“I banked with natwest for over 14 years
I DO NOT RECOMMEND NATWEST as they will just close your account with all my money in and now I have no access to my own money
I'm left with nothing all weekend and no family to help out 4 KIDS TO LOOKAFTER
THANKS AGAIN NATWEST I want my money from my account
I am taking this to court”
“I witnessed sheer arrogance and aggressive rudeness from one of the female staff members towards a gentleman last week. He was trying to sort out a problem and from her tone and attitude it was clear she thought he was the problem. She told him that her colleague had already gone 'above and beyond ' to help him and he politely pointed out that he would have no way of knowing what was Nat west policy in terms of going above and beyond. The interchange carried on for a good 10 minutes and while I would rather not have been waiting in the queue I was more worried about the crass and unprofessional treatment of another customer.”
“Years of mistreatment and poor service, amazingly they've managed to get worse. So bad that after putting up with the pain I'm moving banks (35 years with NatWest not one positive memory of dealing with them)”
“Hi I have called the costumer service to renew my card
And I give them my address and I receive all litter in it I have been living in this address for more than one year and I have been waiting for more than 45 minute
And every one of the costumer services transfer me for another one”
“Went to the branch today. Asked to wait just to transfer money to other account. Waited for 30 mins so I approached a staff for an update, asked me to open my app while standing in the corridor and so I asked if we can sit down to one side rather than standing in the middle of the corridor but at the end she can’t help me and asked to wait for my turn to be called. So I have to continue waiting”
“Worst in branch customer service I have had. Lack of care, interest, kindness. It takes nothing to be a little kind and caring.
Nat West is not an online bank and has many branches but I never want to go to a Nat West brand again.”
“No local branch phone number, they do not take appointments.
Online Nat West bereavement phone service will cause more deaths due to fatigue waiting for a Moron to answer who does not know anything and can do nothing.
The 1 star rating is way to high.
Below Zero confidence in Nat West now and will be closing down accounts.”

“THE MOST STUPIDEST BANK AND EVIL BANK IN THE WORLD.AVOID AT ALL COST..BOYCOT NATWEST AND RBS ..PEOPLE ARE UNFRIENDLY AND EVIL..ITS A CORUPT BANK AND I WILL TAKE MY MONEY ELSE WHERE..VERY EVIL BANK STAY AWAYY”
“Long queue and only 1 teller. Had to wait ages to be served. Will be considering changing banks soon as it appears that things are not going to change.”
“After a human error at a local branch I called the business banking telephone number to try to correct the issue, I was told that the branch would call within 30 mins and 3 hours, in the end I went to the branch a 25 mile round trip. Okay so the branch made an error but the point is that the staff somewhere in Merseyside i believe, were so rude, obstructive and all I could hear was "huffing" on the line. When this was commented on the obnoxious woman said I'm ending this conversation and "click!".
A great way to treat a customer of over 30 years!”
“Lee TREAGUS at the Hereford branch is the biggest bullshitter of all time. The LIES to get me to open an account.
1. WE Will help you transfer your account , money and direct debits to us
LIES LIES LIES !!!
2. WE Will close your account for you with your old bank. You need not do anything and it will cost nothing. >>> More LIES LIES LIES !
3. WE will reward you with £150 for opening with us. >>> EVEN MORE LIES LIES LIES. The guy must be an ex politician.
DO NOT BE TAKEN IN BY THIS IDIOTS FAKE SALES PATTER. ONCE he has you sign an Account he will tell you to peace off and SORRY I CANNOT HELP YOU WITH SOD ALL. HE has had his new customer CPMMISSIONand noe does not five a sod about customers. His title is SPELT WRONG. It say Senior Personal Banker but there is a letter wrong in the word Banker. This sums him up to a T. STAY CLEAR OF NAT WEST . OPEN AN ACCPUNT WITH AN HONEST HELPFUL BANK.”
“NatWest is awful! It is seriously the worst bank I’ve come across to date. I only switched to them in January due to their £150 monetary offer.
So far as I’ve spoken to telephone banking I’ve been in tears twice due to not being able to pay a bill due to their stupid £500 daily limit. I have asked for them to remove the restrictions as I am the customer and it is my money. They told me to go to the bank as I didn’t have 3rd tier security on my account which you get when you log on with a card reader !
So why didn’t you send me a card reader when I opened the account. I got no answer and now wait for it same problem ! It’s 3 weeks on and it’s still not arrived!
Customer service is so poor it’s shocking. You end up in a passive aggressive conversation within a telephone handler saying she will hang up the phone on you. Seriously NatWest need to insure they train people more effectively because I don’t think they know what they are doing. In my 2 separate conversations with NatWest I’ll only say I spoke to one manager who I’ve been happy with as he empathised with my issue instead of the typical your fault sort it.
Also do not switch! It turns out they only pay the incentive in April and my assumption is that this is to ensure their figures are through to show their customer count. I applaud them for the rouse as I can’t remeber if that was in the terms I read. I will be leaving NatWest for another bank this time
I’ll ensure I read reviews and I think NatWest should ask other banks how they can improve as this will not keep customers”
“Bad service. lost files. Rudeness. Unhelpful. And downright aggressiveness.. I was treated badly by a gareth in complaints its no use complaining about the bad service they just fob you off and refuse to help.. they took all my sisters benefit money in bank charges.. she has mental health issues..”
