    @santanderuk ... thank you so much 4 locking me out of my business account so clients cannot pay me. Nice one. I now have to wait 5 working days for your shite to allow me to be paid for work I did months ago. You are the exact reason why it is so f***ing hard to be self employed

  • The_Swell_Shark
    Tim B. (@The_Swell_Shark) reported

    @santanderuk Thanks for responding, but I've already used that tool. The issue itself is with capturing the photo of the cheque. No matter what angle, light or background, your app won't complete the process. Awful. Just awful. 👍

    @David90shaw This is already happening if you use mobile banking apps, with the threat of restricted access to said app if you don't comply and upload photo id, thus forcing you into branches that are closing on a daily basis @santanderuk the latest do this.

    @santanderuk It's been four hours since your chat not said they were passing me to a customer service rep to join the chat....still nothing

    @santanderuk Issue is why are you not giving away money like your mate @AskNationwide

  • iamedterry
    Edward Terry (@iamedterry) reported

    @santanderuk As a systems and process specialist I can see there’s a deeper issue that needs addressing. And removing telephone support was not a smart move either. Why are you making it so hard to get support? Do you want to lose customers? It wouldn’t surprise me if you are.

    @santanderuk what ridiculous chat service on the mobile phone app! I used the chat service yesterday afternoon.... it was replied to this morning! Completely unacceptable and unprofessional service!

    @santanderuk how does a customer contact you about a stolen card when your phone centres are closed?

  • FifaThing

    Update day 7 @santanderuk have proved they are a joke of a bank and allowed a company @AirFranceUK @airfrance to take money out of my account for a service (flights)not provide any flights or confirmation regarding flights but because its not the banks money they are ok with it

  • jonathoncloud1

    @santanderuk message sent, but not holding out much hope as you have managed to ignore all recent emails ever since you offered compensation following your errors.

  • Gowithbazza1
    Barry (@Gowithbazza1) reported

    .@santanderuk, you're asking me questions. You already know the answers to you know what goes into my account and where it's from WTF. I do not have the mental capacity to deal with this **** hull. you're digging me into. Please STOP!!

    @santanderuk Why doesn't your chat feature work on your website. It has been broken for ages!

    @santanderuk he crap bank company! I've messaged on your app over 22 hours ago and no one from your pathetic company has bothered to reply. Is anyone working today ?

    @5arstudent @santanderuk @santanderukhelp Plus ca change.. Seriously rank service. Don't even think about going into branch to complain. The website lies

  • wideawakebo
    Wideawake (@wideawakebo) reported

    Been waiting 11 days for a replacement card from @santanderuk , told it must be a problem with @RoyalMail RM advised it could be another 7 days as that's normal for 2nd class, so just the 18 days, no big deal. Remember when stuff worked in the UK, more or less? #shitshow

  • andy_horner
    Ash 1974🔴🏐 (@andy_horner) reported

    @santanderuk Well I am waiting for a complaint call back that still hasn’t happened and compensation that also hasn’t been addressed. Your service has seriously gone down hill recently. You’ve become an arrogant bank!!

  • UrmstonMeadows
    Urmston Meadows (@UrmstonMeadows) reported

    @santanderuk - we'll put your fees up but don't worry, the service will be even worse

  • iamedterry
    Edward Terry (@iamedterry) reported

    @santanderuk I think you should review that. When they take 8+ hours to respond, then tell you they’re multitasking so might not respond immediately, but expect you to drop everything in your life to respond is a bit unreasonable. My experience = chat support is a waste of time.

  • irmelville
    Ian Melville (@irmelville) reported

    @santanderuk how the hell is someone supposed to get any help.. phone call.. on hold for ages... online chat... passed off to await someone.. for ages... your X help address.. no response... this is appalling

  • MattyHough2
    Matty Hough (@MattyHough2) reported

    @santanderuk Hi @santanderuk — I was advised a case handler would contact me after 8am today, but I still haven’t received any email or contact. I remain stranded abroad without access to funds. Please urgently escalate this and contact me immediately

    @ForeverScept @santanderuk @antanddec It's so sad to see the English language massacred daily on Twitter. Slow down and check your work.

    @santanderuk Not really any help and 5 days was mentioned which is a joke as its not 1950 is it?

  • jonathoncloud1
    Nigel Burger (@jonathoncloud1) reported

    CANT BELIEVE THE INCOMPETENCE OF #SANTANDER BANK @santanderuk MADE A SMALL ERROR, AFTER MANY MONTHS THEY FIX IT AND OFFER COMPENSATION YET 6 MONTH AND MANY REMINDERS LATER THEY FAIL TO PAY THEN IGNORE ME. THIS WILL NOT GO AWAY.

  • andy_horner
    Ash 1974🔴🏐 (@andy_horner) reported

    @santanderuk Well, after authorising an unsanctioned withdrawal, they now cant give me access to my mobile or online banking! Cowboy banking basically. Customer service or security cant do a thing either!!

  • TheParentGame
    Lucy Dorrington (@TheParentGame) reported

    @santanderuk @TSB Why have you blocked access to online banking unless various ID demands and proof of earnings are met? You say it's the law, but I bank with Barclays and NatWest and haven't had to do this? I don't see how it's only necessary for you?

  • wilpappi

    @santanderuk how can a company of your size be so terrible with the way you deal with your customers 🤬

  • velvettwenty
    Velvet Twenty (@velvettwenty) reported

    @santanderuk @bancosantander Absolutely shocking business banking service! A backlog in the back office is NOT an acceptable excuse to block a payment and all online banking. And a simple response “we don’t know how it will take…..”
