    @santanderuk your phones are busy and wait time is over 10 minutes - I don’t have the luxury to keep calling you to fix a security issue between you and @DVLAgovuk you need to fix this! I suspect someone’s is defrauding the system and this is a serious security breach! Please act

    @santanderukhelp @santanderuk my husband attempted to transfer some money and his card has been blocked, after spending SEVERAL hours trying get through or speak to someone that can help, we have been unsuccessful. It is coming to a week now and he is unable to make transactions.

  • _Dark_justice_ Sheriff Steele/Dark Meltzer (@_Dark_justice_) reported

    Instead of the @santanderuk "help"line's annoying "sorry to keep you waiting" voice over & over again, how about you answer? Card on hold for some reason & I'm stuck at a motorway services with no way to pay for food or fuel 🤬

  • SallyJericho18 Sally (@SallyJericho18) reported

    So @bancosantander @santanderukhelp @santanderuk I have spent 6 hours hanging on waiting for Toni, Jim, Andrew, Steven Warnock, Caroline, Ryan and Bradley to answer the phone. All of them have promised someone would phone me back or send me an email. Bradley just cut me off. WTF

  • PatrickKeyte Patrick Keyte (@PatrickKeyte) reported from London Colney, England

    @santanderuk I’ve been trying to apply for a loan all day and once I put the OTP in your site breaks, this has happened numerous times. I can’t use another browser because it asks for a landline number which I do not have.

  • keviniddles kevster (@keviniddles) reported

    @the_spad @santanderuk I had a similar experience moving money with @BarclaysUK You can only move a few K with their 'worldclass' app even with multiple levels of auth and signing, yet have to visit a branch - in work hours - and **** about for 1 1/2 hours whilst various staff fail with thier own IT

  • DrewThomsoncfc Drew Thomson (@DrewThomsoncfc) reported

    @santanderuk your customer service is shocking , my mother's bank account was wiped out fraudulently yesterday no notification or text from the bank , she's a pensioner recovering from cancer treatment, awaiting bills to be paid and pension to be paid in yet total disregarded

  • caitlinosheax Caitlín (@caitlinosheax) reported

    @santanderuk @santanderukhelp this account has stolen my information please help.

  • cellcluster Mrs. McBirdface (@cellcluster) reported

    @santanderuk Been on hold 2 hours and 44 minutes and still holding trying to get help with a banking issue. Tell me a reason to stay with Santander. Worst service.

  • megsroberts_ Megan Roberts (@megsroberts_) reported

    So firstly you wrongly lock my entire account for a £3 ‘fraud’ and now payments are bouncing due to the security lock! Literally NEVER bank with @santanderuk I’ve had no access to my money for about a week and they don’t seem to care one bit 🙃 @santanderukhelp

  • rjonesplymouth Ray Jones (@rjonesplymouth) reported

    Dear @virginmedia @santanderuk & other corporates I try to contact, if you have '...been busier than expected' now for the last 2 years, isn't it time that you expected to be busy? Time to change your messages to 'we don't put enough resources into customer service'.

  • Andrewn68 Andrew N (@Andrewn68) reported

    @santanderuk @santanderuk got to love Santander Bank..call to make sure a payment online can be made...yeap no problem, make payment....account gets locked...fraud team dont answer...get told to log on to account that is locked. vicious circle of inept security

  • _CousinBenson Cousin Benson (@_CousinBenson) reported

    @santanderuk Avoid the 123 mini account at all costs. Denied a 17 year old access to his wages for 4 weeks now. Account is healthy but has a fraud blocker attached to it due to an external attempt. No one will help, appointment at Lloyds today to switch. My accounts will follow.

  • TheLost16635091 The_Lost_Boy (@TheLost16635091) reported

    @santanderuk What's the point in telling customers you're too busy to answer the phone to cancel their stolen card, and they should go online, if your website then says they can't cancel your stolen card online and you should call? :(

  • Lokster71 TonyCross (@Lokster71) reported

    Hi @santanderuk I'm trying to log in to your phone app and it isn't opening. I went to the online login but I have to open the phone app to be allowed into the online service. So...any idea what's going on?

  • mescalinehutson GloomySunshine (@mescalinehutson) reported

    @santanderuk I've been on hold for 50 minutes trying to speak to your customer service team. Any idea when the call might be answered?

  • HackTheWorld145 Dita Pesek (@HackTheWorld145) reported

    @santanderuk opening a bank account with Santander is more difficult than applying for any other banking/trading service. Don't waste your time. It just shows how nightmare their customer service is.

  • DianePe23337706 Diane Pearson aka The Duchess (@DianePe23337706) reported

    @santanderuk trying for days to get a new debit card and every time an error message comes up????? Online banking at its best!!

  • Kaavya_dj Kaavya Dijendranath (@Kaavya_dj) reported

    Shockingly bad experience with @santanderuk in trying to open a joint account. Two months of wait, errors on their part only to be told that our application and credit check validity has expired. So glad that @LloydsBank and @monzo are still my main accounts. #NeverSwitching

  • ThatBethWoman Beth☆ベス (@ThatBethWoman) reported

    So @santanderuk told me in branch this morning that they had no idea why my card was broken but they'd issue a second one to my account so that I can continue to use Google pay because I desperately need it. Got a message and email at 23:10, my Google pay and card are cancelled.

  • DrewThomsoncfc Drew Thomson (@DrewThomsoncfc) reported

    @santanderuk she's been told it could take 30 days to resolve ,not good enough for an organisation of your size , I'm sure you have teams who can check in 10 mins who transfred her money and what isp it was from , shocking treatment of a elderly customer

  • leoandrewvw Leo Andrew (Davies) 💙💛🧚☀️🥂🎾🏳️‍🌈🇬🇧 (@leoandrewvw) reported
