Trouble in what way?

All my banking problems vanished as soon as I left Natwest. The worst bank ever.

They often do maintenance on the servers, but usually put up a warning that they're doing this when you log on.
Don't know if that may have been the problem.
Always been a good service for me (touch wood).

Try dealing with the gurning simpletons at TalkTalk if you want to experience bad service... :|

Going back a few years I had Talk Talk ring me up trying to sell me a cheap landline for my business...

I said to the "gentleman" on the other end of the phone "what number have you rung me on"

He said "your mobile"

So I replied "do you know what my business is"

"A mobile locksmith"

"I replied "correct and you have rung my business number which is a mobile phone havent you"

"yes but we want to save you money on your business landline"

"I havent got a business landline. I am a mobile locksmith"

"yes but we can offer you a landline a lot less than BT or any other supplier for your business"

"my business is a mobile locksmith what use is a business landline to someone who spends his working day in a van on the road dealing with his customers"

At this point the "gentleman" started getting bolshie and argumentative on the other end of the phone ...

I said "look here sunshine you have rung a mobile locksmith whilst he is in his van trying to sell him something he neither needs nor wants and now you are arguing with him about it... I think you are in the wrong job"

"yes but we can offer you a cheaper landline for your business" he said in a loud rant. At this point I started laughing and he got really upset and started shouting down the phone

"I AM OFFERING YOU A CHEAPER ALTERNATIVE TO BT OR ANY OTHER SUPPLIER. WHY DON'T YOU LISTEN TO ME ..... A C H E A P E R A L T E R N A T I V E ... CHEAPER I TELL YOU"

Laughing I said "What bloody use is a landline to me when I am driving down the A65 you deaf stupid plank ... I drive a van ... thats my office ... I use a mobile phone as my business line ... now jog on and annoy someone else"

at that he started again and I hung up....

Funnily enough I never got troubled by Talk Talk again

Really surprised with the negativity around NatWest. I bank with them and couldn’t be happier. Fantastic service and far better than my previous experience with Santander and HSBC
