    This glitch has gone from not being reported, to reported. It was was meant to take 24 hours to fix, but that was 48 hours ago. Then we've been told the problem will be resolved by monday, but within a few hours that has changed to wednesday. Who wants to bet it won't be resolved this time next week?

    When the MF global crisis happened, no one was told the company was insolvent, customers were simply informed they had no money in their accounts.

    I know it speculation but this glitch could be buying Natwest time in order to receive a government or BoE bailout.

    These kinds of comments are speculation and scare-mongering. I'm sure it's not your intention and you're just annoyed/worried but saying things like this with no kind of solid evidence to back it up is just going to make people freak out unnecessarily. Even if that does turn out to be true, there's nothing that can be done to stop it so there's no point saying it in the first place.

    So I took a trip to the High Street and the branch was open (Natwest). There they were telling people that they could only be given £50 and that they are open Saturday and Sunday and to come back if they need more.

    Fearing the worst, I explained I had deposited £250 in yesterday morning (09.02 precisely according to the receipt that I had in my hand) and it transpires that it hadn't even entered the system yet. My deposit slip was sat on an employees desk, so they tore it up and gave my money back!

    I have just checked my bank online and my tax credits have gone is now and the money i borrowed from natwest in branch has been taken out so thats balanced now, thankfully so I hope it is only a matter of hours before the rest are done (or a day or 2 at most).
