schestowitz"By using bad symbols you actually strengthen the meaning and bad practices which are quite real. You are making this thing obvious and 'normal'. Sorry, but I won't agree to that. However, it's your choice to post whatever you want and I am not going to impose anything on you." https://joindiaspora.com/posts/2024611Oct 19 08:40

schestowitzRob: Hi, you're chatting with Rob. May I take your name please?Oct 19 09:50
schestowitzdr. schestowitz: Hi, I have already spent an hour in vain trying to enter my account after it was locked after someone like a scammer had apparently tried to enter it (because I didn't enter incorrect details before it was blocked). I was advised to reregister, it didn't fix a thing. In fact, I have been locked out for a week now,. I think about just quitting NatWest at this stage. I am very disapppointed.Oct 19 09:50
schestowitzRob: Ok, I'm sorry for the inconvenience Dr. Schestowitz, if I could please take your customer number so I can check it please.Oct 19 09:50
schestowitzdr. schestowitz: xxxxxxx is customer numberOct 19 09:50
schestowitzRob: Thank you, I'll just be a moment.Oct 19 09:50
schestowitzdr. schestowitz: I have already wasted about 3 hours in total just trying to get back into itOct 19 09:50
schestowitzdr. schestowitz: I understand you locked it cause someone may have tried cracking it, but given that I did all that I did, please DO let me in already. I gave all my details, inc. debit card etc.Oct 19 09:50
schestowitzRob: Ok, I've just had a look I can see the attempts you've had to log in previously and today. Unfortunately at this stage I don't have a way of unlocking the service. It does require re-registration either through the online service or an activation code which has been sent to you today.Oct 19 09:50
schestowitzdr. schestowitz: I re-registered 4 times or soOct 19 09:50
schestowitzdr. schestowitz: It then tells me an activation code is being sentOct 19 09:50
schestowitzdr. schestowitz: can I speak to a superior please? I am alrady late for workOct 19 09:50
schestowitzRob: I apologise for the inconvenience, however in the web chat service I can't refer you on to a supervisor. You can call the online helpdesk on 08456050789 or follow the complaints process online.Oct 19 09:50
schestowitzdr. schestowitz: sighOct 19 09:50
schestowitzdr. schestowitz: maybe I'll just quit the bank, this has been a major nuisanceOct 19 09:50
schestowitzdr. schestowitz: surely someone can remove the lock if I provide all the details they want. It doesn't work onlineOct 19 09:50
schestowitzRob: I am sorry Dr. Schestowitz, I appreciate you have tried to re-register but I would encourage you to try again as something you have entered on the form hasn't matched. I also recommend filling out the mandatory fields.Oct 19 09:50
schestowitzdr. schestowitz: Thanks, I will try againOct 19 09:50
schestowitzRob: Ok, is there anything else I can help with?Oct 19 09:50
schestowitzdr. schestowitz: This worked now, thank you RobOct 19 09:50
schestowitzdr. schestowitz: And thanks for checking it upOct 19 09:50
schestowitzRob: No problem, glad I could help.Oct 19 09:50
