  • Just had NatWest complaints team on the phone, confirmed my £125 will definately be coming to me before 27th April and an additional £50 compensation due to the inconvenience caused! Call that a result! :-)

    I just had a call from the complaints team too. They have also told me the date of 27 April for payment of the switching bonus.

    I had asked for compensation in my complaint and the lady I dealt with started out by offering me a "gift", asking if I drank wine or would like some high street/Amazon vouchers - she offered £20. I asked for cash instead (I wouldn't have minded vouchers as such as I would use them but I am going away on holiday in a few days so won't be in to receive them) which she said was OK and I also said that I'd seen other customers on internet forums getting more than that. She said all customers' circumstances are different so they didn't offer a flat amount, but did up it to £30 so I am expecting that to arrive in my account soon. Result, assuming that and the bonus do turn up :-)

    Anyone got a call back from NatWest after filling in their online form. Or even got an email acknowledging that NW have received the form?

    Yes - see above. Logged complaint online at about 1.30pm yesterday, took a screenshot of it too. The e-mail logging it turned up at 6.30pm last night and they called me at 11.00am today. I think they have a bit of a backlog...

    Yes done the form yesterday morning, received an automated email response, and just got a call from a kind lady now in regards to it being a 'techinical fault' and that it will be paid by the 27th April.

    Although no mention of a compensation, which I asked for on the form..... nevermind.

    Didn't want to sound too cheeky on the phone as my account balance is 0p lol

    Must depend on who calls you. Just had the call. Said money will be in by 27th April but she can push to have it paid earlier to me if I want and if Im happy with that. I said I am happy to wait till 27th April and mentioned about compensation and she said as its a switch bonus they do not have to pay compensation but she said she can put it through as a complaint if I want. So I said yes and she will get back to me later this afternoon.
