  • 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

  • ellrbrown Elliott Brown (@ellrbrown) reported from Birmingham, England

    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

  • 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.

    @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 .

    @NatWest_Help I’m trying to pay £500 from my ‘Select account’ into my @HalifaxBank ‘kids monthly saver’ and everytime the NatWest screen says ‘paid’ then the money bounces back …. Whos at fault and how do I fix this?? #Help

    High street banks ended as the worst performers after the Bank of England defied market expectations as it kept interest rates on hold. NatWest closed down 5.6%, Lloyds down 4.5% and Barclays down 3.9%. Higher interest rates mean lenders have a bigger margin to play with.

    Travelling today, sure I heard a Tory chancellor on radio saying businesses will be required to state their green business models for government approval. Someone from NatWest saying they'll only support those with approved types of business. Sorry, has Jeremy Corbyn become PM?

    @toner_aaron I've done a Revolut app mate, ...Nationwide/natwest shut down payments Binance, criminal that they can shut it down off the back of a few scam claims

  • TweetLorimer Matt Lorimer (@TweetLorimer) reported

    @otherJaneFallon Went to uni until 2010 and did a degree in surveying.... then i got a job at RBS/Natwest and worked in change, did lean six sigma etc, then it got restructured and got a job in digital/online & app banking. Since 2016 worked in 3rd sector and Civil Service

    @Liam_bwfc Can’t remember exactly mate it was absolutely irrelevant and stupid though, winging how **** NatWest are because she ‘couldn’t spend her money’ even though she could spend it just not check her online banking/app or something like that

    @goldengreek8 @TheLongerGame No need for placing, talking shite. They sold mortgage portfolio to Natwest earlier in the year to help with liquidity and MREL requirements
