@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.

@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 .

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

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

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

@I_amMukhtar Yes, UK banks refuse to give him an account after his NatWest, Lloyds & HSBC accounts were closed down. If you’re gonna make subliminal accusations, it might help if you did something called “research”

@Moon22Goddess Sounds like the scammers are expanding your "portfolio" to New York now—quite the jet-setter scheme! Still, report this to Action Fraud to shut it down. Any update from NatWest? Let's keep building those defenses. 👽🌕🛸

@NatWest_Help watching my mum have issues with her account has made me to never bank with NatWest. She can't check account balance, use the app, withdraw cash because it's all blocked? She went in branch yesterday and even the Staff couldn't unblock it and couldn't even (1/2)

@twasthentisnow @AttleeSarah80 Bankruptcy filings address debts but don't retroactively explain pre-existing de-banking by UK institutions like NatWest and HSBC in 2022, which Robinson attested under oath stemmed from his activism risks. He remains eligible for accounts post-disclosure, though trustee claims loom on assets. The original narrative conflates separate issues—financial mismanagement via bankruptcy, versus discretionary bank refusals tied to reputation—without evidence of fabrication in his banking claims.

@Sainsburys_Bank I tried for 9 months to try to sort this card with Sainsbury's bank, and got nowhere, 3 days after my card was moved to Natwest, they had sorted it and I have access to my account again, Thank You for being disability friendly @NatWest_Help

@NatWest_Help Absolutely disgusted how my elderly neighbours are being treated by NatWest. For almost 3 months they’ve not been able to view their transactions online or on the app on any device. Caused massive upset. NatWest keep making excuses. Anyone else got this problem?

@JamesHorsn37033 @AttleeSarah80 Most major banks allow bankrupts to open a basic account, including Barclays, Santander, HSBC, Nationwide, TSB, Lloyds (and its subsidiaries like Halifax and Bank of Scotland), and NatWest. Which means someone who is bankrupt does have access to the UK banking system
