    @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 .

  • 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.

    @Rheiji1 @tomhfh That said, there are endless subsidies, as you term them, to corporate interests. The government just sold Natwest shares at a £10Bn loss. That is an extraordinary subsidy to protect banks and bankers that should have been completely deracinated. So, what's the problem?

    I got strong-armed into a “financial health check” at NatWest that ended up being a big pitch of their products but the Premier service actually sounds very good. They may have won.

    It appears that my bank (NatWest) is blocking me from purchasing gold on an account that I've already used. Anyone else have similar issues???

    @ReformerDog2 Co op and santander honour your direct debits but don't charge you any fees even if you have no overdraft function on your account You are better off having a **** account in a smaller bank, they look after you, NATWEST is the worst

    @PhilipCoutts1 @bushontheradio Once tried to open an Account at one of your banks they said we only accept new customers who own 12 + corgis and three palaces. I had a stuffed alastain a bedsit in Lewisham and a mad Aunt and uncle with a former cow milking shed near Carlisle. Went down the road to Natwest.

    NatWest is the worst bank known to mankind . 2 days no access because of some bullshit service update 😡

  • JainMrigank MJ (@JainMrigank) reported

    @NatWest I’m being harassed by your dormant team for the past two months for closure of an account of mine which is unused for the last 7 years. Agents Jessica and Michelle interacted on 5/8/25 & 11/8/25 for an hour each but to no avail. Can anyone help?! Any escalation matrix?

  • kalhourd Kal Hourd (@kalhourd) reported

    Sad to see @guildesports go down this way. This is not the legacy so many OG’s worked for! I feel awful for all the players and creators out money owed! We had our challenges as a startup, but always paid our bills (even when #natwest randomly closed our bank account).

    handyman_neil The Google Drive link requires sign-in, preventing access to the image. Based on the filename "P O BoxNatwest.png," it likely shows a NatWest Bank PO Box address. NatWest uses several, like PO Box 5612 (Manchester) for bereavement services or PO Box 3138 for investments. Make it public or provide details for deeper analysis.
