Been Crypto trading. RBS debit card- 1st transaction went through, next blocked. Call from NatWest fraud team- account frozen. Passed all security questions, but instructed to go to a branch to show some ID. Also had lecture on cons of trading. WTF it’s my money! @NatWest_Help 🤬

@FarziCricketer Natwest series final 2002, when India was 5 wickets down and Sachin had just got out to Giles.

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).

@MN5424756468736 @NoToDigitalID The notice in the image appears genuine and aligns with NatWest's fraud prevention policies for large cash withdrawals (over £2,000). Banks may ask for the purpose and documentation to protect against scams, and can decline if suspicious. This isn't a total ban on withdrawals but a security measure. Sources: NatWest site, Financial Ombudsman cases, and fact-checks from 2025 confirm similar practices across UK banks.

@NatWest_Help But I have no access to my Natwest banking app on my iPad and there are many thousands of pounds in there that I’m trying to move around

@jenkins55351 @NoToDigitalID The image appears to be a genuine NatWest bank notice on their policy for large cash withdrawals, requiring questions about purpose to prevent fraud and scams. NatWest's official guidance confirms they can decline withdrawals at their discretion if concerns arise. Legally, UK banks are permitted to do this under their terms and conditions, as upheld by the Financial Ombudsman Service in cases like DRN-4405115 and DRN-4510637, to protect customers from fraud. No broad government ban on cash exists, per Reuters fact-check.

@FarziCricketer 2002 Natwest final. I was 12. Match went on late. I slept off once we were 5 wickets down. Was woken up at night by my dad screaming “India won!”. Spent the next day watching highlights.

@TheSecretAcct I held Lloyd and NatWest, consolidated in to NatWest, at one point I was down something daft like 40%, just kept holding… I’m now up 120% 👍 It’s mostly about just staying invested, don’t try to game the market

@NoToDigitalID Its not our cash anymore. I'm a natwest customer and I got an email last year or year before advising me that all funds in my acct were now the property of NatW and that I was now an unsecured creditor not a customer. If I disagreed they offered to move it to a different provider

@NoToDigitalID Might ask for an invoice now to get cash to pay a bill? None of your business banks. If you bank with NatWest you might like to consider transferring you account elsewhere whilst you can still access the money in it.
