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

    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

  • 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

  • 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 .

    I think Natwest have work experience girls in. One watched me try & pay cheques in on the ATM then said it was broken & to use the other. Then I paid a bill in an envelope via their special letterbox. Another panicked & asked if I’d used an envelope. I KNOW HOW BANKING WORKS

    @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.

    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.

    Banks. Natwest shut. Santander has no cash and Barclays wont help as not a customer. End up in a Carousel changing up £20 notes in their change machine. That's Eltham for you.

  • Smegger3 Binsey Poplar (@Smegger3) reported

    @alexbloodfire Gotta hand it to Stonewall and co: they really know how to shake down a client. #NatWest are so gullible to offer this windfall to a protection racket. They've been had. What a wunch of bankers.

    @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.

    @NatWest_Help Just DMd you with a letter reference that NatWest Fraud refused to recognise. Major issues with your Fraud Dept

  • Twitarian2 Twitarian (@Twitarian2) reported

    @LBC You couldn’t make this **** up. Thank goodness I don’t bank with #natwest

    @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.

    @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!
