    @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.

    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

  • 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

    @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 .

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

    @lucymitv @GranadaReports NatWest closed all our local branches which prevented us from going there. I sometimes travel to the inconveniently located bank. If it was a service they would make both available. They do not put customer service first whatever the marketing department says. 👎

  • geordysocialist yvonne💙 🤎#P&J (@geordysocialist) reported

    Wow, I'm lucky that I don't have debt on my credit card, because NatWest have just written that their interest rate will rise by almost 50% on existing and new credit card balances in September. How is this legal? Kicking people when they're down.

    @LoveChizzyy @StreetSweeper47 I saw you open your NatWest app infront of her blazer boy. Piss off. Where’s **** Chizzy? Had enough of this.

  • aman0981 Aman (@aman0981) reported

    @NatWest_Help Worst bank in the world, their customer service levels are ****, they have closed 1000’s of accounts with no reason given, absolute scum bags. The British public bailed out RBS Natwest because their bosses are scum bag leeches #fucknatwest #SundayThoughts

  • trafalgarartuk Richard John Holden RA (Lord Birkenhead) (@trafalgarartuk) reported

    @newlands_chris Hi Chris, my account in natwest was closed 3 weeks ago, I was with them for 29 years. I'm a disabled soldier and my War pension was paid into my natwest for 29 years without any problem. I have £16 left Broke with 3 kids stuck in the Philippines

  • WarriorWheeled Wheeled Warrior (@WarriorWheeled) reported

    @NatWest_Help I'm curious how working disabled people visit their local branches if they don't open on a Saturday? What reasonable adjustments have Natwest made to ensure they comply with the EqA2010?

  • iamlindasarah linda sarah (@iamlindasarah) reported

    @NatWest_Help Mr NatWest, Another thing, 'never stop starting' ?! The problems in using meaningless, but profound-sound slogans, are myriad. You're a bank. You profit from people with the least. In light of this, what ******** does: 'never stop starting' mean?! Is it to do with Groundhog Day?

  • mrkeer Vikas Keer (@mrkeer) reported

    @NatWest_Help @NatWest Please stop harassing me and return my money. You've kept it for 10years now, your reclaims department is the worst ever in the world. As a last resort taking on social media, hoping someone in @NatWestGroup will help. Case Reference - PHO-XXXXXX3722
