[p2kin]

Has anyone paid via Natwest DEBIT card & if yes what was experience.

There is a concern raise in one of the post about Natwest DEBIT card requires a pin for online transactions. So just want to know has anyone been successful with payment?

I am not sure about PIN but I am a NATWEST customer and I always have problem with online transaction over £100. Its better to phone NATWEST and advise in advance about the transaction else transaction is more likely to be refused

This is not an online transaction but a phone transaction (the same way you order a pizza using a card over the phone). The HO don't need the online password to process the payment.

It is always advisable to inform the card company / bank when unusual payments are done.

Hi I used my Natwest Debit card for £2600 last month to pay for ILR and had no issues.

ILR is different because you are there at the PEO and pay it there and then using your card.

Now, can someone who " actually " used NATWEST Debit Card to pay for naturalisation application update us with did they do about the online transaction further pin you normally asked for.

Please no " I think or my opinion...." we need true experience.

Used Natwest debit card for Naturalisation application this month.
The payment went through fine, it took 2 days to clear after initial processing.

I think i received automated call for security however i missed that call and was worried but i checked my online account and there was a payment pending.

I went to Natwest branch to see if i could leave a note on my account before sending the application. Lady at the branch told me that it should go through fine and that they don't have system to leave notes. If anything they may give me a call to verify the payment.

My advice is to use cheque instead if you want to be 100% sure as payment could declined due to security reasons. It may go through if you had similar amount of payments in the past on debit card.

Hope it helps.

Thanks krrishone, was it just you with application or any dependents?

Just out of curiosity, so when it was showing pending payment, did you have to do anything special to make it clear?

Problem with cheque/Banker's draft is it take far more time to clear than card.

I wonder why don't they have system to paying in advance before making application or online payment they started for some visa/ILR categories for PEO appointments. It would be easier to just quote reference no. on the application form of online payment. Gives peace of mind to applicant & guarantee to UKBA too.. Just don't understand why don't they have it for citizenship applications too.. UKBA mystery..

It was just my application (Adult)

In terms of payments, "Available balance" was less than actual balance so i rang Natwest and they said payment has been approved and is pending, will go through within new few days.

Thanks krrishone!! Very valuable information for others!

Any more cases of Natwest DEBIT card payments please?

I submitted my application last week and provided Natwest Debit card details on payment details form. I'm waiting for UKBA to process the funds.

In the meantime, I called Natwest about the expected payment and they told me that there is no facility for them to suspend fraud detection on my card and so they can't do anything. They said if there is an issue during processing of the payment, I should give them a call.

I'll know from online banking when they deduct it as available balance will drop.
