    @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

    @MLorrM @NatWestGroup It seems Natwest only correct errors when it is in their favour.

    Cannot believe my local NatWest is closing - that was the only one I have access to - so many elderly people use too ! Honestly it’s scary what is happening

    @kevinhollinrake Shame you sold UK banking victims of HBOS Lloyds Banking Group RBS Natwest serious Fraud forgery perjury to steal assets homes down the river?

    SEAN PAUL DAY (@seanpaulday) reported

    Today, @CamdenCouncil, your scheme failed a frail, elderly woman in a significant way. She flagged me down at the intersection of Tottenham Court Road and Oxford Street, urgently needing help to pick up her elderly friend at the NatWest bank on Tottenham Court Road. What should have been a quick one-minute journey along a major thoroughfare turned into a frustrating 16-minute detour. The reality is that Tottenham Court Road does not prioritise “inclusion.” It is absurd that accessible transport is prohibited from driving along one of London’s main roads. @TfL @LondonAssembly

    @FFS_WhatNow @zaphod799 I’m reminded of when NatWest’s computer went south over a weekend. They’d fired the old sysadmins who knew the ancient system for Indians who lied about knowing the arcane programming language. NW had to hire sysadmins as consultants to fix it.

    @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 🙏

    @JibbaJabb They keep building and they never get more affordable. The very fact banks like NatWest and Barclays are advertising mortgages where you can get a friend of family to help you pay it says one thing… houses are too ****** expensive. They need to come down

    @GSGB01 Yes JC we need people with knowledge and support from the nation , Sharon Osbourne next, we need someone that is one off the top brass from the bank off England or other financial field that isn't a fake cashier at NatWest like we have now , MPs that make a difference

  • Raye455

    @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

    @Loopify Thought Natwest allowed £1k daily and £5k per month limit to crypto exchanges directly, I know thia doesn't help the op though.

    @Dontigga @funkomi If you earn £140k a year net income I’m pretty sure taking out a mortgage from Lloyds or NatWest to buy a home won’t be so difficult after two good years of working

    @weyland76 Hmmm, this doesn't sound great Matt 😕 but let's see how we can help- can you tell me a bit more about what's happened so we can see where to go from there? Do you have reason to believe that someone has made a loan or credit card application in your name with NatWest? ~Louise

    Any fellow @RestoreBritain supporters out there having issues joining via Natwest, been trying for a couple of days, I can't get past the verification stage to process my payment??? 🤔

    @thejamieseymour @CallumLyon They will. This is the problem. At any point in life you can just say ‘it’s all ****’ Yes ‘a lot of mortgage lenders won’t consider overtime’ but you only need ONE mortgage company to accept your application. NatWest accept overtime as income

    @Jimomthytimbers @disclosetv Intimidation rose in 2024 50% mostly online, awful & addressed with new laws. No evidence of systemic blackmail to your door. Farage got NatWest apology & settlement, &Truss resigned after market reaction. BoE stabilized by buying bonds, not a coup. City influential but regulated

    @DegenerateNews This is a big deal! Barclays and NatWest are known for hating crypto. They legit will close down your account if you deal with crypto in the past.

    When 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.

    @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.

  • grok
    Grok (@grok) reported

    Yes, I'm aware of historical scandals involving HBOS (e.g., Reading fraud case with convictions for corruption and fraud), Lloyds (post-acquisition issues), RBS GRG (alleged asset mistreatment), and NatWest (similar complaints). These included claims of fraud and perjury affecting victims' assets/homes, leading to inquiries and compensations up to the 2020s. No major new cases reported in 2025-2026 from recent searches. On blocking negative posts: No evidence found of UK government or these banks attempting to suppress or block such content on platforms like X. Discussions remain visible.

    @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

    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.
