  ... Service number. I've tweeted them, DMd them on all social media platforms, but apart from a curt response on FB DM saying amount paid 26 August, with no other details, and no proof of payment, no one has contacted me. The amount has NOT been received by @santanderuk and they

  @santanderuk your app down again, too many times now. Kept my account with you open, but enough is enough.

  ...@santanderuk took the settlement amount from my bank account. Almost £10,000. Eight days later, Santander have still not received the @webuyanycar amount. I am out of pocket. I have been trying to speak to someone, but as 'online Co' they do not have a dedicated customer..

  @santanderuk 7 miles to Corporation Street branch - neither ATMs accepting deposits - 7 miles home - waste of time. Rubbish service as per normal.

  Nothing says “we value you as a customer” like locking a paying customer out of their own money with zero explanation for most of a working day. @santanderukhelp @santanderuk @bancosantander

  CANT BELIEVE THE INCOMPETENCE OF #SANTANDER BANK @santanderuk MADE A SMALL ERROR, AFTER MANY MONTHS THEY FIX IT AND OFFER COMPENSATION YET 6 MONTH AND MANY REMINDERS LATER THEY FAIL TO PAY THEN IGNORE ME. THIS WILL NOT GO AWAY.

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

  @santanderuk what ridiculous chat service on the mobile phone app! I used the chat service yesterday afternoon.... it was replied to this morning! Completely unacceptable and unprofessional service!

• 
  AP (@andyparsons3) reported 18 minutes ago

  Fun fact @santanderuk can flag a €payment in milliseconds but apparently needs a full working day to unflag it. Efficiency clearly only runs one direction when you pay for banking services

  Tim B. (@The_Swell_Shark) reported 19 minutes ago

  @santanderuk Thanks for responding, but I've already used that tool. The issue itself is with capturing the photo of the cheque. No matter what angle, light or background, your app won't complete the process. Awful. Just awful. 👍

  @santanderuk Well, after authorising an unsanctioned withdrawal, they now cant give me access to my mobile or online banking! Cowboy banking basically. Customer service or security cant do a thing either!!

  @santanderuk @TSB Why have you blocked access to online banking unless various ID demands and proof of earnings are met? You say it's the law, but I bank with Barclays and NatWest and haven't had to do this? I don't see how it's only necessary for you?
