Review of the NatWest, Select Account:

NatWest Current

5
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

Banking with Natwest for over 10 years.

4
Banking with Natwest for over 10 years. Proven to be reliable - with some helpful advise. They have adapted the App so has similar functionality to Monzo and feels like a new bank again. Cash ISA / Stocks and Share Isa seem behind other platform but overall happy with them. Reviewed on: 15th March 2024

Excellent mobile banking app

5
Mobile banking app is really easy to use. I can see the balance of all my accounts in one place and it is very easy to transfer funds between them. It is also very simple to manage standing orders and direct debits from the app. The app also makes cheque deposits and payment transfers very simple with effective use of face recognition. The ease of use and convenience of the app enables me to have full control of my bank accounts. Reviewed on: 15th March 2024

Quick and easy to switch banks, offer received swiftly, and it has a great app to use. The account comes with the option for a savings account which has a competitive interest rate of 6 percent up to £5000, but you can only put in £150 a month unfortunately! Reviewed on: 14th March 2024

The account is easy enough to use. Wish it paid interest on credit balances though. However the regular saver is decent and the app works most of the time Reviewed on: 15th February 2024

4
The NatWest Select Account has a major flaw in my opinion and that is charging for failed payments due to insufficient funds. I actively make a choice to keep my funds low in my debit account so that losing my card has a reduced risk. I transfer money into my spending account prior to purchases, something someone who were to steal my card could not do. I believe that Natwest penalising people for adopting thia security measure to be backward and ridiculous. Reviewed on: 27th January 2024
