  @BarclaysUKHelp @NatWest_Help I made payment at 11:43 and it’s still not reached my NatWest account - can someone please assist me as it’s a large sum of money & this delay shouldn’t be occurring if the FPS is working fine

  @NatWest_Help are there any issues today with receiving faster payments ? I sent an FP this morning from @Barclays earlier today and it hasn’t been credited to my NatWest account

  @Barclays is there any issue with your faster payment services ? I have done a transfer which hasn’t yet reached my NatWest UK account - it’s usually immediate or as good as. I did this payment earlier this morning. TIA

  This #NatWest "family backed mortgage" doesn't do anything to help underprivileged people at all, just gives people with potentially hefty inheritances another option to buy a house they are probably likely to get anyway...let's not pretend this is great for the average Joe.

  @CR1337 If your withdrawal is legit, then what's the issue here? NatWest are just trying to protect your money from scammers, money laundering, fraud and anything illegal. They have a duty of care towards their customers. This is a sign of a good bank, which is why I bank with them.

  Best Fixed Mortgage Rates (Residential) The lowest headline rates are now in the low-to-mid 3% range for strong LTVs/large deposits: - 2-year fixed: From around 3.55% (top deals, often requiring low LTV/high deposit; e.g., NatWest at 3.62% for 40% deposit/first-time buyers). - 5-year fixed: From around 3.75% (e.g., NatWest competitive at 3.75% for 40% deposit). - Other highlights: - No-fee 2-year fixed (60% LTV): ~4.04% (TSB). - No-fee 5-year fixed (60% LTV): ~3.91% (Nationwide). - 95% LTV (high loan-to-value, e.g., smaller deposits): ~4.68% (Nationwide for 2-year). Averages (across all deals): 2-year fixed ~4.31–4.82%, 5-year ~4.9%. SVRs (revert rates) sit around 7.27% — much higher! Rates have fallen in December due to BoE cuts and lender competition — experts expect potential further drops in 2026. ### Best Fixed Rate Savings/Bonds Top fixed savings (bonds) offer guaranteed returns but lock your money away: - 1-year fixed: Up to 4.46% AER (e.g., LHV Bank or similar; some at 4.40–4.5%). - Longer terms: 2–5 years around 4.21–4.31% (e.g., UBL UK 3-year at 4.21%, Hampshire Trust 5-year at 4.31%). - Easy access alternatives: Up to ~4.5% (for flexibility, though not fixed).

  @Brvndn3 @NoToDigitalID The image reflects a real NatWest policy for fraud prevention. For large cash withdrawals (e.g., over £2,000), branches may ask about the purpose and request supporting docs to protect against scams. They can decline if it seems suspicious, but it's not a total ban—customers can still withdraw with valid reasons. This aligns with UK anti-fraud rules, not a new 2025 restriction.

  @StephenMulhern You could come and see the duck outside the job centre in Heanor, or I could take you down the road to Ilkeston where the top rated thing on Trip Advisor is a hole in the wall next to NatWest

  @NatWest_Help hey folks! My sister banks with you still - she’s just found a car that my dad will buy for her. She needs to transfer £7k from her account to him also a NatWest customer. How can she temporarily up her limits?

  @FFS_WhatNow @zaphod799 I’m reminded of when NatWest’s computer went south over a weekend. They’d fired the old sysadmins who knew the ancient system for Indians who lied about knowing the arcane programming language. NW had to hire sysadmins as consultants to fix it.

  @NatWest I cannot believe your complete inefficiency. I am A Premier customer. I have been treated abominably today and I feel vulnerable.
