  • Benteke_SZN Ethan (@Benteke_SZN) reported

    NatWest in **** for money laundering. Can the clear my overdraft as compensation for me being a customer of a criminal organisation?

  • Serpico741 Serpico74 (@Serpico741) reported

    @dormouse881 @BBCNews NatWest bank has pleaded guilty to failing to prevent alleged money laundering of nearly £400m by one customer.

  • CZEdwards CZEdwards (she/her/they/them) (@CZEdwards) reported

    So Fowler Oldfield got shut down for money laundering Jame Stunt’s gold. (And a few other people’s). 365 million pounds through their bank account over 5 years. And now NatWest can no longer handle cash deposits at all. That’s one of the terms of their guilty plea. 4/5

  • ByGeoffW Geoff Whitehouse (@ByGeoffW) reported

    @Fegan @LizLum If they could leave it alone or just give it the 'a Natwest service' that would be smart. So probs getting full rebrand in a year

  • TugwoodJames James (@TugwoodJames) reported

    @BBCNews Shut the front door,a bank who deals with criminals. Who would of thought? The only problem for NatWest they got caught. 😜😜😜😜

  • BeesterGee GeeBeester 🇬🇧 🚀🐝🌸 (@BeesterGee) reported

    @NatWest_Help The writing is on the wall, #NatWest really finds offering any level of service in the South Downs area just too much of an ask. Time was when we had six branches, now all closed & we get a van scheduled for 1hr a week that has barely run in the last 18mths & still isn't

  • BeckettUnite Howard Beckett (@BeckettUnite) reported

    The Natwest (then RBS) received £45bl of taxpayers money in the 2008 bank bailout. Today they pleaded guilty to allowing the laundering of £400ml by one single customer. No person will be prosecuted, no one will bat an eye lid. It’s a rigged system we need to bust.

  • MrsVRE MrsV RE 🌈 (@MrsVRE) reported

    @AhmedKhattabUK I don't think Jules is attacking the teachers, it is a criticism of the institution rather than the people. If I criticise NatWest bank, I'm not criticising the people working for them. Agree, it is important to hold these organisations to account.

  • myrules92jay Jay (@myrules92jay) reported

    NatWest “we deeply regret” that you laundered £250m through your bank from one customer. Pay a fine and move on. These bell ends need to be held more accountable! Prison time.

  • d171692b Andrew Thompson (@d171692b) reported

    @CEOemail I’m determined to keep annoying NatWest for the rest of my life. I appreciate that it probably won’t get me anywhere but I hope that others will see what they did to me and it might stop it from happening to someone else. You could just block my tweets

  • David__Osland David__Osland (@David__Osland) reported

    Just nipping out to the local NatWest with a couple of hundred millions pounds of profit from my ******* cartel. I hope I'm still in time for a service wash.

  • JeffreyVictor64 Jeff Paine (@JeffreyVictor64) reported

    @BBCNews I was until recently a NatWest employee working in a non frontline role, never dealing with customers or cash. Even for my role the anti money laundering training was exhaustive, completed twice a year, on report if you failed it. Laughable!

  • wine_oasis Truffles (@wine_oasis) reported

    NatWest bank has pleaded guilty to failing to prevent alleged money laundering of nearly £400m by one customer NatWest said "we deeply regret" failing to "adequately monitor and therefore prevent money laundering by one of our customers between 2012 and 2016".

  • BTG_Advisory BTG Advisory (@BTG_Advisory) reported

    NatWest allowed a gold dealer to launder £365m through the bank over four years, a London court heard yesterday. The bank has admitted to three charges brought by the Financial Conduct Authority for failing to properly monitor a customer between 2012 and 2016.

  • dormouse881 dormouse88 (@dormouse881) reported

    @Serpico741 @BBCNews Don't think you read this did you. NatWest problem was not reporting suspicious transactions. Bit like you thinking your neighbour might be growing ******** & not reporting it. How would you feel if you were one prosecuted?

  • smolxedits aleks⁷ 🎃🦇 (@smolxedits) reported

    natwest wtf I WAS ROOTING FOR YOUUU

  • BabyShoreditch shoreditchbaby (@BabyShoreditch) reported

    omg NatWest just plead guilty to allowing fraud omg 😭 wtf is going on wit the UK

  • McGeorgeOfTheJ1 McGeorgeOfTheJungle (@McGeorgeOfTheJ1) reported

    @BeckettUnite The main problem not just for Natwest but for all banks is keeping up with the various methods used by groups to launder money, it does make it difficult sometimes to spot. And in some cases people are forced to be mules with threats of violence/death. Additionally 1/x

  • hi_its_MrB Hi_Its_MrB (@hi_its_MrB) reported

    Natwest done for fraud if I was a natwest customer I'd be switching banks right about now.

  • captain_leon Leon Carter (@captain_leon) reported

    @thatdlh Yes agree, but in absence of them, no-one in a branch will instinctively question odd customer behaviour. Natwest clearly have a huge hole in their policies and processes

  • EmmaBeeBlog Emma 💙 (@EmmaBeeBlog) reported

    @NatWest_Help I went into NatWest last Thursday to close a savings account/move money elsewhere - they said it would take 3-5 working days. The account is still open and money hasn’t been moved. Is this likely to be a delay or do I need to go back in store?

  • Bounce_BackLoan Mr Bounce Back (@Bounce_BackLoan) reported

    Be aware of how Rishi's mind works, re the big fine for Natwest, as its mainly tax payer owned he may issue everyone with a bill to pay the fine....

  • queen__cammie laura (@queen__cammie) reported

    Have NatWest really been caught money laundering 💀💀💀 wtf

  • MK_7747 MK (@MK_7747) reported

    @BBCNews NatWest bank has pleaded guilty to failing to prevent alleged money laundering of nearly £400m by one customer should be the headline not the sub heading

  • Melissa7Aimee ‘IN MY ZONE’ OUT NOW 💃🏾 (@Melissa7Aimee) reported

    NatWest are hands down the worst bank I’ve banked with. Would not recommend kmt.

  • graeme_56 graeme wright DipWSET💙 (@graeme_56) reported

    @MarkVent In over 43 years of being a grown up with a bank account I've only been overdrawn once, for the princely sum of £5.40 for two days due to a slow clearing cheque (remember them?) back in 1983. So in two years time I will celebrate forty years of NOT banking with Natwest

  • NeedsBalance The world needs balance (@NeedsBalance) reported

    @BBCNews @NatWestGroup has issues adhering to its own policies, so I am not surprised by the news. I wouldn't surprise me if there were more issue with NatWest that are yet to come out

  • loshan1212 Loshan (@loshan1212) reported

    @LinaSeiche This was already kinda known from earlier this year... Natwest started cracking down on Bitcoin/crypto.vMy dad's business bank is with Natwest, and they told us his account would be closed if businesses accept crypto, even if we didn't sell to fiat. Apparently the crackdown on

    Natwest are leaches. Now they're done for money laundering. Not surprised. Shut the banks down.
