  @Brightstar have just tried to call you through Natwest to get help to register my phone but instead someone picked up my call and apparently a private call as well, and I was left hanging with no answer tor several minutes until I gave up. Not a great experience

  @NatWest_Help getting a replacement card appears to be mission impossible with NatWest. Currently having a conversation in the app and the agent replies after one hour! What is your excuse @NatWest? Worst bank ever

  For all the chat about how incumbents are lagging - NatWest is showing how it should be done. Deep Innovation, working with regulators, delivering new services at a scale others can only dream of. Let’s see if that forces some of the laggards to - finally - act.

  @sainsburys I just said they reported no issues! I literally just messaged natwest themselves. I'll shop elsewhere as every other website is processing payments via visa fine apart from yours. Who knew it this hard to order soap powder and bleach?

  Not particularly impressed with my local @NatWest_Help branch today in trying to open a trust fund. “It’s all on the app” - what about actually providing actual customer service? 😩 #natwest

  @carolecadwalla I found a NatWest debit card for Natalie West (thought it was a test card) but took it anyway to a NatWest branch and it turned out she was a real customer!

  Most people know Gilbert Verdian as "the Quant CEO" Founder, CEO, the face of $QNT Fewer people actually know what he was doing before Quant existed. 20+ years in cybersecurity across 3+ governments before he ever touched crypto • Downing St • HM Treasury • Bank of England • Ministry of Justice • US Federal Reserve • NSW Health in Aus And of course there's everything on the private sector side with Vocalink and standards with ISO. That's NOT a typical crypto founder resume. That's someone who spent 2 decades inside the exact institutions Quant's now offering interoperability infrastructure to. And the idea for Overledger didn't come from a whitepaper brainstorm either... It came directly out of his work on ISO TC307, the international blockchain standards committee, back in 2016. He kept running into the same problem across every government and bank he worked with None of these systems could talk to each other. Quant was built to solve that specific problem Fast forward to today and that same TC307 work is still active Quant remains one of the core voices shaping ISO standards across 53 countries. The UK picked Quant to build the infrastructure for GBTD, tokenised sterling deposits, with Barclays, HSBC, Lloyds, NatWest, Nationwide and Santander all on board. Overledger sits inside Project Rosalind with the Bank of England and BIS. Inside the ECB's work. Inside the UK's Regulated Liability Network. Inside of UK Finance's GBTD which has received approval by the likes of UK Chancellor & Bank of England. None of that happens by accident. It happens because the guy building it spent two decades inside the rooms where these decisions actually get made.

  Joint borrowers earning £150,000+ can now borrow up to 6.5× their income. NatWest will lend at 6.5× for higher earners, but only if they’re borrowing 75% LTV or less. Pros Higher borrowing power — High income earners can access larger mortgages, which helps in expensive markets like London where property prices are high. More competitive offering — NatWest becomes more attractive to wealthy buyers who might otherwise go to specialist lenders. Useful for joint high earners — Couples earning £150k+ combined can stretch further to buy homes in premium areas. Potentially better rates — The article notes NatWest often has best buy rates, so borrowers may get both a high LTI and a good interest rate. Cons Higher financial risk — Borrowing 6.5x income is a big commitment. If interest rates rise or income drops, repayments can become stressful. Lower LTV allowed — To borrow at 6.5x, you must have at least a 25% deposit. That’s a huge barrier for many people. Only for high earners — This doesn’t help average income buyers struggling with affordability. It widens the gap between who can and can’t buy. Could push prices up — Allowing people to borrow more can fuel higher property prices, especially in already expensive areas. This move is good for wealthy buyers who want bigger loans, but it does nothing for regular earners and may even increase market pressure. It’s a strategic play by NatWest to attract high income clients, not a broad affordability solution.

  Been out to buy a phone packet to allow me to ring NatWest and ask why no transactions are showing on my account today. The guy effectively said 'it's a general problem'. No apology, no suggestion of when it might be resolved, no reassurance that money was safe. British tax-

  @Voyager4IR @NoBullCryptoBen @matttttt187 Chainlink isn't working with central banks yet. They have multiple BIS/Central bank projects, Murex, Natwest Euroclear, Oracle...... That's just ignorant 🤷 ... We all know Central banks are going to be the slowest movers.

  @DebtFreeBy30UK I'm no expert, but it might make sense to pay minimum on your cards, throw everything at Monzo, then MBNA, Barclays then NatWest. Don't bother investing with this much debt. Squeeze some out of your weekly spend, even 30 quid a week will help. Move debt around to 0% early.

  It literally felt so ******* good to have a million pounds I checked my notifications and saw the NatWest transfer and it was euphoric. I genuinely thought it was real I’ve never had such a vivid dream. There was no weird **** happening

  @CoachDebs_spa lol NatWest are ****. If it wasn’t for my DD they would be gone. Most high street banks now are ******* useless. You can’t do anything with your own money without handing over your inside leg measurement
