    @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

    @NatWest_Help Hi, I have tried on 3 separate occasions to open a bank account for my daughter and it has failed 3 times. I opened one for my eldest girl with no problem. Seriously unimpressed and disappointed! Up to this point I was very impressed with Natwest, but no longer!

    @NatWest_Help No, I search for 'NatWest Bankline Login', using multiple computers. Have had this for the last 3 weeks. Finally got in on 5th attempt today. Get through ID, card reader and password - then get this message.

    @darkmuse @Flycatc08394457 @anon_opin It wasn’t £85k back then. It was £50k, and only because the government increased it. That’s per company, not per bank. So Natwest and RBS are one company. You have 2 accounts? Tough. £50k isn’t an awful lot for a lifetime of hard graft.

    @ianbetteridge I had reason to visit an RBS(NatWest) branch - them who support pronouns on badges - and not at any point did anyone attempt to force anything down my throat. They didn't even offer me a drink, which is sort of the same.

  • dillydallydawn Dawn Elliot (@dillydallydawn) reported

    @DJD_ice @NatWest_Help My @RBS_help is the same problem. I don't think NatWest and RBS know its occurred 🥺

  • AdeleMowat Adele (@AdeleMowat) reported

    @LesStonehouse Relationship Manager for Natwest in Reading UK. Trying to sell stuff that people didn’t need to people who couldn’t afford it. It was awful. Thankfully got pregnant and left after a couple of months.

  • looneymetal Sven (@looneymetal) reported

    @MrDeanP I get what you mean, depends on the context I guess. I've been with santander (Abbey national) since I was 13 I'm now 39. If natwest were offering me a better deal on account. You better believe I'm trying the loyal customer line with santander.

  • TheCalebFowler Caleb (@TheCalebFowler) reported

    Holy **** are NatWest incompetent. If it weren't such a ball ache I'd have switched banks years ago

  • MissTerisaur Miss Terry (@MissTerisaur) reported

    Formerly known as the Royal Bank of Scotland #NatWest almost brought down Britain's financial system in 2008 when it was bailed out by the government for £45bn after then-chancellor Alistair Darling was told it was within hours of running out of money.

  • Rebel_retired Rebel in retirement (@Rebel_retired) reported

    In Trans News (Telegraph Business)- NatWest (which closes branches; tells you your call is important but doesn’t answer; & hates spending money on customer service) will now pay for hormone treatment for trans-staff members. “…for a new loan, press 8, for transitioning, press 9”
