Review of the NatWest, Black Account:

Generally a good service

A great service in terms of rewards, insurances and withdrawing money abroad. Saves us money. Dragon pass element totally useless and ads stress to holidays doesn't add value. Reviewed on: 8th August 2023

If there is -1000% for a bank customer service proba...

If there is -1000% for a bank customer service probably this bank will get the score. One of the worst experiences that I ever had dealing with a bank. They are just a joke. "The bank would not give you a reason to cancel my account", this was repeated in the call over 6 to 7 times. I have been with the bank since 2010 and this is the way they treat a loyal customer. I have been transferred 4 times in a call to find the correct department. Just a joke of a bank where the customer support team is abysmal. Why do you operate as a bank when you are closing our accounts without any valid reason? I have money in your bank. Very disappointed and will never come to this bank. Thank god did not have a credit card with them, just imagine how they will operate when they give out credit to people. Joke of a bank that does not have any value on real customers. I think the Bank of England has to look into this joke of a bank that behaves like this to its customers. Very frustrated with this customer service which made me write this bloody essay on how bad this bank is. Very very disappointed and frustrated with Northwest Bank. God save you from disaster and hope they learn the lesson. I have been told now that I have to wait for 60 days to get my money transferred to another account. There is no one to respond to my calls at Natwest. Reviewed on: 22nd February 2024

Black account is great, but a little pricey.

Black account is great, but a little pricey. I was lucky enough to get a £10/m discount, plus earn cash back on spends and bills, so really it mostly pays for itself. Reviewed on: 21st February 2024

Poor returns from savings, excessive monthly charges.

Not all it says

Be careful as a lot of the so called benifits are not as expected. A hailstorm breaking a windscreen has left me £1000's out of pocket as it was not classed as a breakdown. Don't take offers at face value Reviewed on: 29th August 2023

Service level appalling

They believe 1 phone call a year is great service, I made a complaint and have not heard anything from them in over 2 weeks. They are fast becoming a laughing stock. Reviewed on: 2nd August 2023
