Perfect for me!

5
Perfect account for me and my husband as we have a joint account! Charges all explained and the team are always at the end of the phone for any queries! Impressive customer service! Reviewed on: 24th December 2015

Seems straightforward when applying online however some discrepnacies with what is required in branch and via received paperwork

4
I opened the Select account online which seemed straightforward and easy to open however after attending the branch for submitting some identification papaers I was not made to ease by asking so many questions including my rental agreement and deed poll change! Surely, British passport would be enough for all. Reviewed on: 24th December 2015

NatWest Current

I recently had to change my home address and thought I'd need all sort of bills etc but I was able to do it all online with no problems at all. I had to enter a lot of security details but was able to confirm everything in much less than five minutes! My monthly statement arrived at the new address a few weeks afterwards too so clearly all went well! Reviewed on: 24th December 2015

Very easy to use- recommended!

5
This is the easiest account I have used! It is accessible on-line, which makes it even easier to keep an eye on your balance. My only complaint is that your balance may be a little hard to understand as there are 2 columns, one for total balance/ available balance, which makes overspending a real threat. However, any queries are very easy to solve as Natwest has an online live chat function! Reviewed on: 24th December 2015

Good product/service

5
The account suits my needs at present and I personally find it easy to bank with Natwest. THe account was easy to open and didn't take a lot of time. The mobile app is very good for keeping track of my finances and is easy to use. Whenever I call into my local branch the staff are always helpful. Reviewed on: 24th December 2015

Great service

5
After a difficult year, I had to change my account to suit my needs. I visited my local branch of Natwest and was greeted with a friendly face and a sympathetic ear! Nothing was too much trouble and my account was altered accordingly-a great service-as always! Reviewed on: 18th December 2015

Having been with Nat west for a number of years I have been impressed with the consistent service, good access to online and telephone banking and helpful branches. The current account benefits are kept up to date and add value to the experience and cant fault them Reviewed on: 22nd November 2015

Good apps to keep track and text service to keep an eye if account goes under an amount. Could do better with rewards but overall happy Reviewed on: 20th November 2015
