  • CopybyAnna Anna Pattenden (@CopybyAnna) reported from London, England

    I seriously am shocked at @santanderuk - the people, many of them elderly and this probably means no access to online banking, standing for ages and ages in a queue in Lewisham branch. It is truly shameful…

  • marchartog Marc Hartog (@marchartog) reported from Radlett, England

    Can’t quite believe I am taking to twitter to get someone @santanderuk to talk to me about a major banking error (theirs) that needs urgent attention. Only been a customer for 40 years. Hours on hold, cut offs, no calls back, for 5 days - just call me!@jaydunne81 @santanderukhelp

    @santanderuk is your app down? Trying to do a transfer and keeps crashing.

  • 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.

  • pmancat David Crossinggum (@pmancat) reported from London, England

    @santanderuk A customer of yours, seriously ill with cancer. Never missed a single mortgage payment, but denied any assistance from you. Any explanation?

  • ddibidibidilee Haneul 이하늘 (@ddibidibidilee) reported from Paddington, England

    @santanderuk my card was saying error during the chip and pin in the shop. It was working fine yeaterday and my other card worked in the shop.

  • Everybody63 Patrick (@Everybody63) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @santanderuk hi..i'm having problems logging on to the mobile app

  • lizardUnicorn Nuclear Summer (@lizardUnicorn) reported from London, England

    @santanderuk are the worst. Completely ridiculous bunch of clowns. Just shut your private banking operation down if you can't be bothered to provide customer service.

  • FOG1O1 FOG101 (@FOG1O1) reported from Brentford, England

    @santanderuk thanks for causing an elderly person of my family who I was helping yet again.. you are quick enough to dish out 130m of money..yet block people's money...THEIR money...not yours.. #uselessBanks

  • Scottmaintain Scott Maintenance (@Scottmaintain) reported from Rickmansworth, England

    @santanderuk I see Virgin accounts now let you take a picture of a cheque for paying in, when are we going to get this? John (unhappy cheque receiving Santander customer)

  • coleb86 Bethany Cole (@coleb86) reported from Ealing, England

    @santanderuk hi guys, my parents are away in Italy and my mum had her purse stolen. The thieves have already used her cards. She said she has cancelled one online but is currently on the phone to you (on hold) to confirm both have been cancelled. Can you help?

  • MartinCainActon Martin Cain (@MartinCainActon) reported from Ealing, England

    @RichardBurgon Wee problem with @santanderuk?

  • TiffinSolutions Kam Shah (@TiffinSolutions) reported from Ealing, England

    @santanderuk - why do you not have more people working?!?’ 4 offices and only 1 with a trainee. 3 teller desks and only 2 working. Avg queue 8+ people. And wait time of 30 mins plus. #EalingBroadway branch.

  • TreborRolyat Rob Taylor (@TreborRolyat) reported from Amersham, England

    @santanderuk Shocking customer service wasting hours of peoples time either queuing on phone lines closing local branches reduced opening hours hours. Treat customers with absolute contempt

  • ChristopheSkis Chris Creissen (@ChristopheSkis) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @santanderuk some advice: if a client has processed a change to their mortgage don’t keep messaging them telling them that current deal is expiring and encouraging them to take action.Makes client think that process is broken and new deal not actually in place 🙄 #banking #ux #cx

Santander Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • MsGrowbag Alison (@MsGrowbag) reported

    @MorganBroadcast I'm thinking of changing my bank as very unhappy with their customer service. After reading this, I won't be moving to @santanderuk

  • jeidepinkett Wendy (@jeidepinkett) reported

    @MorganBroadcast If they were able to get into your phone and you have @santanderuk app on the phone, with facial recognition to get into the app, then they can get your PIN, as @santanderuk app offers that service

  • pmaclfc Paul Mackey (@pmaclfc) reported

    @MorganBroadcast Your card PIN number is accessible via the @santanderuk banking app. Once they have access to the app they can get your PIN.

  • HeatherBurghel Heather Burghel (@HeatherBurghel) reported

    @santanderuk need to book a branch appointment to open a 123 mini account and can’t do this online, yet the phone lines aren’t answering. Can you help?

  • HarryECP Harry Parsons (@HarryECP) reported

    @MorganBroadcast Never bank with @santanderuk! They don't give a flying ****. Poor Internet security and dreadful customer service

  • Moneytrainers Moneytrainers - An Adviser in Recovery (@Moneytrainers) reported

    @MoorgateMermaid @santanderuk @MorganBroadcast There more I read the article there more it seemed like an inside job with access to images and such. Big flaw in the systems, not helped by data protection regulations and policing that is off doing other things. I assume this was the Kent Online story from Monday?

  • BartemyS S Bartemy (@BartemyS) reported

    @MorganBroadcast Based on their Twitter feed it looks like @santanderuk is more interested in wokeness and being part of the ESG scam than delivering good customer service.

  • Torque_is_Cheap David P (@Torque_is_Cheap) reported

    @MorganBroadcast @santanderuk @VirginActiveUK This is absolutely disgusting. I'm so sorry for your distress. But i am not surprised. It seems that everyone in UK customer facing roles just don't bother doing their job anymore. And their managers likewise. Take them to claims court.

  • angelblueeyes13 Angela ⓥ 🌿🌱💚 (@angelblueeyes13) reported

    @MorganBroadcast @santanderuk @VirginActiveUK A long time ago, I had a business issue with a bank who then frozen all card payments I had taken until I proved that I had provided the service I had taken payment for. It wasn’t enough to provide receipts, I had to write to each customer (pre-email) and they had to sign 1/2

  • JulieMcCHS Julie McDonald (@JulieMcCHS) reported

    @MorganBroadcast OMG this is terrible and @santanderuk have made the situation so much worse by trying to contact you on your stolen phone. Try the ombudsman. Good luck
