  • 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 🫠

  • Kinsal2 sally🌻🇺🇦😷#FBPPE 🇪🇺 (@Kinsal2) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @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.

  • danieljohnallis Daniel (@danieljohnallis) reported from Gateshead, England

    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!

    @santanderuk Is the problem with debit cards, from yesterday sorted out yet?

  • WharfPotato Depressed by (not just) cladding (@WharfPotato) reported

    @santanderuk very disappointing experience today having transferred hubby to you, spent almost 2 hours on hold to speak to someone, admits your staff made an error then rather than deal as she said she would, she puts my call back into the queue. Second thoughts for the transfer

  • joburgfoodE multi-vaxxer (@joburgfoodE) reported

    @santanderuk Your service is truly terrible. I've been holding for 22 mins and now told to phone again for the Fraud Line to rectify *your* *error* and to expect a wait of up to one hour??! You need to hire some humans...

  • DouglasRoblesT Douglas Robles-Thome (@DouglasRoblesT) reported

    @santanderuk The fact that me losing my phone totally blocks me from using my card online is appalling. Your online OTP service did not allow me to change my number. Had I been in danger with a broken phone I would have been stranded. Severely disappointed.

  • Wandsworth3 Deputy WandsworthEye (@Wandsworth3) reported

    @santanderuk Cannot access my accounts as your app fails to open. It hangs after I enter the passcode. Not impressed - you are a grown up bank, not a piggy bank

  • iowmillie Millie (@iowmillie) reported

    . @santanderuk been in Greece for a month and suddenly my card isn't working here. Everytime I try to get cash it just says transaction cancelled. Tried multiple ATMs. Is there a known problem?

  • TerrySpinks5 Terry Spinks (@TerrySpinks5) reported

    @santanderuk My cards been declined for no reason today! Spent 2 hours on the phone, no answer, disgusting service… is there a problem… as your customers we deserve A reply!!!!

  • CharlesRuncie Charles Runcie (@CharlesRuncie) reported

    @santanderuk Please please Santander, please remove those TERRIBLE adverts with A+D. They're witless, patronising, embarrassing. Save some money and get Howard from that other lot, or use that meerkat, even a black horse - anything!

  • Jonesj1988 Jonesy (@Jonesj1988) reported

    @j0nnybe @santanderuk Don’t bother mate been on for 1:30 and still counting think they have give up for the day whatever has happened is massive. They haven’t even had the decency to tweet and say sorry about payment problems today chaps 😡 joke of a bank

  • midwifbutterfly midwifebutterfly (@midwifbutterfly) reported

    @santanderuk All... the FCA suggest that all working with customers in finance should TCF or treat customers fairly. Ask for a formal complaint. Even if you accept compensation you can still progress to the ombudsman.... Santander have been treating customers with disdain for some time now.
