  @merseyrail I’m trying to get a refund for a journey I took over two weeks ago. The NatWest Payout system is having problems but no one has responded to the email I sent a week ago.

  @NatWest_Help Ok but doesn’t really help me. I needed cash to pay the barber! 💈 wasted trip. It’s the lack of communication from NatWest that’s even more annoying. An hour on the phone and even the customer care guy, doing his best and really good guy, couldn’t tell me what was up

  @Jimomthytimbers @disclosetv Intimidation rose in 2024 50% mostly online, awful & addressed with new laws. No evidence of systemic blackmail to your door. Farage got NatWest apology & settlement, &Truss resigned after market reaction. BoE stabilized by buying bonds, not a coup. City influential but regulated

  @financialombuds I'm confused Why are investigators keep missing main point? Asking NatWest for card reader won't help because the app requests face recognition to update details in the app Please tell where will reader card fit in?

  @NatWest_Help @NatWestGroup anyone wanting any currency then don’t order from NatWest. Purchased currency 1st December, they didn’t deliver in time and I’m still awaiting refund. Theft at its best. Customer services are useless.Personal and business accounts to be moved shortly.

  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.

  @NatWest_Help Hi - been trying to make a payment to HMRC via their app. In app, it directs to NatWest app for payment approval. For last few days, can log in to NatWest app when directed, but page to approve payment is just blank. I've used this way to pay in the past with no 1/2

  @NatWest_Help NatWest couldn’t help their customers if they tried !! I left NatWest 19 years ago, seen an offer to bring my business back last month, reopened 3 accounts and guess what, same **** service I left with. Well unlucky… that’s a guaranteed half million you won’t get on your books!

  @GoodwinMJ Matt the closure of bank branches in Denton, Manchester—similar to trends across Tameside and the UK—is primarily driven by a significant, long-term shift toward digital and mobile banking, which has led to a dramatic reduction in branch footfall. Major banks, including NatWest and Lloyds, have closed branches in the area, stating that they must adapt to changing customer habits, as many users now prefer to bank online. It’s down to the public being pushed to use online banking. Not @Keir_Starmer

  @HMRCcustomers Hi - is there a problem making payments on the app with NatWest? Been trying to pay for 3 days but keep getting blank screen on NatWest app after logging in to authorise payment. I do suspect it's a NatWest problem but I know how busy you are atm so maybe it's you
