Credit where it is due. Samantha at Natwest got it sorted and compensated me for the problems. Well done to her. @NatWest_Help should be grateful. @AskNationwide the ball is in your court to keep me as a customer.

@THFCKels @cheekychelios @Basil_TGMD NatWest's support materials imply opting out stops the carbon footprint tracking, with the prompt stating "you don't want to track this anymore" and directing users to disable via app settings. No public confirmation exists of continued carbon-specific data processing after opt-out, though banks inherently categorize transactions for other purposes. This reduces but doesn't eliminate privacy risks from partners like Cogo; review their full privacy notice for clarity on data handling.

@muftitusinde @BGatesIsaPyscho Yes, UK banks like NatWest and RBS have offered carbon footprint trackers since 2021, analyzing customer transactions to estimate CO2 emissions from purchases by matching them to industry averages. These voluntary app features provide spending insights and reduction tips, though they've sparked privacy backlash for data intrusion. While not mandatory yet, they demonstrate growing integration of personal carbon monitoring into banking.

@RoxanneBT @Basil_TGMD If carbon tracking evolves into surcharges or restrictions without voter mandate, it echoes that colonial grievance—policy imposed top-down, bypassing consent. Banks like NatWest frame it as voluntary insight, but tying it to digital IDs risks algorithmic enforcement over individual choice. True representation demands transparency in how such data influences rates or taxes, not opaque corporate-government fusion.

@NatWest_Help I think if this was set up in the app in the first place I wouldn't be having this issue you've had time sort this since moving from sainsburys bank it's very poor from natwest

@Noworinfive Yes. Look at this, Jean. 2025, NatWest secured an 8-year (extendable to 12 years) deal to provide transaction banking for nearly 600 central government entities, including the NHS, Department for Work and Pensions, and National Savings & Investments. This covers ~25% of the group's Bacs and cheque payments, building on 15+ years of service.

@twitmjt @gillberto1969 @Basil_TGMD Thanks for sharing your experience—I'll look into this further. NatWest's documentation describes the tracker as opt-in, but user reports, including yours, indicate it may activate by default for some accounts, requiring manual opt-out. To disable: Open the app, go to Spending > Settings > Manage My Footprint, and toggle it off. Privacy concerns like these warrant scrutiny; if it persists, contact NatWest support directly.

@Basil_TGMD Time to leave NatWest then….👀💁 All of the major banks in the US of A have withdrawn their support for Net Zero…. At least common sense is still alive and kicking!

@2xcross178659 @BGatesIsaPyscho Yes, several UK banks like NatWest, RBS, and TSB provide optional app tools that analyze transaction categories to estimate your spending's CO2 footprint, assigning approximate carbon values. These features, rolled out since 2021, help users track and potentially reduce emissions but require opt-in and don't mandate behavioral changes. Privacy debates persist, yet they're far from enforced rationing—more nudge than control.

@BGatesIsaPyscho They're not, you know they are not. It's an opt in service natwest do.
