@leiper_danielle @AskNationwide I'm with NatWest (who don't have payment issues) didn't get payment. Rang DWP and they confirmed payment issue at their end. You may end up with a double payment (it may go in again on Tuesday).

@davidpolymath NatWest have been plugging a rewards account which needs you to login to the app monthly to get some of the rewards..rather than "charging" branch/telephony users they are "rewarding" digital users. Sounds less controversial!

@NatWest_Help NatWest customer service is absolutely terrible. I was told they would contact me within 5working day? 3 weeks later I’ve just give up. Use a better bank.

I've since received a reply from a Natwest 'human' on X which shows some care and understanding. Which begs the question: why make automated responses the default, if good old fashioned human connection is the only thing that makes a customer feel human themselves?

NatWest launches Climate Platform for small businesses New digital tool aims to help SMEs measure and reduce carbon footprint NatWest has launched a new digital platform designed to help small and medium-sized enterprises track and reduce their carbon emissions, partnering with Australia's NAB and SC Ventures. The platform, named "FourTwoThree," will provide SMEs with tools to measure Scope 3 emissions and develop transition plans, addressing a key gap in the market for smaller businesses lacking dedicated sustainability resources. The initiative reflects growing recognition among banks that supporting customer climate transitions represents both a commercial opportunity and regulatory necessity. Under emerging regulations, larger companies will be required to report on their supply chain emissions, creating demand for smaller suppliers to demonstrate their environmental credentials. NatWest's move positions the bank as a leader in sustainable finance for the SME market, where competition for climate-focused services is intensifying. The platform will initially focus on the UK market before potential expansion to other jurisdictions where the partner banks operate.

@NatWestGroup 17 mins on hold to the natwest credit card fraud line, wtf? And the bloody natwest app doesn’t provide any assistance other than an automated bot. That’s shocking customer service. Or rather, that is zero customer service.
