  Linda Pennock🙂 (@LindaPennock1) reported 7 minutes ago

  @bsd_junkie @DamianLow3 She stepped down after admitting she was the source who discussed Farage’s relationship with Coutts with a BBC journalist. NatWest said the disclosure of confidential customer information was unacceptable.

  Quantum readiness programs feel like progress. They aren't. NatWest and 10 others joined NQCC's QTAP cohort 3, awareness, not migration. Different problems. QuanChain's oracle-triggered key rotation solves the second in under 90 days, no protocol vote. Should regulators require migration proof, not just program enrollment, before 2028?

  Just moved another £3,000 into my NS&I Premium Bonds. It came from money sitting in my NatWest account that I kept dipping into whenever I needed it. I’ve now only got around £1,000 left in that account, with another £2,000 salary due tomorrow. The idea is simple: if the money isn’t sat in my current account, I’m less tempted to transfer it back and spend it. Sometimes the best financial decisions aren’t about earning a higher return-they’re about making it harder to spend. Has anyone else changed the way they organise their money to help them save more?

  Elon Musk, shall I tell you what else those NatWest employees—who scammed me out of 300 pounds—did? They kept blocking my contactless payments; and they send me a message asking me to reply "yes" if I try to make the payment or "no" if I didn't. I reply "yes," confirming I try to make the payment, and they send a follow-up message saying I could use my card—yet my card remained blocked. I called NatWest customer service and explained the situation to the representative: I replied "yes" to the message and was told I could use my card again, but I still couldn't use it because it was blocked. The representative was surprised, said they didn't know why this had happened, and reactivated my card. Elon Musk, they kept blocking my contactless payments—and let me put this in a way you'd understand: they didn't do it for security reasons. In fact, I hadn't made a single payment with that card yet; I tried to make a contactless payment somewhere but couldn't because they had blocked it. The shop assistant even told me, "They probably blocked it because you made too many contactless payments today"—even though I hadn't used the card anywhere before that.

  @kasabasak @DanielEllisUK Either, I've always done it with webchat when NatWest has gone down with no problems

  Most banks can't afford a $1bn AI transformation. BankrAI gives them the same thing for a fraction of the cost. Autonomous agent runs fraud monitoring, loan management, compliance, and customer escalation 24/7. Built by someone who watched NatWest do it.

  @12beattiestp @PedeJo__ @isabelrosesss this is correct. the bank is natwest (rbs) nobody has access to anything and everything is scrambled outside of production. i dont think theres even a fat unix wizard who has access to read production, from what i remember working there

  @CraigMurrayOrg I had similar with NatWest about 15 years ago. Suddenly decided I was running my business through my account. As a sole trader, invoices were paid into it but I argued that was no different from having a salary paid in. They eventually stood down

  Today’s @ShabanaMahmood “Don’t Pay We Won’t Take You Away” Award winner is Iftehar Ahmed director of AK Touchstone Limited. The @ukhomeoffice slapped his Company with a £30,000 civil penalty for employing two people with no right to work in the UK. He said **** right off I’m not paying that, so didn’t and didn’t pay a £47,362.00 Bounce Back Loan either, and has just been given a 5 Year Director ban instead. So the Government never got the £30,000 and would have had to pay back NatWest the £47,362.00 for Bounce Back Loan too. Lovely….
