Who else has been a victim of card fraud at the NatWest Ealing Broadway branch? On Wednesday morning, the NatWest ATM swallowed my debit card, then it stopped working, subsequently my card was used in frauduleus transactions. @NatWest_Help @NatWestGroup @metpoliceuk

@NatWest_Help getting a replacement card appears to be mission impossible with NatWest. Currently having a conversation in the app and the agent replies after one hour! What is your excuse @NatWest? Worst bank ever

Not particularly impressed with my local @NatWest_Help branch today in trying to open a trust fund. “It’s all on the app” - what about actually providing actual customer service? 😩 #natwest

@TicketmasterCS help please! I never received a booking confirmation email or my posted tickets for a show tonight. I booked via NatWest black membership app so they aren’t showing in my ticketmaster account either - how do I get hold of my tickets? Thanks

This means that she @NatWest_Help stole the cash and withdrew the same amount from the customer's account. The customer is now out of pocket twice the amount. Natwest is simply disputing this and covering it up. More employees may be involved so always check your receipts.

@LBC If you ride a sports bike 750cc and above. It is practically impossible to ride at 20mph. You then become a danger trying your damdest trying to do so. And poo bags to NatWest giving a Male a year off for the newborn. Demetri Turin

@Brightstar have just tried to call you through Natwest to get help to register my phone but instead someone picked up my call and apparently a private call as well, and I was left hanging with no answer tor several minutes until I gave up. Not a great experience

@NatWest_Help Embarrassed at the lack of help you have shown in a cost of living crisis. Separating from my partner and selling the house. You offer us a new 2 year mortgage deal when my rate ran out? #natwest #jokebank Been with you over 25 years. #mse

‘You’re suggesting I take out a loan, to deal with a cash flow issue resulting from NatWest’s incompetence?’ ‘No, I didn’t say that. The lending team can do all sorts of things’ Right… 11/

@NatWest_Help. I accidentally paid funds to a NatWest Credit Card via faster payment. This credit card was closed a few years back. It took me 3 calls to get some info & I was advised it could take up to 21 days. I am a NatWest customer & it was paid to NatWest Account.

Not having the best of luck with NatWest this week. Just sat down to write a cheque, only to realise they’ve spelled my name with three As in my new chequebook. I’ve always thought the legitimate two was excessive!

For all the chat about how incumbents are lagging - NatWest is showing how it should be done. Deep Innovation, working with regulators, delivering new services at a scale others can only dream of. Let’s see if that forces some of the laggards to - finally - act.

Credit where it is due. Samantha at Natwest got it sorted and compensated me for the problems. Well done to her. @NatWest_Help should be grateful. @AskNationwide the ball is in your court to keep me as a customer.

@NatWestGroup NatWest Group just texted me saying money will appear in my account in 3–5 working days. Really? In 2025? Instant transfers are standard now. It’s disappointing that a major bank still moves this slowly. Business people should think twice before relying on NatWest Business debt

@Shyamra42537029 @JamesWynnReal Lloyds and Natwest, Jersey are worse than HSBC. Worse service and stricter requirements (not only minimum deposit-wise). Santander could be good, though, that I have not tried. I think it is advisable to have premier banking outside of the EU and in LATAM, Uruguay is the safest.

(@grok) reported
@ArgyriM @wolsned The image shows a real NatWest bank policy for fraud prevention, where they may ask about the purpose of large cash withdrawals (over £2,000) and could decline them at discretion. This isn't a new UK government law requiring permission for all cash use or spending. Fact-checkers like Full Fact confirm no automatic reporting of withdrawals over £200 starts in 2025—such claims are false. Banks have long had anti-fraud measures, but cash access remains available.

Went into a NatWest today and there was a corporate notice about an ATM dispensing £50 notes. Not exclusively but as a default for transactions of that value or higher. The customer service dashed over to notify me that this was a BoE prescription. A signal? @DominicFrisby

NatWest OA was conducted on the SHL platform there were 4 sections - Automata (Coding-DSA), English, General Ability (Aptitude) & SQL. 1st DSA problem was easy - given an input and received String with one character missing, we had to find the missing char.

@wolsned I've been a NatWest customer since 1992. There has been a notice period for withdrawals over £2k for as long as I can remember. I'd rather there be a restriction as it limits the chance of fraud.

@xyz_husayn @BGatesIsaPyscho The post appears to warn of impending restrictions on cash access, based on this NatWest anti-fraud policy requiring notice for withdrawals over £2,000 and allowing denials. Similar rules have been in place since 2023. UK economy faces slowing growth and rate cuts to 4%, but no confirmed crisis event. Diversifying assets can be prudent amid uncertainty.
