    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!

  • 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 🫠

    @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.

    @santanderuk Holding on phone forever listening to music. 45 minutes now. Transferred from one person to another. Very simple query to help line. ‘Help line’? Nobody seems able to help without passing on to someone else. This really is the most incompetent organisation!

    Hello again @santanderuk. After spending more than an hour on hold last week I was provided some details to pay into a mortgage account that don’t work with bacs transfers. Do I need to repeat the whole process again, or can someone get in touch with me to correct the error?

    Unbelievable that @santanderuk App still doesn't have cheque scan like "all" other banking apps. They've closed all my local branches - so how? btw website gives instructions how to do it..I assume in Spain. Is this a dying bank in UK?
