How do you store your Banking passwords?
 
My Banking passwords are partially written down on paper so only I can figure them out assuming I can remember and I've just bought a laminator to make them more durable.

But I'm still uneasy about having them down on paper, i use Bitwarden password manager for every normal website but I can't bring myself to do the same with Banking.

What do you guys do or suggest?

Why not ? I do, and have no worries about it.
You cant do anything without a bloody code being sent to your phone these days anyway.

I thought about doing that but I would have to plug it into a PC which could give them instantly away if the PC happened to be compromised, if I did that only partial parts would be stored.

Well consider I only need to remember one bank code to use an ATM it's not an issue. Otherwise why not use your PC to do your banking on other occasions.

Mine are written down but as the login asks for customer number followed by random characters from both the password and pin followed by authentication by text. (Natwest) Doing this automatically is not really possible.

You must have very few passwords and not very good ones.

Mine are all like sjfh5737&£djgng apart from my banking and I never reuse a password.

Same here with NatWest which is why I only partially write them down.

That's very disingenuous SnoopZ, he only said he kept his banking password in his head (as do I) not all of them. For the rest I use LastPass as you used to do.

Bitwarden for everything. Biometrics are great but they don't help you remember your passwords.

Nordpass

I use Bitwarden too, but for all passwords, hard to see a downside. Just make sure the Bitwarden password is a good one!
