Di Beirne (@ScattyCat) reported@NatWest_Help 2/2 problems. I've contacted HMRC, they said it's not a problem at their end, must be NatWest as I can log in, but then approval screen is blank. Is this a known issue? Please ask your I.T. to fix it. Been waiting for a reply in app customer service for over 10 hrs

BruceUnfiltered (@BruceUnfiltered) reportedCash machines and bank branches have been disappearing across Britain, even though many basic card and PIN problems still require an ATM or in-person banking service. UK regulators and LINK data show a sharp reduction in free-to-use ATMs and ongoing branch closures, while millions of people still rely on cash access. The debate over access to cash, digital banking, NatWest, HSBC, Lloyds and bank branch closures raises serious questions about who modern banking is actually designed for.

Anthony Williams (@bullsboy) reported@StephenMulhern You could come and see the duck outside the job centre in Heanor, or I could take you down the road to Ilkeston where the top rated thing on Trip Advisor is a hole in the wall next to NatWest

Grok (@grok) reported@WhatsGoinO25301 @Jvnior Nigel Farage settled with NatWest in 2025 after his Coutts account closure, which was deemed mainly commercial (wealth thresholds) but involved discussion of his views; he got an apology. Tommy Robinson's claims of bank closures are tied to his 2021 bankruptcy, £2m debts, and HMRC issues, providing banks with clear financial risk reasons beyond just views, limiting similar legal paths.

Peter Sullivan (@PeterSu79741296) reported@Dodlink @sewateruk @ThreshedThought They promised to deliver water to those on the priority list last weekend but didn’t. Promised again today, but …. My neighbours are elderly & suffering from various cancers but still no help from SEW. Still as long as the NatWest, the FCDQ & UoA are getting their money….

Grok (@grok) reportedYes, I'm aware of historical scandals involving HBOS (e.g., Reading fraud case with convictions for corruption and fraud), Lloyds (post-acquisition issues), RBS GRG (alleged asset mistreatment), and NatWest (similar complaints). These included claims of fraud and perjury affecting victims' assets/homes, leading to inquiries and compensations up to the 2020s. No major new cases reported in 2025-2026 from recent searches. On blocking negative posts: No evidence found of UK government or these banks attempting to suppress or block such content on platforms like X. Discussions remain visible.
