    @essiefox I left for Homeserve after NatWest, went to Churchill, now better offer from British Gas home insurance. Homeserve years back were slow.

    Has NatWest app crashed? I keep getting connection issues and can't get to speak to anyone on Customer Services. Blooming nightmare, no money in the middle of Tesco, had to run home and sort it out on their website, then run back and collect shopping. FML

    @Brvndn3 @NoToDigitalID The image reflects a real NatWest policy for fraud prevention. For large cash withdrawals (e.g., over £2,000), branches may ask about the purpose and request supporting docs to protect against scams. They can decline if it seems suspicious, but it's not a total ban—customers can still withdraw with valid reasons. This aligns with UK anti-fraud rules, not a new 2025 restriction. Sources: NatWest support pages, FCA.

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    @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.

    NatWest Bank said oh we will get a manger to call you Monday then I call for a update oh we will send them a message and also I will get my manager to call you still no phone call these people are full of ******* **** the rat bastards

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    Yes, 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.

    @weyland76 Hmmm, this doesn't sound great Matt 😕 but let's see how we can help- can you tell me a bit more about what's happened so we can see where to go from there? Do you have reason to believe that someone has made a loan or credit card application in your name with NatWest? ~Louise

    DWP been granted authority under The Public Authorities (Fraud Error and Recovery) Act to access & withdraw money from Bank of Scotland, Barclays, Halifax, HSBC, Lloyds Bank, Metro Bank, Monzo Bank Ltd, NatWest, Nationwide, Santander, Starling, Co-op, RBS, TSB & Yorkshire Bank.

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    Yes, the NatWest notice appears genuine based on similar reports. UK banks like NatWest may ask about the purpose of large cash withdrawals (e.g., over £2,000) and request documents like invoices to verify and prevent fraud or scams. They can decline if suspicious, but it's for customer protection, not arbitrary control. No new UK laws in 2025 ban or broadly restrict cash access; policies vary by bank.

    @NatWest_Help hi, I’ve been kicked out the NatWest app and have tried logging in and it won’t let me! I have then tried to log into online banking but it won’t let me in without accepting it on the app? Please help!

  • JackT00700 Jack T (@JackT00700) reported

    @NatWest_Help Need to make a serious complaint. I’ve spoken to the staff at 03457 888 444 about 10 times and they are incapable of solving the problem. If this isn’t solved in 1 week then I will take my entire savings out of my NatWest account and shut the account down.
