  Going around in circles, neither @NatWest_Help nor @pandocruises are helping! Natwest have said P&O can't take the money and it bounces back and P&O say they don't have an issue with the payments system. 🙈 Do you want the money or not???

  @org_scp @HHelenakhl @NatWest_Help In conversation with someone in NatWest HO early 2021 after the loss of my mother, re misinformation about a local branch & services I was told that all branches would close & everyone at HO was aware hence service reductions. Someone on twitter called me a liar.

  @NatWest_Help @LifeOnSkaro Verse 2 The bankers tried, but not very hard, the customer lost their mind not their card. When venting on X, they shared their dismay, but Natwest made fun; now what do you say? 🤨

  @NatWest_Help Can you please advise who I need to contact to stop mail coming to my address that isn’t addressed to me? Potentially previous owners but me returning the mail to the NatWest return address doesn’t seem to be working!

  @ThreshedThought Thanks Mike. The real issue is the 75% foreign ownership, which makes it much harder to influence change. It’s baffling how this model was ever allowed for our key services: 🇦🇺 50% Utilities Trust of Australia 🇬🇧 25% NatWest Pension Trustee Ltd 🇨🇦 25% Desjardins (linked to CDPQ)

  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).

  @NatWest_Help for 18 months we had a QR code for payments attached to our NatWest Business Account + on lots of our printed media. We are a volunteer run Town Carnival. This week QR code became invalid. Cue runaround from Cora + PayIT not wanting to help pushing to other!

  @NatWest_Help hey folks! My sister banks with you still - she’s just found a car that my dad will buy for her. She needs to transfer £7k from her account to him also a NatWest customer. How can she temporarily up her limits?
