Cora is a soulless bot. My father has had an account with NatWest before it was NatWest. He is now 92, with mobility problems, and our nearest branch is 10-20 miles away. He... Read more Reviewed on: 8th April 2025

Review of the NatWest Group - Cora, Digital Assistant:

The Cora system is poor in every respect .

The Cora system is poor in every respect . Nat west clearly don’t value their customers inflicting this faceless , useless and cumbersome system on customers Reviewed on: 5th October 2024

It's not actually a digital assistant.

It's not actually a digital assistant. It can answer very specific questions and that's it. It's basically a search function for common questions misrepresented as a chat bot. It adds little to no value to the customer experience. I would Google any questions before using it and then find a way to speak to a human from there. Needs massive improvements.

They have all been good if I was unsure of a question or a transaction. have been a very reassuring if a scam was involved and reacted very quickly. Leaving you feeling very confident. They have also given guidance on scam related problems.. customer service has always been very good and easy to get hold of. have used Cora digital assistance in the past and have been very happy Reviewed on: 22nd February 2024

I would rather stick pins in my eyes than speak to Cora

1
Replies being artificially slowed to feel more human like is quite literally the worst bit of UX design I have ever, ever, ever experienced. An already frustrating experience is now made utterly unusable. All I wanted was a final statement after I thankfully used the current account switching service and changed current accounts to First Direct. Having been promised a copy of my final statement, nothing ever arrived. And now it's impossible to actually speak to someone who can actually get one for me. Great work Natwest! Reviewed on: 2nd February 2024

A WASTE OF PIXELS

1
ABSOLUTELY TOTALLY USELESS, AND A REASON TO QUIT NATWEST AFTER 50 YEARS. WANTED TO KNOW ABOUT ACCESSING OLD STATEMENTS. TOOK ME ROUND THE HOUSES FOR AGES, THEN REFERRED TO AN ASSISTANT, THEN SHUT DOWN, DID THAT TWICE. NO BRANCH NEAR US, EXCEPT A MOBILE ONE SOMETIMES, AND NO ACCESS TO A HUMAN. ONLY RECOURSE IS SNAIL-MAIL. Reviewed on: 1st February 2024
