Natwest Bank

Ever since being 16 years old my number one bank account has been with Natwest. It started of all well with them and it still all remains good to this day. At the point when I turned 18 they gave me a special webcam for free after opening up a student account with them plus they gave me a free five year rail card also! For students this offer still stands so Natwest certainly are giving to their customers!

I have banked with Natwest since I was about 11 (so a good 13 years now) and to be perfectly honest, I think the only reason I've stuck with them is because I have a bad credit rating but they will help me out if I twist their arm as they know my history because I've been with them so long. I originally joined Natwest as they were the only bank that gave out a debit card to young people (so teenagers in other words!) which was a novelty when I was young. I enjoyed paying for things with a solo card just like an adult. As the years went on, my account was upgraded due to me earning more money and I was given a cheque book. this was an upgrade to the Advantage ...  Read the complete review

I chose NatWest for my student account as they had a branch on my university campus and because of the freebies they offered. In order to receive these freebies (such as a railcard worth £120, a free memory stick and a number of online discounts) I had to set up the account online. I also had to use online banking and not have paper bank statements.

Last year I opened a student bank account with them because if you do so you can get a free rail card for the next 5 years! That's saving something like 120 pounds!!! That alone is 100% worth going with them. The added reasons were that they are very well known and easily accessible in pretty much everywhere in England. As I applied very late for Uni I was concerned about my loan taking so long or a something going wrong with there not being enough time to check up to confirm I was actually at Uni. But to my relief everything was fine. This was until my rail card - which is the reason I joined - did not turn up. It took me call after call to get ...  Read the complete review

I have been a customer of NatWest since I was 13 - so more than half my life - and up until recently have never had any major problems with them, but recently they've been starting to irk me just a little in a way that is making me, one of the most apathetic people around, seriously considering switching banks. Positives ________ With the economic downturn and banking crisis, NatWest are still a well established and reputable bank with whom you can feel mostly safe and secure saving your money with. They offer a wide range of different accounts and investment solutions that to suit your needs - as they claim themselves they are ...  Read the complete review
