-
Tyler (@TylerDurden) reported@Loopify @trader1sz I’ve had NatWest since I was 16 years old never had a problem. Linked to my Coinbase transferred probably £30mil through since 2016. However when they did flag one of my txs I upgraded account to black account which is like Amex black card. Have to retain a £100,000 balance at all times etc etc this allowed me to buy £250k of XRP, twice in 2019. So yeah upgrade your account.

Omkar_ (@_balancing_act_) reportedThere should be more of triangular & quadrangular T20 series in the ICC FTP. That will give associates more opportunities against top teams. Bring back the Commonwealth Bank series down under, Sharjah Cup, Natwest Series. Let there be a Euro, Africa, Afro-Asia, Eur-Asia Cup #T20WorldCup2026 #T20WorldCup

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.

AB🇮🇳🥇ST (@AB100JaiHind) reportedWho cares what he says... His Sorry Team 🏴 @nassercricket can barely win on 🇮🇳 Soil! Last series win dating back to 2012..He can support whosoever he wins! Natwest Final of 2002 would be well remembered by him and his old comedy club of commentators at Sky.. We in 🇮🇳 DONT CARE
-
ivan (@kondratiuk59) reported@Wayne_adams83 There was talk of the banks working together in ONE building. Ie Barclays on Mondays, NatWest on Wednesdays and so on. Haven’t heard anything about it since though !
-
Dan Lee (@MCFCDANLEE) reported@MartinSLewis I have Natwest black rewards account. I get travel insurance , phone insurance, breakdown cover ,free airport lounge access and £10 back each month. Comes in handy as I fly at least twice a month. It costs me £32 per month.
-
Matty 🇺🇦 (@mattywop89) reported@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
-
Richard Oliver (@rioliver) reported@NatWest_Help please can someone contact me as I have been unable to book a holiday with Jet2 due to “PSD2 SCA issue” the NatWest adviser suggests I have to speak to Jet 2 to resolve and I find it hard to believe that a major bank and a major holiday company cannot interoperate
-
Izzy🛎 (@bell_necessary) reported@NatWest_Help @LifeOnSkaro Verse 2 The bankers tried, but not very hard, the customer lost their mind not their card. When venting on X, they shared their dismay, but Natwest made fun; now what do you say? 🤨
-
Craig Duncan (@Fludded) reported@RupertLowe10 @ShapoMelon @Asmongold I gave up on him when he abandoned all those people he promised to help who had been Debanked. He got his NatWest payoff. Shut down the website. And never mentioned it again.
-
Grok (@grok) reported@WhatsGoinO25301 @Jvnior Tommy Robinson has claimed that major UK banks like NatWest, Lloyds, and HSBC closed his accounts due to his views, making it hard to bank there. However, he has used online banking alternatives. Some sources dispute the full extent of these claims amid his tax and bankruptcy issues.
-
Dr HOX ENDUCTION HOUR 🌻🎩🧐 (@hoxtonwanka) reported@K_Niemietz there's a lot of space between the skyscrapers so they get to speak for themselves. the problem in the city at the moment is that they've all been clustered together. it used to look way more impressive when you just had the Gherkin, Natwest buildiing and LSE building
-
Graham Dean (@GrahamDean44894) reported@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
-
Michael Hewson 🇬🇧 (@mhewson_MCH) reportedBit of a strange reaction to NatWest purchase of Evelyn Partners - make it make sense - 10% down?
-
Sally Bell (@dipsiesmum) reported@NatWestBusiness How is anyone supposed to sell a business when the new owner has been “denied” access to the business accounts due to NatWest’s inability to sort out a bank mandate. Access was requested a fortnight ago.
-
Trousers (@trousersoflife) reported@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
-
Joshua Smith (@JoshuaSmit3538) reported@TNLUK I still can't add my card. I have a new card I believe your system blocked it I don't think NatWest will block it for no reason
-
Grok (@grok) reported@WhatsGoinO25301 @Jvnior Nigel Farage settled with NatWest in 2025 after his Coutts account closure, which was deemed mainly commercial (wealth thresholds) but involved discussion of his views; he got an apology. Tommy Robinson's claims of bank closures are tied to his 2021 bankruptcy, £2m debts, and HMRC issues, providing banks with clear financial risk reasons beyond just views, limiting similar legal paths.
-
Michael Wilcox (@mj_wilcox) reported@JustEatUK @CUSTOMERRE58657 I have raised a chargeback with NatWest. Awful I’ve had to go to these lengths.
-
Nash (@nashahmed3) reported@Loopify it’s not just a NatWest issue it’s a banks as a whole issue, hope they resolve this swiftly bro
-
FunkyApe🍌 (@funkyape297) reported@Loopify After repeated issues trying to buy on Coinbase, with NatWest limiting transactions for no clear reason, I closed the account and moved to Nationwide. Let’s see how they handle it.
-
Sophia Clara (@purpleGenghis) reported@Loopify Natwest is terrible. They try telling you what to do with your money.. I closed account last year because of this S***t
-
Tom (@TMur222) reported@MLorrM @NatWestGroup It seems Natwest only correct errors when it is in their favour.
-
Snarky Guy (@Barbara27541025) reported@Telegraph I understand @NatWestGroup is closely monitoring the Telegraph/ Daily Mail unhinged ,tabloid like barrel of sewage level of journalism. lately Its will be interesting to see if this NatWest shareholders,risk their reputation by funding this garbage
-
brucie 🦇🔊 (@famousbruce) reported@Loopify NatWest stopped me from buying crypto since about 3 years ago. It’s not a new problem, but I agree it is ridiculous that we are stopped from spending our own money.
-
Richard Oliver (@rioliver) reported@jet2tweets are you aware of PSD2 SCA booking issues with NatWest credit cards. @NatWest_Help are saying you cannot transact with each other and my credit card gets declined. Very poor joint experience
-
DandyDanFan (@DanFanshawe) reported@OmniSteve @LloydsBank @NatWest_Help They waited for the official final switch day - when NatWest closed my account - to then cancel. If there was an issue with my application it should have been dealt with much sooner.
-
Nick Greenacre (@nicknet100) reported@SayNo2SizewellC What do you believe you know that the planning authorities, Natwest and Bpifrance Assurance Export (the insurers/underwriters) do not? And secondly, do you not see the irony of opposing a clean energy project, the success of which help prevent sea level rise?
-
Hits London (@HitsLondon) reported@Loopify Thought Natwest allowed £1k daily and £5k per month limit to crypto exchanges directly, I know thia doesn't help the op though.
