Royal Bank of Scotland’s payments problem


From Bob’s Guide –

“RBS recently experienced a banking glitch meaning that 600,000 delayed banking payments did not show up in customer accounts.

This isn’t the first time RBS has fallen foul of technical problems; it’s actually the fifth time in three years.

  • @KrisScally1: 2 days in a row that money has not went into my account @RBS_Help should give everyone affected a good will gesture #skint
