    Did you know NatWest offers one of the most competitive home insurance policies starting from around £4.25pcm for renters. This was what I was informed, when I went in to resolve a personal banking issue.

    @BarclaysUKHelp It’s okay, a few other customers were having issues with Barclays so the put our trolleys aside whilst I nipped home for my NatWest account card.

  • jshield1988 jamie shield (@jshield1988) reported from Wallsend, England

    @leiper_danielle @AskNationwide I'm with NatWest (who don't have payment issues) didn't get payment. Rang DWP and they confirmed payment issue at their end. You may end up with a double payment (it may go in again on Tuesday).

  • rl_chris_higham Chris Higham (@rl_chris_higham) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @davidpolymath NatWest have been plugging a rewards account which needs you to login to the app monthly to get some of the rewards..rather than "charging" branch/telephony users they are "rewarding" digital users. Sounds less controversial!

    @MartinSLewis Natwest 20 years after a terrible period with TSB

  • TonyMelvin2 Tony Melvin (@TonyMelvin2) reported

    @NatWest_Help NatWest customer service is absolutely terrible. I was told they would contact me within 5working day? 3 weeks later I’ve just give up. Use a better bank.

  • vvatherton Victoria Atherton (@vvatherton) reported

    @sophielouisecc @Barclays NatWest have such tight security you can barely access your own account half the time as they suspect you’re a fraudster.

  • timarnold Tim Arnold (@timarnold) reported

    I've since received a reply from a Natwest 'human' on X which shows some care and understanding. Which begs the question: why make automated responses the default, if good old fashioned human connection is the only thing that makes a customer feel human themselves?

    NatWest Commercial Services can't talk to me. I'm not authorised. I'll give you a code and call you back. Can you ring my landline as I don't have a mobile signal at home. No @NatWest_Help Worst Dept on the planet. Never fail to not help the customer and make my life difficult

    @sophielouisecc Phone apps for HSBC, NatWest + Chase = pick 6 digit pin similar to Barclays app Phone app for Halifax = specific letters from memorable word, also good to use Phone app for Nationwide = having to remember specific numbers from 6 digit customer number (always have to look it up)

  • ConservativeCCh ConservativeChitChat (@ConservativeCCh) reported

    @sophielouisecc HSBC or Nationwide.... possibly also NatWest... I've been testing out a buttload for the past year or so. Opening an HSBC current a/c also gives you access to their "online bonus saver" savings account, which pays interest monthly.

  • rmhaha21 idklol (@rmhaha21) reported

    @NatWest_Help HIIII, I'm an existing NatWest customer and looking to apply for a credit card. I’m currently unable to receive post at home — is it possible to collect the card from a local branch instead? Would appreciate your help before applying. Thanks!

  • ConservativeCCh ConservativeChitChat (@ConservativeCCh) reported

    @sophielouisecc NatWest offer current account customers access to their "Digital Regular Saver" account that pays 5.50% monthly interest if you pay in regularly every month (was 6% when I opened one last year)...... debit card looks like an acid trip (purple, yellow & white)

    @RefugeesGB @sophielouisecc @Barclays I’m happy with NatWest and their customer service. The app for my iPad is good too. Any problems have been sorted quickly.
