How can I get official statements from NatWest?

If you’re presented with statements printed on one side of the paper only, you know for certain they’ve been printed off the internet. Not many people have home printers capable of double sided printing.

Ah, but i print stuff in work and it defaults to double sided printing. Probably depends on the bank but the downloadable version of at least some include all the usual stuff from posted statements.

And everyone has a printer capable of two sided printing. I’ll grant you that it does take a bit of thought to work out the correct way to orient the paper when printing on the second side (I put an X on the top left).

Yes, if you print one page at a time and put the printed sheet back in the printer, to print the reverse side, but it’s a right faff.

To be honest the number of people I know with a printer of any sort is far lower than it was 20 years ago.

I know. Even in work our printing dropped from £50k to a few hundred. Turns out that we didn’t really need to print all those pages

Posted statements have a lot of information printed on the back, such as contact details, adverts for mobile banking,

Which is all on your digital statement as well, double sided printing yes often true, but the statements are effectively the same

Why are you saying we? I thought you were a Rusky?

Because I’m British?

@Oberoth

unless you count flying over it

Little England is good enough when it means you don’t crash into other planes? If you were super principled you’d go east, but I get that you’re not.

my non-Brexit Passport

My passport says “European Union” on it still. I don’t think it matters so much in 2025, functionally Britain hasn’t collapsed. I’ve never really notice we’ve left the EU, nothing has changed.
