Lost our documents and very un-reliable, no replies.

1
Absolutely terrible service from the start. In the process of opening a business account they lost our documents and did not reply to us at all until I had to visit the branch to confront them about it. After several phone calls, 3 weeks and a number of attempts we were told copies of our passports were lost... Stay clear. Reviewed on: 10th February 2023

Awful Customer service

1
Terrible to try to speak to. Do not respond to emails. Phone system is a joke. Staff are rude and uninterested. Reviewed on: 9th February 2023

Very rude and controlling

1
The worst for business banking, they won't let you do as you please with your money and will move it around without your authorisation and the business managers are extremely rude and unhelpful Reviewed on: 8th February 2023

Terrible service when scammed

1
NatWest has been awful when’s scam took place that was obviously an inside share of data problem. Not accountability, hours waiting and being transferred to the wrong people, stress like we’ve never known, lost 21k. Fake NatWest website, didn’t respond to money being transferred quickly to get it back, waiting, slow, service people were useful. Bank relationship managers for business and personal were useful and had no autonomy to do anything. Over £10m gone through act and awful service Reviewed on: 8th February 2023

NatWest Business Profile Platform lets them down

1
Been with NatWest business for 2 decades, day to day basic stuff is fine. we are a not for profit, no debt, nothing complicated. The thing that I hate so much, and is cause of so much frustration is their 'Business Profile' system. When they brought it in, they send a letter during lockdown so we didn't get it in time and they suspended our account without warning for 3 days. we lost decent money, had months of sorting out cancelled DDs etc. the issue is, as we are not for profit, Directors come and go over the years. The platform doesn't allow you to update it proactively, it's locked down until they decide the platform doesn't match companies house and then send you (post only) a threatening letter saying if don't update they will suspend your account. This business profile platform is truly awful, and whoever is in charge, shouldn't be in a job. (in case of any bias, i worked proudly for NatWest for 5 years in management, still a shareholder, but this platform shames them. Reviewed on: 19th January 2023
