NatWest Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • MalcolmBacchus Malcolm Bacchus (@MalcolmBacchus) reported

    @cgledhill It's already like that. In order to get access to our funds @natwest has asked us for ID for our founder trustees all of whom are now dead. They might not recognise the name of Lord Redcliffe-Maud but surely they must have realised that asking for ID for Harold MacMillan was OTT.

  • chrisdugdale Chris Dugdale (@chrisdugdale) reported

    Great service today from @WellsFargo. So different from the appalling service I have had lately from @NatWest_Help @NatWestBusiness. Natwest has a lot to learn.

  • Deancandoit its up to me (@Deancandoit) reported

    Advert, #NatWest have an account aimed at children called Rooster account costing £1.99 a month. I thought bank accounts where free in this country. Maybe this is the beginning of charging for bank accounts. Once you charge it always goes up, never down. @NatWestGroup

  • CryptoGiants_ ⚡ Mr. Crypto Giants🐋 (@CryptoGiants_) reported

    🚨 NatWest sets £1,000 daily limit for customer #Crypto activities #Bitcoin

  • Mr_Brightsidea MrBrightside (@Mr_Brightsidea) reported

    @unusual_whales Banks are scared about the transfer of assets and the ‘bleeding’ of money to decentralised entities such as #Bitcoin. It has absolutely nothing to do with saving a customer from themselves. Maybe I will limit my amount being put into Natwest to zero!

  • emiliariches emilia (@emiliariches) reported

    had the worst experience at nationwide today the woman was so rude and unhelpful, so my friend said i could transfer the money to her and take it out of her bank… so we went to natwest and was honestly the kindest, helpful staff members ever even though i wasn’t their customer

  • bitcoms Bitcoms (@bitcoms) reported

    Per the FT article, NatWest announced restrictions to “help protect consumers losing life changing sums of money”. Presumably because a life-changing sum of money is SO much safer in a bank than, say, in Bitcoin cold storage. 🤨

    FTSE 100 slumped to lowest levels this year Prudential down by more than 10% despite the company feeling optimistic about China reopening its borders. Barclays down by 7%, Standard Chartered down by more than 6%. NatWest Group down by nearly 5% HSBC had slipped by around 4%.

  • 77vintageKb Kelly Cartlidge (@77vintageKb) reported

    @NatWest_Help @NatWestGroup @financialombuds shocking service from NatWest. My Nan, a customer for 25+ yrs, has been unable to use her card. She has to wait up to 14 working days for a new telephone banking pin. Despite passing security on the telephone. There is no local branch.

  • finsifu Finsifu (@finsifu) reported

    Breaking: U.K. bank , NatWest, is imposing a daily limit of £1000 ($1,216) and a 30-day payment limit of £5000 to cryptocurrency exchanges to help protect customers losing life changing sums of money!! Banks trying their best to control crypto!! #Banking #Bankcollapse

  • Ihatejammie Jamie (@Ihatejammie) reported

    @NatWest_Help hi, I just been looking at Tastecard and been a customer with Natwest for well over 15 years. It is saying with Natwest you can get a free tastecard but need a redemption code. How do I get a redemption code please?

  • smepathfinder Banking Reform. (@smepathfinder) reported

    Close FOS today they are disgraceful sham for a mediation service! As bad as Lloyds and NatWest.

  • MikemoreiraLuis Bitcoin=freedom (@MikemoreiraLuis) reported

    Crypto is allowing people to take money off banks NatWest ,RBS in the Uk just put a cap on how much you can invest in crypto.“To help keep your money safe from possible scams, we're going to set limits on payments we identify as going to cryptocurrency exchanges #BanksCollapsing

  • demonvent12 ✨VentGoblin✨ (@demonvent12) reported

    @Simondo65 @wheredoyouside @fesshole Face ID for login? Or other biometric security passes. Banks like NatWest have implemented it perfectly fine for this purpose and more. I don't see why we shouldn't have biometric approval for every login on social medias.

  • dbeesley89 Danny Beesley (@dbeesley89) reported

    Okay. @natwest @MastercardUK @IdealWorldTV.. what's going on with the flexipay? My mum tried to order something on 4 Flexi.. but that failed. Said card processing error.. or something. But tried it on 3 and it worked straight away? Someone explain please

  • KamleshMorjari1 Kamlesh Morjaria (@KamleshMorjari1) reported

    @BBCNews UK Banking collapse started... Terrible excuses by NatWest...🤬 Who are they to tell me I can't transfer my money into cyptos🤔. Main reason is to stop a bank run and collapse due to their overleveraging bets. People get your money before your left high and dry.

  • NickSim01100205 Nick Sims (@NickSim01100205) reported

    @NatWest_Help I find it disgusting that Natwest is trying to link a legitimate industry and reputable companies with fraud and scams. I suggest you look closer to home. Bitcoin was created in response to fraud within banks. Account will be close tomorrow. No further help required.

  • CryptoD40059700 Saitama 2023 ✨🥂✨ (@CryptoD40059700) reported

    @AdiRice1 @LloydsBank @Barclays So be it. Natwest will go the way of Blockbuster Video. Be in control of your own money. #SaitaPro (and banks that SUPPORT and EMBRACE #crypto)

  • ZigBigg Bigg Zig (@ZigBigg) reported

    @NatWest_Help Hi @NatWest_Help I started receiving my salary in my Natwest account from January which was fine. I then transferred my savings yesterday from my HSBC to my Natwest account In preparation of getting a mortgage this summer and now I cannot access my account. Please help! Thanks

  • mattfle02898557 Scrunch (@mattfle02898557) reported

    @Crypto_Crib_ Wtf! It's not up to natwest to decide what people do with their own money

  • cyphstorm storm (@cyphstorm) reported

    @User1978656 @NatWest_Help I wonder how the #NatWest team on customer service actually feel about having to be mouthpieces for this blatantly disingenuous message to customers with a straight face.

  • thisisbullish This is Bullish (@thisisbullish) reported

    @mikecosgrove NatWest, and most high-streets have signalled this multiple times already. CB's won't want to help banks either eventually, in favour of consolidation to CBDC's. Meanwhile, decentralised networks grow faster the more they inevitably f-up ad infinitum. Tick-tock next block.

  • FaizTec FAIZ (@FaizTec) reported

    NATWEST SETS £1,000 DAILY LIMIT FOR CUSTOMER CRYPTO ACTIVITIES TO PREVENT SCAMS. $NWG

  • cantalpii cantalpii #saveTF2 (@cantalpii) reported

    @katie_martin_fx @FT £5,000 30-day limit! I'm not amused by NatWest, who in RBS guise almost took down the UK economy, telling me what I can do with my money...

  • Btcdefghi Bitcoin = $10M ( insert $8 blue check ) (@Btcdefghi) reported

    From Tuesday customer transfers to cryptocurrency exchanges will be limited to 5,000 pounds ($6,088) per 30-day period, with no more than 1,000 pounds per day, #NatWest said. - tell me its not your money without telling me its not your money! #Bitcoin

  • kakton23871874 Kak Ton (@kakton23871874) reported

    @CIMBMalaysia I’m sorry for the staffs who had to listen to my rants. I hope whoever manages cimbclicks listens to the recording and take note. I had my card replaced from Natwest UK without this problem. Requested replacement via phone. 0 online banking issue.

  • Bitcoin_CryptoA Bitcoin Crypto Assets DAA (@Bitcoin_CryptoA) reported

    NATWEST'S LIMIT ON DAILY CRYPTO PAYMENTS OF $1,200 IS SHORTSIGHTED. CUSTOMERS DESERVE BETTER THAN ARBITRARY LIMITS IMPOSED BY TRADITIONAL BANKS. IT'S TIME FOR BANKS TO EMBRACE THE CRYPTO MARKET AND OFFER THE FLEXIBILITY CUSTOMERS NEED. BITCOIN FIX THIS!

  • IchimokuScholar Ichimoku Scholar (@IchimokuScholar) reported

    @BTC_JackSparrow Natwest have been no issue until this. Not sure if it affects premier customers. Possibly time to shop around.

  • jonhoneyball Jon Honeyball (@jonhoneyball) reported

    @BarclaysUK I'm simply trying to work out what "banking" means when my local market town branch doesnt handle cash after 2pm. I had to go to Natwest who were very helpful Maybe, as a Premier customer, there is a lesson to be learnt?
