NatWest Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Naveen | AI • Dharma • Truth (@anaveentalks) reported@AndrewAndru2012 @VerdeSelvans the phone is still usable while it’s indexing, but expect it to feel a bit slower, warmer, and with higher battery drain for the first few days (sometimes up to a week depending on how much data you have especially photos and messages). It runs in the background.On UK banking apps: so far most people are reporting that Monzo, Barclays, Starling, NatWest, Santander etc. are working fine on iOS 27 beta.Rollback is possible but annoying you’ll need to restore via a computer in recovery mode, and you’ll lose data unless you have a backup from before you installed the beta. Beta backups don’t always restore cleanly to older versions.

Stephen Mills (@Stephen_Mills85) reported@afneil And also, she said “people working in a bank.” Not “bankers.” Somebody working at Natwest, opening accounts and helping pensioners with their PIN number enquiries should not be necking a couple of wines on their lunch break.

dyan gough (@dylan12135) reported@Aodh_MagUidhir @NewnhamTony under FCA regulations NatWest will need to move hq to inside the uk You are the problem in this country - can’t have a sensible conversation with someone who has a differing view so u resort to abuse. Sad that you’re so full of hatred for the uk to make ur stereotype comments

Alicia (@Aliciasdnud) reported@NatWest_Help hi I placed a switch to HSBC from NatWest and I want to cancel. HSBC have been no help. Can you please reject the switch request please I don’t want to switch to them anymore
-
Joe Smith (@IzriteAD) reported@peterjukes This was literally 3 years ago, the article states the short position was held since the spring of 2023 before the announcement that coutts closed his account. If Farage got the letter in June 2023 but they were already shorting NatWest, then this will be a non-issue.
-
VirtualAstro (@VirtualAstro) reportedI used to recommend NatWest but unfortunately, they have provided a really really poor service recently I used to recommend them a lot, after beying a loyal customer. Maybe not so much now. Time to join another bank possibly... @NatWestBusiness @NatWestGroup @NatWest_Help

Ethan (@ethanms10) reported@NatWest_Help hey folks! My sister banks with you still - she’s just found a car that my dad will buy for her. She needs to transfer £7k from her account to him also a NatWest customer. How can she temporarily up her limits?
-
mollieandarchie (@mollieandarchie) reported@JonBergdahl @alicemodigliani Not surprised after looking around my local NatWest this morning. Staff wearing football shirts! WTF. I let person behind me go first so I at least got the Tottenham shirt cashier. Then I was interrogated why I was withdrawing a few grand in cash.

Annurag P Rekhi (@Dravidict) reported@UnscriptedViews Yehi Ashwathama hai. Bro was there when Yuvi played the Natwest finals. Bro was there when 2 of Yuvi's students chased down DC's target without breaking a sweat
-
Bjorn Again (@NewBjornTab) reportedNatWest - your support for elderly people is so bad! You have very little empathy for relatives & you just don’t listen to those trying to help & resolve a problem. Call after call is the same! It’s like talking to a brick wall!

Don Carlo (@ddavek007) reported@greyfinance How do you explain the sudden message from your customer care that you do not receive funds from NatWest thereby seizing fund's for almost 5 days
-
David (@David7964noBS) reported@the_k_bizzle @NatWest_Help NatWest disappointing service not on the side of the customer. Its a real shameful service. Flight cancelled check-in 9/2/26 Evidence from airline confirmed the refund and from agent but still chasing Natwest for a full refund this should have been so easy ? Going to Ombudsman !
-
Ali@Makely (@MakelyStudio) reported10 years. 50M+ users. £11M+ revenue impact. Citibank. Mercedes. Sky. Virgin Media. NatWest. I spent a decade fixing conversion problems at companies most startups would kill to work with. what I learned: the same broken patterns show up everywhere - onboarding that loses people in the first 60 seconds, pricing pages that confuse instead of convert, signup flows with friction nobody ever fixed. now I build the same systems for funded startups.
-
Boboye (@Boboye__x) reported@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
-
R (@rjb_1998) reported@JoeStephenson96 Tbf bankers and people working at a bank are different, if someone turned up to their customer facing role at NatWest hammered I don't think they'd last very long
-
Robin Nakamoto (@RobinNakamoto) reported@rich_rdctd Sounds like a pretty good reason to tell Natwest to go **** themselves.
-
NatWest (@NatWest_Help) reported@Simsie1488960 1/ 2 Hey Alicia We can re-instate a direct debit if it: Was cancelled in error by the bank, or Is payable to a NatWest product e.g. a mortgage The direct debit also must have been cancelled in the last 60 days. If the above applies to you, please visit us in branch or get in
-
Apurv Nagpal (@apurvnagpal) reported@NatWest_Help Hello NatWest For the Nth time - If you see what you think are fraudulent transactions on a customer's credit card - at best put a temp block, which the customer can solve via the app or via SMS / Whatsapp This is crucial, esp when the customer is abroad or busy with their life and doesn't want to spend 20 minutes on a call with customer service Why do you insist on this outdated 'call us' philosophy - without care to what your consumer is doing or wants ? How can you even just block, based on an algorithm, without providing a digital confirmation option (Email / phone / app) ? This is literally the tenth or fifteenth time this has happened in the last few years. Please can you fix this ?
-
JJ (@jujames94) reported@btcjvs Fixed rate ends August 31st this year, NatWest won't let us find and fix in until less than 120 days before rate ends😬
-
Matthew Burrows (@MJBurrows) reportedWhy is #NatWest down 4% today on a £2bn profit beat? When markets ditch a beat, they're pricing what the headline missed. Here's what you need to know.
-
Vaibhav Tiwari (@vaibhavtiwari3) reported@NatWest_Help @NatWest_Help I am in severe financial hardship. Gotogate conceded my £1,298 refund weeks ago, yet NatWest is holding my funds until June 7th. Ombudsman Case PNX-6001799-B1R6 is open. Why won't you provide provisional credit to a loyal customer in need?

mitchelle holland (@mitchlog) reported@Resist_CBDC Natwest bank tell you to download carbon tracker on their app said would help reduce my bills 😵💫😵💫
-
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 🙏
-
Steph Niciu (@StephNiciu) reported@NatWest_Help When I click on DM shows the screen for a second and then not. Yes, I do have access to the Natwest app.
-
C B Campbel (@Tw0pAcPr0) reported@NatWest_Help dear natwest bot, your phone app has an issue. Unfortunately it doesn't know how many hours in a daily reset. Ive want to move funds but it keeps telling ive reached my daily amount. I moved money Sunday its now Tuesday.
-
Newton's Laws (@Newtons_Laws) reported@RBS_Help I wish to withdraw my consent for using or storing my biometric data but cannot see where that option can be found on the NatWest Group websites. Can you help with this? @NatWest_Help

Mortgage Solutions (@mortgagesols) reportedNatWest has launched a fund to help housing associations buy affordable homes from housebuilders. 👇 Link to article in the comments

jess (@Jessicakillilea) reportedI’ve contacted via email, dm and many phone calls. Each member of staff passes you onto another and lies. It’s clear why NatWest branches are closing down.
