Credit where it is due. Samantha at Natwest got it sorted and compensated me for the problems. Well done to her. @NatWest_Help should be grateful. @AskNationwide the ball is in your court to keep me as a customer.

Not having the best of luck with NatWest this week. Just sat down to write a cheque, only to realise they’ve spelled my name with three As in my new chequebook. I’ve always thought the legitimate two was excessive!

@org_scp @HHelenakhl @NatWest_Help In conversation with someone in NatWest HO early 2021 after the loss of my mother, re misinformation about a local branch & services I was told that all branches would close & everyone at HO was aware hence service reductions. Someone on twitter called me a liar.

Going around in circles, neither @NatWest_Help nor @pandocruises are helping! Natwest have said P&O can't take the money and it bounces back and P&O say they don't have an issue with the payments system. 🙈 Do you want the money or not???

@shellenberger I live in the UK, my bank (Natwest) just refused me access to my own money and stopped me transferring money to a family relative. It told them it was a gift but they said it "sounded suspious" and declined the transaction. They refused to tell me how I can get it approved.

@NatWest_Help Natwest please respond to this! Just sent this to Natwest... I need some urgent help. Earlier today you did one of those transaction check texts to which i replied Y. It was for a sandwich from Gregga I later tried to use my card to charge my car at marks and spencer. It was declined several times. I telephoned natwest and was told the card would work. I went in marks and spencer and again my card was declined several times. I have apoken to 5 people at natwest. Have been told several times the card would work but it wouldnt. I was then told by natwest staff it was nothing i had done and there was nothing suspicious on my account. It was a 'bank policy' but they could/would not tell me what policy. So i have done nothing wrong, my card allegedly isnt blocked but m@s took my food off me and i am now sat in the car park unable to charge my car or get home. I have been asked if there is a Tesco near. I have no idea. You want me to walk down the motorway?!!! I am now stranded. I asked the natwest staff if i was a little old lady or disabled person would they leave me stranded? I was told yes. Please advise what i do!!!!! This was the reply... 5:39 pm Hi Matthew. I appreciate it’s not ideal to be faced with this, especially when needing to charge your car to get home, so I do completely understand your frustration. Just to be honest with you, if a payment has been declined due to bank policy, there wouldn’t be anything we can do to override this sadly. The Bank has mechanisms in place to protect you from transactions that may have been classified as high risk. Due to the quantity and pace of transactions that are made on a daily basis, Bank Policies are constantly needing to adjust due to Industry trends. And as a result, transactions that were previously approved now may be declined. We are unable to provide specific details of the policy itself, nor can we say if this will always be the case. The Bank has these policies in place purely to keep yourself and your money safe and secure. Would you have access to another card you could use to make the payment from in the meantime? ~Emma I replied 5:55 pm No. Its the only card i have. Im stranded No reply from natwest 6:07 pm What kind of company is this?! 6:17 pm I am stranded because of natwest. Please do not ignore me 6:19 pm ? Still no reply and funnily enough no promised call back from anyone at natwest. This is appalling

@MikeTappTweets @DementiaUK Zero influence on the banks. Barclays, NatWest etc plan for hubs when they decide to close local branches. They proactively contact local MPs and inform them what will be done. MPs have no say in the decision. "Working hard--" is disingenuous claptrap!

@NatWest_Help Sent you a DM now @NatWest_Help - basically outlining how NatWest have totally lost the customer focus and care. They rely on automated systems and automated updates rather than provide a solution for their customers to work with them. Computer says no! Awful.

NatWest’s bizarre changes to their mortgage portal continue to baffle me. Why can’t I just log in like I did before? I have no idea how to get in to it every time I try to now.

@NatWestGroup NatWest is an absolute joke. I was told on the 13th of June that someone would be in contact with me in 5 working days. 6 week later they still haven’t bothered. Customer service obviously doesn’t matter to them? Goodjob NatWest 👏 👏
