-
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.
-
Jijingi u Ter (@jijingiUter) reported@iSlimfit God bless them indeed Deloitte leads with 26 weeks full pay from day one (flexible too can spread it out), same for NatWest, Aviva, and BT. Proper family support like this is a game-changer. Makes you wonder when more sectors (and countries) will catch up.
-
John Lundstram (@Lundstrams_peg) reported@JonnyLavn @ScotlandSky Have a wee read of the crown prosecution service website. Also stops you looking like a right ******* idiot on here Copernicus. Alternatively speak with natwest a company which was famously criminally prosecuted recently. Want it in words of one syllable or less next?

Tom Hingley (@tomhingleymusic) reporteddelays on the M1 today as assistance vehicles with ‘abnormal load’ vehicles steer Nigel Farage’s wallet down from a private airport to London . There will be a 30 minute silence at noon to remember how the nasty NatWest stopped poor Nigel’s bank account lead by Nick Robinson
-
Duke of Lambeth (@DukeTinoM) reported@TheLightish @LloydsBank @WhiteSaiber It's always Llloyds my wife banks with Natwest and she never has this problem
-
mohbi (@mohbii) reported@WSJ NatWest expecting income at the top end of guidance after 9.5% growth is a strong signal that UK banking is in a surprisingly healthy position. higher interest rates have been painful for borrowers but banks are thriving on the margin between what they pay depositors and what they charge on loans. the structural hedge giving them protection means they keep earning even when rates eventually come down. UK banks havent looked this profitable in years

Lord D (@rmeatbags) reportedIt literally felt so ******* good to have a million pounds I checked my notifications and saw the NatWest transfer and it was euphoric. I genuinely thought it was real I’ve never had such a vivid dream. There was no weird **** happening
-
Gen Kofi🇬🇧 🇬🇭 (@Ko_fi_Ob) reported@Lifeofdavie_ Most banks are shutting down due to 90% automation of processes. I have an account with NatWest, the branch in my town has only 2 staff: One teller/customer advisor and Branch Manager/Lead. Machine to deposit coins, cash in, pin resets, cheques scanners, digitised processes!
-
Paul Foster (@OldFozzy) reported@TiceRichard More likely the bankers, Couts & Natwest. Couts CEO in cahoots with the BBC shut down Nigels account a while ago, remember? and had to make a settlement with him because "his views being considered incompatible with the bank's "values or purpose". Revenge or what?
-
Palash (@ABiggerSpalash) reportedwtf i never noticed rajeev shukla was there at the natwest final too 😭
-
Boogie Sham (@hard77593) reportedAnyone had a problem with opening a NatWest business account? I've been waiting a month!! No one answers the phone, I've been waiting for 40minutes this morning, no one answered. Online you get Bots. Fed up!
-
Ali@Makely (@MakelyStudio) reported10 years. 50M+ users. £11M+ revenue impact. Mercedes. Citibank. Sky. Virgin Media. NatWest. I spent a decade fixing conversion problems at some of the world's most recognised brands. 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.
-
Vince (@Xray_Vince) reported@Voyager4IR @NoBullCryptoBen @matttttt187 Chainlink isn't working with central banks yet. They have multiple BIS/Central bank projects, Murex, Natwest Euroclear, Oracle...... That's just ignorant 🤷 ... We all know Central banks are going to be the slowest movers.
-
ʙʀᴀɴᴅᴏɴ ʟᴇᴇ (@Brandn_L33) reported@AutoInfatuation No complaints with our Ltd one through Mettle. Owned by NatWest provides free access to FreeAgent accounting software. Also have the other business setup with Starling Business. The scary stories of Revolut accounts being shut constantly put me off therefor didn’t look at it.
-
Chris (@Sparky2504) reported@AskNationwide This is exactly why I’ve now taken my 3 accounts to NatWest. Nationwide are so behind with the times with their procedures & systems. NatWest can usually fix everything online without having to call them. People don’t have time to call companies & wait on hold for ages anymore!
-
Ian Darbyshire (@Ian_darbyshire) reported@stevemiddi1 @ArturNadol7566 @LloydsBank I have the internal Natwest interest forecasts and they were all going down at that time.
-
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 !
-
Daniella (@JupitorsL) reported@ZackPolanski Never mind me just down voting the community notes that are willfully ignoring the very valid point. It you got arrested for running into NatWest and smashing up their display, charged for it, then got done for robbing the bank later with no jury or due process you'd kick off.
-
NatWest (@NatWest_Help) reported@SpensGraem11427 Okay Graeme - if you're not a customer with NatWest, I'm afraid we'd have to direct you back to Northern Assist for further support with this! Please try getting in touch with them via phone and they'll hopefully be able to help. - Rachel

Maurice Andrews (@maurice_an63983) reported@trussliz Liz Does that include fighting the corrupt fraudulent disease ridden HBOS Lloyds Banking Group RBS Natwest Unicredit Barclays also their legal support UK government?
-
Paul Lonergan (@miesque1) reported@NatWest_Help Hi. I recently had a change of NatWest credit card but BT are still asking for monthly payment via the old card and this request is getting refused. Can you help, pls. Regards, Paul L.
-
jeremyhead (@jeremyhead) reportedI did exactly that with NatWest and got an apology and compensation. (Think it was £100) Clearly an issue with training that needs highlighting.

ADEBAYO101 (@ADEBAYO1018) reported@grok I want you help me build NatWest debit card exactly and the name on it shod be Nicholas baker

Pat Yale (@patyale) reportedBeen out to buy a phone packet to allow me to ring NatWest and ask why no transactions are showing on my account today. The guy effectively said 'it's a general problem'. No apology, no suggestion of when it might be resolved, no reassurance that money was safe. British tax-

Rich (@rich_rdctd) reportedNatwest Bank just dropped a banger. "Tomorrow begins today" they say. If you set up biometric approval in the mobile app or Voice ID for Telephone Banking, you gave them consent to use this data. As per their email: "From 20th May, Natwest will use ‘legitimate interests’ to process biometric data, instead of your consent. Legitimate interests is a term in Data Protection Law, which means we use your data only when necessary and where we have carefully balanced your rights in the public interest." Bear this in mind as you cannot update your details or send more than £750 without using their biometrics service. @freddienew @DecentraSuze

mc california (@mccali99) reported@natwest Have emergency cover with you issue with a boiler Now told you can't get anyone out till Tuesday, that's not acceptable it's an EMERGENCY If this isn't resolved in next 24 hours I will be moving into a hotel at your expense until your emergency service rectifies issue

Joanne Fowler (@jofowler38) reported@birdman2 This post promotes a known scam using AI deepfakes of Emily Maitlis and NatWest CEO Paul Thwaite to advertise the fake Garlenix trading app. The linked site is part of an affiliate fraud scheme that tricks users into depositing money on bogus investment platforms. Please do your own due diligence. Reported as spam and deceptive content.

Tania Falk (@FalkTania) reported@support_desk79 @NatWest_Help is this an official NatWest support account?

Phil page (@sixthtimelucky6) reported@GavinBoby @RedbridgeLive despite several complaints about the use of the former NatWest bank as a mosque in Barkingside High St it appears you have decided to not act upon these!! You are truly letting the community down by not taking us seriously !!!
