  Mrs R (@KateRenton) reported 9 minutes ago from Merton, England

  @santanderuk what kind of customer care do you provide? We can no longer receive paper cheque in post, you have to transfer to online. No probs but you charge your client an admin fee. You charge me for a service I didn’t request and to receive my own money. #shoddy #shameonyou

  Calling the customer care line for @santanderuk makes you lose the will to live. I hung up after the third time the automated voice told me to inexplicably make a recording of my own voice for “security purposes”.

  @AmySharrocks @santanderuk Left them years ago. Terrible bank. Hope you get it sorted. Presumably there’s a banking ombudsman?

  @santanderuk My wife transferred some money to my daughter on October 11th. The money left our account but hasn’t arrived yet! It’s not the first time we’ve transferred money to her but normally it goes through straightaway. Can you fix this please?

  @santanderuk stop sending emails about using my overdraft when the reason it happened is because you stopped sending texts to say I was nearing it. I received no notification you were doing this. Surely you’ve noticed I only pay bills from them, useless bank with no cust service

  @hnjsamuels @santanderuk Customer service is a thing of the past. It's all apps and bots. It's like banging your head against a brick wall.

  @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

  Garry Peat (@RidgewayRam) reported 22 minutes ago

  @santanderuk This continued for a further 24 hrs with over 35 new accts being opened. I, therefore, had to call to explain the situation. The call handler was helpful and said he would close the new accts but I was staggered that as a customer facing employee he was not aware of the situation

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

  Disappointed @santanderuk that you moved my local Canary Wharf branch without telling me. Not good customer service.

  @santanderuk your customer care is shocking. I have been on your live chat since 3.20pm and no one has come back to me. No one at all
