    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!

  • 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.

  • 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 🫠

    @santanderuk Recently switched to Santander from Nationwide< what a mistake that was. Incompetent complaints department and promised by branch manager to deal with a problem who has done nothing. Need to switch back pronto to a proper bank.

    @santanderuk Card transactions still not working … when will this be fixed?

  • stonedg44 David Stone (@stonedg44) reported

    @santanderuk Waited over 40 minutes and still no agent to speak with. Online banking no help either as "Chat with us" is useless at responding to a simple question. Coived-19 has been here long enough for any business to have sorted this.

  • bemusedwithlife Sophie (@bemusedwithlife) reported

    @santanderuk If it was the customer having problems with their account, & we said to Santander that we were sorry and "working hard to fix the issue", that wouldn't cut it, we would be charged.🤬But if it's the other way round...!🤬

  • BIGrsJ JMP 🇬🇧 (@BIGrsJ) reported

    3 hours 15 minutes SO FAR on the phone to @santanderuk customer service. Last straw for me after nearly 40 years 😤

  • latour_kiri Lepidopterous latour (@latour_kiri) reported

    @santanderuk Have been trying to access my account online since this .owning Still not able to. When will this be resolved? I received a (scam?) Call this morning telling me of 2 attempts to access my account through Amazon amounting to 4 figure sums. Help please

  • MichaelOlleren3 Michael Ollerenshaw (@MichaelOlleren3) reported

    @santanderuk Why are you constantly having issues ,any chance of a truthful answer.

  • kevinyeomans Kevin Yeomans (@kevinyeomans) reported

  • JamesCoulter9 James Coulter (@JamesCoulter9) reported

    @santanderuk I’m trying to make a payment via the app today in connection with a property purchase and keep getting the error “oops something went wrong”. When will this be fixed?
