  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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 .

    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

    We suspect Chair Powell will try very hard to avoid saying anything that might be misconstrued as a signal that the inevitable step down in the size of tightening is a pivot toward the end of the tightening cycle," - NatWest Markets.

  • Grenoside Bluebell Cottage (@Grenoside) reported

    @NatWestBusiness Well that would be a miracle when in a few clicks a Natwest business customer is unable to open a Business Reserve account (meeting all criteria that is) and after speaking to 7 different advisers at Natwest taking over 1 hour is still unable to open a Business Reserve account.

  • teefortilly tilly (@teefortilly) reported

    Natwest is such a nightmare if you don’t know your details. Wdym i need to wait 3 days to deceive details by post, I need to access my account TODAY

  • MrpseanZocial Sean | TikTok Ad Creatives (@MrpseanZocial) reported

    @jenahfir Hack: Open up a business Natwest Account and you get lifetime access to the bookkeeping Software called Freeagent

  • OllyMann Olly Mann (@OllyMann) reported

    Had a cheque for £2k. NatWest closed both branches near me. Their app won't accept large cheques. So I deposited it via Post Office, who lost it. I've gone into my overdraft. NatWest say it's the Post Office's problem, and vice-versa. Branch closures are happening too quickly!

  • SatshopUK SatshopUK (@SatshopUK) reported

    @MKL_Solutions I don't require credit facilities or overdrafts so ditched Natwest as it was too expensive... ANNA is basic but works well... For card payments I also ditched TYL by Natwest and went to Takepayments and also had no problems... :-)

  • Adriancarsplane Adrian Haynes (@Adriancarsplane) reported

    @NatWest_Help any NatWest staff able to help with change of address and order a new card

  • mynameisben99 No name (@mynameisben99) reported

    Still @NatWest_Help continue to ignore me and all customers affected by this. I wonder how NatWest staff would feel having over £1000 taken from there account and no access to it??

    Finalamissa tickets in the basket then NatWest goes down 🤡
