    Sort it out @santanderuk since you changed from Visa to Mastercard, it’s been nothing but issues. My account isn’t working today. Good job this isn’t my main account and I have a couple of current accounts with other banks. As soon as my savings interestrate runs out I’m leaving!

    @MorganBroadcast @santanderuk I have just shown her your tweet and she has sensibly decided against an account with @santanderuk . The last thing anyone should feel is that this is the kind of Customer Service that you would recieve if you found yourself the victim of a crime.

  • sorchaodonneII sorcha (@sorchaodonneII) reported from Sunderland, England

    Anyone who banks with @santanderuk having issues with payments declining due to the 3D authentication failing, but it’s not actually giving you an OTP or asking you to authorise the payment on the santander app? Don’t know what to do 🫠

    My friend tried to transfer money from the @santanderuk to US today and they wouldn’t let it go through. On the phone for 2 hours and still didn’t work. If you can’t access your money from a bank what worth is it?

    @santanderuk instead of jumping on the ukraine band wagon why dont you sort out your customer service for UK customers.. the phone line cut out as soon as I got through and started speaking after waiting 40 minutes. DISGUSTING

  • WYeates Will Yeates (@WYeates) reported

    Trying to get to work but @TFL @santanderuk cycles have 1. blocked my account without any warning, 2. won't let me log in to fix it, and 3. can't take a new card on the phone due to a bug. They also 4. Can't call me back to fix it when it is fixed....

  • Ritchie_2112 Ritchie (@Ritchie_2112) reported

    @santanderuk @santanderuk Abysmal customer service. Now , to add insult to injury, you have started charging premium rate to call you on the phone. Well done.

  • jessminter94 Jess (@jessminter94) reported

    @santanderuk are you having issues with Mastercards today? Not letting my pay for anything...

  • joaolourfonseca LorenzoFonseca (@joaolourfonseca) reported

    @santanderuk why are you not letting me make payments? I can’t reach your agents and can’t even log in to online banking. Would be nice to get someone to help!

    @SwintonGroup 35 minutes and still waiting to renew policy are you trying to beat @santanderuk crap service

  • MollieBagshaw Mollie Bagshaw (@MollieBagshaw) reported

    Disgusted that Santander would not take responsibility when they lose a deposit of cheques. They definitely do not support small businesses like they say they do. @santanderuk @santanderukhelp

  • StephenWomack12 Stephen Womack (@StephenWomack12) reported

    @santanderuk please get your act together - I’ve just wasted 45 minutes of my evening on the phone to you because I tried to transfer some money from my Santander current account through the app, to my Tide business account and was blocked access to my account and app.

    @santanderuk just poor customer service at the moment! Why don’t you have enough people answering the phones?
