  • AndrewNunn51 Andrew 🇬🇧£ (@AndrewNunn51) reported

    @NatWest_Help The British state currently owns around 54.7% of @NatWest Group plc after spending 45 billion pounds ($61.87 billion) bailing out the lender in 2008 Yet they don’t let YOU buy Crypto! WTF. @RishiSunak

  • ste_zace Ste Zace (@ste_zace) reported

    Natwest just text to warn me about scams, i also forwarded to message the Nigerian prince, who needs my bank account details to help secure his money in exchange for £15,000, so he doesn't get scammed too

  • dazk55 Daz Keelor (@dazk55) reported

    @NatWest_Help not good enough... 28 years banking with NatWest down the toilet..

  • Fletch832 Fletch (🎩,🎩) (@Fletch832) reported

    @ChrisCleary_52 @Williamsburg79 Chris I had exactly the same problem. And you know what I had to do? Change banks. I’m now with @monzo who are brilliant with this stuff. And allow me to transfer my money there & on exchanges. I recommend them. Left NatWest for gd after being a lifelong customer & biz bank too.

  • AyrtonHockaday Ayrton Hockaday (@AyrtonHockaday) reported

    So NatWest are now opening at 10am rather than 9.30am on Wednesdays to "enhance their service"... You need to be open more to enhance a bloody service, not reduce it down! Closed all but 1 branch in Guernsey over the last few years so not really enhancing anything @NatWest_Help

  • howett Matthew Howett (@howett) reported

    @NatWest_Help hey natwest. the alarm on your cash machine in the wall of tesco metro on kingsland road has been going off every night for more than a week. it’s been reported to you but still no fix. what gives?

  • nootnootmofos23 Mark Sykes (@nootnootmofos23) reported

    @Crypti14 @NatWest_Help Apparently the coop based on what I have seen on a website that indicates what banks allow what… how up to date it is I don’t know. I am going to open an account and see. This from Natwest for me proves they are running scared of Defi and it also proves why it is important

  • Elizjhaynes Elizabeth Haynes (@Elizjhaynes) reported

    .@natwest Any ideas how I can ask a question? Your digital assistant Cora has gone AWOL and there is no sign of a phone number to call on the website...

  • eddiecomedy eddieblackcomedy (@eddiecomedy) reported

    Exclusive: Natwest reveal their pronouns in their website T&Cs: "This website is owned and maintained by National Westminster Bank Plc (“us”, “we” or “NatWest”)".

  • IanOnFilm 🇬🇧🏳️‍🌈📽💿Ian Smith (@IanOnFilm) reported

    It’s a week since an ATM grabbed my bank card, rebooted after asking for the PIN and gave nothing back. STILL waiting for the replacement card that NatWest promised “in 5-7 days”. No Black Friday for me! Terrible timing.

  • chimaevsmash S (@chimaevsmash) reported

    @ellatrow_ Looks like he works with natwest tell the lad to call them (numbers on back of the debit card) and ask to be put through to the scams team they’ll block the guys account and get his money back

  • PaulPaulf1014 bluenose1014 (@PaulPaulf1014) reported

    How do banks get away with providing such poor customer service. Natwest have blocked my account because I was transferring from my account to another bank in my name and I was complaining about answering 20mins of security questions for the 3rd night running. Unbelievable

  • ShanRebec94 Shannon (@ShanRebec94) reported from Sale, England

    @Justiinahh @AskNationwide I’m also having this exact same issue. My partner sent money from nationwide to my NatWest and it hasn’t arrived. Not sure if it’s nationwide or NatWest with the issue 😫

  • AndrewBowden Andrew Bowden (@AndrewBowden) reported

    @krn Five, ten minute walk? When our local NatWest closed down, customers needed to do a 12 minute drive. Or alternatively spend half an hour on the bus.

  • VictorOlliver Victor Santo Olliver (@VictorOlliver) reported from Sompting, England

    @essiefox I left for Homeserve after NatWest, went to Churchill, now better offer from British Gas home insurance. Homeserve years back were slow.

  • gem3105 Gemma Lowry (@gem3105) reported

    @itvMLshow I had a paid account with NatWest. I didn’t request it. I started getting charged in 2005 & only realised in about 2015! Problem was I didn’t check my account back then. I know - I’m a fool! Made a claim in 2015 and they said they would only refund payments for 1 year

  • Phoenixfbrescue ♡ Phoenix FB Rescue UK ♡ (@Phoenixfbrescue) reported

    **URGENT - PAYMENTS:** Please note that we are experiencing problems with our main bank account and I am awaiting further contact from the Fraud Team. Until further notice please use the following details for any payments: Natwest Bank (Business account)

  • shrimpsy291 @shrimpsy (@shrimpsy291) reported

    My mum(86) got a text saying her o2 payments had not been received so she reentered her bank details, fortunately it worried her if right , but luckily NatWest have an old biddie help line (her words ) and sorted it all for her, but really frightened her 😢#ThisMorning

  • safemoonsimon Safemoon Simon (@safemoonsimon) reported

    @SafeMoonSpurs hi Roy. For some reason Apple Pay with NatWest isn’t working. I have a Monzo account. Will try that tomorrow when I have had some sleep. Thanks for your offer of help.

  • futureretro777 Paul (@futureretro777) reported

    @barclays why can't I pay my bills with my VISA debit card? Twice in the last 12 hours transactions have failed, forcing me to use a credit card instead 🤨 Card activated, some payments go through, some don't. Don't have this issue with Natwest 😔

  • hayleylbar Hayley Bartlett (@hayleylbar) reported

    @NatWest_Help At no point in the chat was i informed that your messaging service is not an instant messaging chat and i was never informed it was! I’ve wasted the entire evening trying to sort an issue and got nowhere. May as well telephone Natwest in the morning!

  • craignicol craignicol 😷 💉💉 (@craignicol) reported

    @garyfleming possibly. I thought it was all payment systems, but it looks like HBoS, RBS/NatWest and Barclays' recent outages were all login issues issues.

  • VRoonaldo United best in UK (@VRoonaldo) reported

    @OliverKay @MrTomMcDermott When UK sports media bring up figures of how much money the Glazers have spent, they have failed to understand the main problem. Banker's who don't care about winning, might as well call our Natwest United Bank Ltd. No knowledge of football. Riots at every game #GlazersOut

  • Matthewpacker78 Matt Packer (@Matthewpacker78) reported

    @ThreeUKSupport I don’t have another phone to hand, but this iPhone is only 5 weeks old as is the Sim. Problem I will have is when I’m home it won’t be an issue, only in Uxbridge. I was in Natwest this morning and I had not one bar at all.

  • Bill20538001 Bill (@Bill20538001) reported

    @Bel_B30 @Hazels_Vibes Master Card are adopting a carbon policy. i.e...they will monitor what you spend, and what you spend it on. Put in place a carbon limit. If you go over it, they will block your card. NatWest and BoS are ditching visa on the 21st of December this year. Another type of passport

  • ThreeUKSupport ThreeUKSupport (@ThreeUKSupport) reported

    @Matthewpacker78 Do you happen to have the postcode for where you were in Natwest? We'd like to check if there's issues in that area, or not. Could help us understand if you were affected by a network issue, or if something else is going on here -Chris

  • Nodleman1 Nodleman (@Nodleman1) reported

    @NatWest_Help Hi. Is there an issue with NatWest Credit Card at the moment? Can't see my card in the mobile app

  • thejoeywessex Joanna Watchman (@thejoeywessex) reported from Sutton Benger, England

    Evening @NatWest_Help I can’t find a direct debit form for my dad to enable auto payment of his NatWest @Mastercard - can you please advise / help? Thanks.

  • DLBrade Daniel Brade (@DLBrade) reported

    @HSBC_UK finding it impossible to pay my credit card as I bank with NatWest, poor customer service

  • RacingSteward The (Sim) Racing Bar Steward (@RacingSteward) reported

    @NatWest_Help if I set up a transfer in the future between my two natwest accounts using the mobile app, what time of day does the transfer occur? I need to set up a transfer on my payday when I have no internet access, but my pay does not arrive in my account until around 4am.
