Review of the NatWest, Select Account:

Natwest - A reliable bank and product

5
I find natwest to be very reliable and have a good selection of products, some of which are the best on the market in my opinion. The select account is standard to most other banks. What stands out to me is Natwests customer support which has provided me with prompt support whenever I had any queries. I think that they support their customers well and are a bank I feel I can trust. The select account is easily accessed through the app which is easy to use and has a plethora of features. I find it easy to look through my transactions, get support, pay friends, and move money through the app. Reviewed on: 28th February 2025

Wouldn't recommend

They are happy to take charges when you have no money. Take you into an unarranged overdraft and then charge you again for them doing that (not till next month mind so you've forgotten and it happens again) not very helpful customer services. Have found them to be quite snooty and short with a lack of understanding of the pressure the general public are under. Claim to be willing to help people in financial difficulty but in reality this is no the case. The banks version of greenwashing. Reviewed on: 10th March 2023

Not much to complain about

4
Having banked with NatWest for years my only real complaint is the biometric security (that the app uses for payments above a certain amount) which I have found to be very unreliable. The app works fine otherwise. Reviewed on: 9th March 2023

Very Good

We had to close our Lloyds account and the Select account was easy switch Reviewed on: 9th March 2023

Great service

I've been a customer with Natwest since I was a child and the service I get is second to none. When I visit the branch, the staff are welcoming and helpful, never a lengthy queue, and any queries or transactions have always been dealt with promptly and efficiently. They have an user friendly app with lots of features that I'd be lost without. I'd never switch, they're the best. Reviewed on: 9th March 2023
