    Hey @santanderuk I made a large online transfer. Your automated service rang me to check it was legit. I waited for over 10 minutes to be put through to someone then gave up on account of being at work.

  • traybakes66 Sally Campton (@traybakes66) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @santanderuk A further 11 minutes talking to a pleasant but unable to help me member of your helpdesk. Advised I'll have to call the first number again and expect to wait another 30 minutes. BTW, I spoke last week to Santander to make sure the transfer would be straightforward

    @santanderuk in Northern Ireland does not issue @bankofengland notes from its ATMs. Not good.

    @santanderuk your customer service is a joke. On hold for over an hour. Awful

  • kane_tabitha ThaliaTheWriter (@kane_tabitha) reported

    @santanderuk Rubbish customer service. On hold for over an hour! How is that ok!

  • StuartLeigh1 Stuart Leigh (@StuartLeigh1) reported

    @santanderuk Today I made a formal complaint about the advice I was given regarding my mortgage and whilst the lade I spoke top was sympathetic and helpful I cant help feeling she didn't get all the details of the complaint

  • Simon_J_Wade Simon Wade (@Simon_J_Wade) reported

    @santanderukhelp @santanderuk Can anyone at Santander tell me how they think a regular 40 minute telephone holding time is acceptable to customers who have to take time out of a working day to rectify their bank’s mistakes?

  • HeathJonathan Jonathan Heath (@HeathJonathan) reported

    @santanderuk @santanderukhelp your customer service on hold times are ridiculous. Why not just have a call back function?

  • KyStefen Ky (@KyStefen) reported

    @santanderuk You are getting rid of passbooks for savings accounts. How am I meant to put in my tax refunds or any checks if I don't have a passport or driving licence that you are telling me I will need now to do that. That means I am going to loose access to my own money.

  • KernotTom Tom Pepper-Kernot (@KernotTom) reported

    @santanderuk Im moving my mortgage. You're no help. I'm waiting on the phone for 30mins. I cannot log online to get any info as i dont have a bank account with you. Useless.

    @santanderuk What’s going on with the mobile banking app? Every time I try to authorise payment for an online purchase it’s telling me the session has timed out so I can’t authorise it. Is the app down for maintenance?

    @santanderuk Tell you what @santanderuk get someone to answer the telephone on your help line!
