  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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 .

  • aquaticsmum64 AJKearney (@aquaticsmum64) reported from Aldridge, England

    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

    @mrjamesob Since Gordon Brown was responsible for the sale of our gold reserves at the lowest level, sold NatWest down the river to his best buddy Fred the Shred, told us all to buy diesel to ‘save the planet’ it is indeed outrageous that he thinks he has the right to say anything at all!

  • CharlotteDeava1 Charlotte Deavall (@CharlotteDeava1) reported

    @NatWest_Help due to this "logging error", BUT now I will have to start waiting all over again. So I'm just meant to urinate and defecate all over the house apparently. Absolutely disgusting service from NatWest, completely appalled. This needs to be fixed NOW, we pay a premium.

  • JanNewell6 Jan Newell (@JanNewell6) reported

    @Vivi44939724 @Christi77411315 WTF, it’s my money and I will withdraw cash if I want to. Natwest, it is none of your business why I want to withdraw cash.

  • sowthewind1 sowthewind (@sowthewind1) reported

    @GaryChadwicks NatWest: "we may also ask for supporting documentation such as an invoice”. Inference, if your not prepared to show an invoice, or documents that satisfy NatWest, they will block you from withdrawing your savings.

    @RosalindNewsham I've been a NatWest customer since September 1991. Nearly thirty-one years now. Last year - 30th Anniversary - I expected at least a little thank you note from them. Nothing. Disappointing.

  • paul_walker7 paul walker (@paul_walker7) reported

    @davidkurten I have a NatWest credit card I have had for years at 11% they told me it will go down from £5000 to £1000 then few months later they sent me a letter to say my card is frozen and will cancelled soon as my balance is cleared.

  • LeahE653 Leah 💕 (@LeahE653) reported

  • najemQ01 Qays H Najm (@najemQ01) reported

  • DannyScott1878 Danny Scott (@DannyScott1878) reported

    @Truthseeker1031 @LynnPag13705581 @KalsElaine Natwest already do block certain transactions, anything they don’t like for instance crypto exchanges and the likes

  • JonLT02 Jon Lewis (@JonLT02) reported

    @TheSun @DailyMirror @monzo - Story needed to make people aware of Monzo’s policy regarding closing accounts. 5000 people reported this issue happening with Natwest (unfair closure of account) - I am more than happy to go into more detail.
