_Help @NatWestGroup @NatWestComm

@HistoryOfStokey Actually NatWest in SN High Street is on the old Borough of Hackney side of the road. The boundary with SNBC ran down the middle of the High Street. Even SN station was just within the Hackney Borough boundary before it veered left to run along the railway towards Bethune Road
