  • amdawson384 Ann Dawson (@amdawson384) reported

    @NatWest_Help I have now transfered almost all of my money from my account. I am so disappointed with the fact that Natwest have done nothing to improve the terrible external state of the East Ham branch. I have been your customer for nearly 30 years but it is a worry that basics are ignored.

  • _ratcan ratcan (@_ratcan) reported

    @WelshJesstopher what ******** is wrong with natwest, i remember seeing on joe lycett’s got your back they had one of the worst rates for people getting scammed too

  • Cryptdropper88 CryptoDropper (@Cryptdropper88) reported

    Still having the odd withdrawal issue to my Natwest account. Company contacted me today to say 1 didn't work. Natwest unable to admit they have widespread problems for customers. Not had my council tax rebate either yet, many around me have. @NatWest_Help did you eat that too?

  • mmPandiculation Cory Donoghue (@mmPandiculation) reported

    @EddDaze11 @Morcia happened to me with natwest. safe to say they also lost a customer & the woman even said ‘i agree its wrong, keep investing’ the banks are shitting themselves.

  • Nerhv1 Nerhv (@Nerhv1) reported

    @NatWest_Help 9 times I have attempted to phone NatWest customer service. 7 times I have been redirected to the wrong team, and twice I have had the phone put down on me. How can I contact the DigiDocs team without dealing with representatives that have less than 5 braincells?!

    Worst UK bank for dealing with scams issues crypto scam alert . NatWest issued a crypto scam warning to mobile banking users after reportedly receiving a record number of complaints in Q1.

  • Trueface121 Truth Matters (@Trueface121) reported

    @NatWest_Help Would close my account with NatWest , duplicate payments , no support, You ask refund for your money once day they tell yiu , will get refund tomow and next day they say it will be auto fixed. Theifs . Managers like Jamie don't even want to spk about this

  • Awordablow John527 (@Awordablow) reported

    @NatWest_Help Why the hell is it so complicated reporting a payment that was not authorised?? I simply wanted to block any further payment to a scam operator. NatWest’s reporting system sends users to a dozen webpages - I’ve had to cancel my credit card bcs your system is such a farce.

  • papillon_a2z Toria (@papillon_a2z) reported

    @NatWest_Help Thank you. Getting hold of anyone at Optima is a nightmare. Being existing current and savings account holders with NatWest, we really didn’t foresee there being this much trouble. Not the reliable, reputable service we’re used to, which is a shame.

  • davidofsussex David (@davidofsussex) reported

    Someone called Kenton Cool doesn’t spend 25 years working behind the counter at NatWest.

  • JohnApocalypse John Apocalypse (㇏(•̀ᵥᵥ•́)ノ) (@JohnApocalypse) reported

    So, for the second year in a row, my card is broken and I can't scan anything. Someone at Natwest needs to fix this ****

  • S_h_e_e_n_a_ Sheena 🧙‍♀️🧹🌘⭐️ (@S_h_e_e_n_a_) reported

    Years ago I worked in customer services, in one of those phone farms that take calls for lots of companies - Tesco Finance, NatWest etc. I learned that to avoid listening to angry rants all day, I had to convince the customer to tell me what they wanted to achieve with the phone

  • Simon16a Simon Needham (@Simon16a) reported

    @WTW_uk do you know why your website chat function hasn’t been working this afternoon? NatWest group pension fund

  • AnnieBannister Annie Bannister (@AnnieBannister) reported

    @PeterSimmo Brilliant. That's worth knowing. HSBC have been appalling for years & the bank charges thing - which was always a problem - has suddenly become a massive issue. I'll look at NatWest. Thanks.

  • evelyndalton7 Evelyn Dalton (@evelyndalton7) reported

    @Natwest I've been trying to pay a bill for @virginmedia but it keeps saying SCA Soft Decline?? Help please x

    @PlayOJO how long does you’re support team take to@reply to an email ? Having issues with NatWest cards but have had no help

  • StevenHDyson Steven Dyson (@StevenHDyson) reported

    Yesterday I gave my card details to a fake NHS COVID website following a fake COVID alert. They then had the audacity to ring me pretending to be NatWest's fraud team to transfer my accounts to new ones. Be careful. Thanks to the real @NatWest_Help who were excellent

  • David46544024 david (@David46544024) reported

    @sbk hello can't withdraw with my natwest debit card please help me.

  • Trueface121 Truth Matters (@Trueface121) reported

    @NatWest_Help Will close my account and would not recommend NatWest , worst customer service ever . Called 5 times in 5 days , promised refund for payment then call hanged up since each advisor tells a different story . Managers hiding behind dont want to talk. I rather move to HSBC or Barclay

  • XXIV_Anthan Billy (@XXIV_Anthan) reported

    @NatWest_Help don’t ever bank with NatWest. Terrible bank, has stole £60 from me due to the duplicate payments and now £260 and refusing to answer. #natwest #bank #Banking

  • AaronLewisPrice Aaron Price (@AaronLewisPrice) reported from Upper Poppleton, England

    @TSB is getting worse and worse with taking out payments, so slow... Compared to my #natwest account. TSB takes too long taking things out of the bank. Literally get hit with everything coming out the same time. You guys need to speed up payments coming out 😡

    @NatWest_Help never has a company Made me feel as worthless as natwest have. Well done you won, I'm broken. I have nothing left in me. My daughter is clearly not going to get her nursery money back so I cannot now do my job and this is down to your error. But you don't give a fck
