    Just remembered seeing that NatWest at St Philips Place and Temple Row is now closed down. Halifax on Colmore Row might be going too.

    @grantfeller Yet a customer in natwest locally in 2019 was asked what she wanted £5000 for she had to fill in a form, it was for a new kitchen, I was in the queue waiting to be served, it was her money .

    Really disappointing that @NatWest_Help use a web chat service for nok to report a bereavement. Totally impersonal at such a difficult time. So glad I don’t actually bank with you 🥲 #NatWest #Bereavement

  • hardhouse6 JesusJM (@hardhouse6) reported from Birmingham, England

    I will talk about failings by institutions like @Natwest not issuing him any investigation. He’s a vulnerable adult there must be a duty of care or support

  • ChadwickCheri Mrs Spoon (@ChadwickCheri) reported from Swindon, England

    @TeresaTinsel @LloydsBank It’s really annoying when things like this happen. I often find it’s a branch problem. I had an issue with Natwest. One branch couldn’t do something for me, yet another could. So infuriating.

    Going to try Natwest's service where you take a photo of your cheque on the app and upload it so I don't have to trek to a branch. Pray4me

    The only embarrassing thing about last night is my card not working because for some reason natwest shut their system off from half 1-2 like @NatWest_Help sort your life Out

    @BZerbis I needed to withdraw a large amount of cash from natwest when the covid show came to town. They raised the limit I could withdraw from an ATM to 750 per day. That's 1 way to access your cash, do a daily withdraw until all your hard earned savings are out.

    @George_Bligh @MonzoStatus You clown, I pay for a service and should be able to access my money 2 days before Christmas. NatWest never died on me.

  • dani_poole55 Mrs Hall (@dani_poole55) reported

    Thanks @Tesco for ruining Xmas - saying there is a problem with a bank card (@natwest confirms there is not) and refusing to take alternative payment details for our click&collect order- so now our Xmas food delivery is cancelled. What appalling service - unbelievable

  • namboozle Andy Hawkes (@namboozle) reported

    @EvanEdinger I know this doesn't help you but Natwest were great when I closed my HTB ISA. They knew I had to complete it quickly so they prioritised it and I had the closure/certificate within an hour! Took 5 mins on the phone.

    @NFTClarkie been using halifax and natwest since august for crypto and no issues so far clarkie

  • I_am_lucie_ Lucie G (@I_am_lucie_) reported

    How can u think it acceptable, Rbs/NatWest, to freeze someone’s account a few days before Xmas? I have 3 children to feed & a house to keep warm, but no access to money! Any suggestions apart from ‘we complete understand ’?! as I can assure u, u don’t!😡 @RBS_Help @NatWestGroup
