    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

  • Martyn210 Martyn2😀 (@Martyn210) reported from Dudley, England

    @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 .

  • 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

    @NatWest_Help I have been with NatWest as a business customer 18 years. This is the worst experience I have ever had with any company.

  • mikeg24764 Mike Gregory (@mikeg24764) reported

    Johnson: 'Putin has broken international law' You'd think he would stay off the entire subject of law-breaking, unless national laws don't count and I'm okay to rob the NatWest this afternoon but shouldn't do any piracy.

  • Wickedskeng1 ismaila skeng🇬🇲🇬🇧 (@Wickedskeng1) reported

  • HurricaneHelz HurricaneHelz (@HurricaneHelz) reported

    @RBS_Help @NatWest_Help Gave up after a full hour & after seeing tweets with same issue but way longer wait times! Only found out of takeover from our bank Fraud Section following Direct Debit amend. Had been unable to change address on NatWest CTF online hence unaware of RBS take over or new reference

  • Dannycycles Daniel Ball (@Dannycycles) reported

    @NatWest_Help my NatWest app is saying “Oops, we’ve had to log you out of the app, please log in again to complete your request.” Is takes facial recognition and repeats this message every single time. Any help please?

  • DonPingus Pedro Beato Vallejo (@DonPingus) reported

    HOW ******** DID THIS WOMAN BLOCK ME ON NATWEST???????? WHAT ******** I WAS JUST TRYING TO SEND MONEY BACK

  • LornaWardrope MrsWardrope (@LornaWardrope) reported

    @Mr_Chmiel NatWest seem to be more accepting of our situation (ie my temp contract). Decision in principle no problem, though obviously that’s not in any way a guarantee. Nationwide said my income wouldn’t count but my expenses would! 🙄Hoping to get an appt with an independent advisor soon
