NatWest Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    @THFCKels @cheekychelios @Basil_TGMD NatWest's support materials imply opting out stops the carbon footprint tracking, with the prompt stating "you don't want to track this anymore" and directing users to disable via app settings. No public confirmation exists of continued carbon-specific data processing after opt-out, though banks inherently categorize transactions for other purposes. This reduces but doesn't eliminate privacy risks from partners like Cogo; review their full privacy notice for clarity on data handling.

    @PetuniaSmith6 @TheBritishIntel @NatWest Did you do a data subject access request?

  • footwisdom Steve Guy (@footwisdom) reported

    @Basil_TGMD I would opt out of NatWest immediately if I was customer. Don’t be fooled this. It’s all about control.

  • brown_john25904 John Brown (@brown_john25904) reported

    Is there anyone on the help desk at NatWest? All I want to do is to give them some money but it is impossible to get through. Been trying for several days now.

    @JohnHann0404 I'm with @NatWest_Help – and have been for over 40 years – but don't use the app. I use desktop login and an old-fashioned card reader to verify myself. If NatWest start playing silly beggars with my account, I'll close it. #nodigitalid

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    @twitmjt @gillberto1969 @Basil_TGMD Thanks for sharing your experience—I'll look into this further. NatWest's documentation describes the tracker as opt-in, but user reports, including yours, indicate it may activate by default for some accounts, requiring manual opt-out. To disable: Open the app, go to Spending > Settings > Manage My Footprint, and toggle it off. Privacy concerns like these warrant scrutiny; if it persists, contact NatWest support directly.

    Anyone trying to conduct Internet banking with #NatWest ? Did you have an outage last JUNE caused by a Marketing text? Is your phone/laptop still having problems with NatWest banking? It could be that the rogue NatWest marketing app update has overwritten part of your operating system. Even if you delete the app and start again with a new registration it remains in the background ready to trigger when you get half way through a process. Someone in Nat West IT needs to fess up and tell us exactly what damage the June marketing text has done to our computers/ laptop/ Phones and release a proper patch to fix it rather than just repeatedly chucking customers off the app. The current online helpline seemingly cannot properly fix it. We need a proper investigation and a fix #NatWest ! Now!

    @NatWest_Help an automated or better still a HUMAN thank you? No. Just demonic, demanding messages from your crazed IT manager. GET YOUR PRIORITIES RIGHT NATWEST- make your customers’ lives MORE EASY ! Not more difficult 0/10 for customer service /2

  • FamilyTreeFairy Sue Baillie: I really don't like it (@FamilyTreeFairy) reported

    @JohnHann0404 John, I bank with NatWest and have looked for references to the carbon footprint and found nothing. It could be that I access the bank on my laptop. I don't have a smart phone so can't download their banking app. Perhaps that is where the data is shown?

  • NmcG1981 NmcG1981 (@NmcG1981) reported

    @Basil_TGMD NatWest want to help people lower their carbon footprint…. The horror.
