    Excellent!  What date did your account switch over to the RBS?

    as part of my switch to natwest there was one DD on the other account, i know it wasn't needed but i left it there. switch complete today and the DD is not showing on the natwest account but had gone from the old account while i could still see that account this morning. is this normal for natwest and may it appear later?

    edit: scrap that. email from natwest states DD's only visible after 1st payment taken. odd.

    Just noticed the same with Ulster - switch finished yesterday but DDs not showing. Gone back over messages and saw same thing "Please note - Direct Debits will only be visible on Online Banking once first payments are made."

    Which is very odd indeed. And completely unreassuring!  All other banks switches I've done show the DDs instantly and most go further and send a list if them in a letter. Ulster give no info at all. Their complete lack of comms on opening the account plus this lack of critical info makes me wonder what they think they're doing!

    ...as long as they are as inefficient at checking accounts across their brands regarding switches then all is good  ;)
  • RBS switch completed on 11th October and £175 hit my account today.

    On to the next one.
  • Don’t get why my NatWest hasn’t paid yet considering my switch completed 26th SEPTEMBER!!!!
