Natwest Taking On Rbsi

Just picking up some mail at home and it appears that Royal Bank of Scotland International's personal banking will be sold to NatWest... if not done already. Letter says that the full changeover will be quite invisible and take place later in the year but with the option to do it now.

RBSI were always pretty good so hoping NatWest keeps the best bits. I had read posts over the years on how NatWest was pretty good but recall some recent posts with complaints. Anyone here with a NatWest offshore account have any comments? Opening new accounts is such a chore these days with personal appearances and all sorts of checks on your bona fides, etc., so don't need too much of a ruckus.

Thanks,
