  I was in a union at NatWest and honestly they seemed more interested in protecting the company relationship than representing ordinary staff. So spare me the lecture that unions automatically speak for all working people.

  NatWest Group $NWG completed the acquisition of Evelyn Partners with an enterprise value of £2.7 billion on 30 June 2026. The acquisition transforms NatWest Group's financial planning and investment management capabilities, and it is expected to generate pre-revenue synergies of 20%, increasing fee income and boosting exposure to the structurally higher growth UK wealth market. Evelyn Partners had £69 billion of Assets Under Management and Administration at the end of 2025, which combined with NatWest Group's £59 billion, would have brought total AUMA to £127 billion and total Customer Assets and Liabilities to £188 billion, or c.20% of NatWest Group's CAL.

  @NatwestB @TunnelGuruVPN NatWest bank Bedford, what a shower of ****. Me and my Mrs have banked with this lot for 30+ years and we cannot even take our own cash out in large amounts! Twice we had meetings totalling about 4 hours and they ask the same questions and we answer every one but still no cash.

  @ZackPolanski Never mind me just down voting the community notes that are willfully ignoring the very valid point. It you got arrested for running into NatWest and smashing up their display, charged for it, then got done for robbing the bank later with no jury or due process you'd kick off.

  Chancellor John Healey has declined to rule out a higher tax on banks in his first budget under Prime Minister Andy Burnham, due on October 28. In letters to cabinet ministers this week, Healey said there was no new money available for spending commitments and that all announcements must be funded from within existing budgets, while also warning that Britain’s rising welfare bill must be controlled. He did not explicitly target banks, but the Treasury is under pressure after the TUC called for higher levies on the sector to help fund energy bill relief, and after a year of strong profits. Barclays reported half year profits up 17 percent to 6.1 billion pounds, Lloyds up 23 percent to 4.3 billion pounds and NatWest also up 20 percent to 4.3 billion pounds, figures that make lenders an obvious target for a cash strapped chancellor looking to meet fiscal rules. The debate comes as Burnham settles into Downing Street and sticks to the borrowing rules inherited from Rachel Reeves, requiring day to day spending to be matched by revenue within three years. Healey and Burnham have written that each department has a responsibility to manage within its budget and help bring inflation down. Burnham himself has said he may need to ask people to pay a little more, and has refused to rule out a wealth tax, though he has committed to the manifesto pledge not to raise VAT, income tax or National Insurance rates. The OECD warned this month that Britain’s tax burden is already at its highest since 1948 and urged spending cuts instead of new revenue measures. Banks are lobbying hard against any new levy, arguing UK lenders already pay significantly higher tax than peers in New York and other European capitals, and that competitiveness would suffer. With defence spending, social care and technical education all competing for funds, Healey’s budget will test how far the government is willing to go on sector specific taxes before leaning on broader reprioritisation. - World Business News.

  @Bankersbonus1 @ADavies61517 @afneil During the 2008 financial crisis, the UK government stepped in to rescue major banks including Royal Bank of Scotland, Lloyds Banking Group, Northern Rock and Bradford & Bingley. The state directly spent around £137 billion in capital injections and emergency support, while offering over £1 trillion in guarantees to stop the banking system collapsing. Most of the money was eventually recovered, but taxpayers are still estimated to have lost around £30–35 billion overall, with the biggest losses coming from the RBS/NatWest bailout. Worth remembering the next time someone says the banks “were fine”.

  @NatWest_Help 35 years as a NatWest personal and business customer and zero understanding of my business or the support you’d expect from your bank. Utterly aghast…..

  Anyone else having problems with their NatWest Banking App following the last 2 phone updates? Last time I had to phone NW and they said they had others saying the same. I had to delete and reinstate my APP. I had an update last night and now can’t get in my NW Banking APP again
