  @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.

  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 🤬

  @NatWest_Help @TheFCA @financialombuds for the record, I have been lied to by NatWest. I was promised my case would be referred to a specialist team within 24-48 hours, and now been told they aren't going to help me because they are still within 8 weeks of the complaint (made 7.5 weeks ago)

  @Wayne_adams83 There was talk of the banks working together in ONE building. Ie Barclays on Mondays, NatWest on Wednesdays and so on. Haven’t heard anything about it since though !

  @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.

  My NatWest account wanted me to enter a 6-digit code just now. It would help if they sent me the code to enter. I had to ask for a resend.

  @K_Niemietz there's a lot of space between the skyscrapers so they get to speak for themselves. the problem in the city at the moment is that they've all been clustered together. it used to look way more impressive when you just had the Gherkin, Natwest buildiing and LSE building

  @Morrisons idk why but you had an issue with NatWest card online for days, today my order was cancelled because somehow you have an issue with the TSB card which was accepted when placing the order. Awesome. Might have to be the first and last time I shop Morrisons home delivery.

  The NatWest Final? The next Sunday Reader of The Hindu actually had an article mocking it "while we were sleeping, did India actually win the WC?" And went on to complain that India conceded 325 so they were a **** team anyway! Celebration? What for? That's an Aussie birthright

  @FFS_WhatNow @zaphod799 I’m reminded of when NatWest’s computer went south over a weekend. They’d fired the old sysadmins who knew the ancient system for Indians who lied about knowing the arcane programming language. NW had to hire sysadmins as consultants to fix it.

  @JustEatUK @CUSTOMERRE58657 I have raised a chargeback with NatWest. Awful I’ve had to go to these lengths.
