    ... 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 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..

    @JohnJamesDuffy @santanderuk Hope you've managed to get through and sorted? My partner spent hours last week trying to get through to Lloyds. Banking customer service these days is absolutely useless, so much for progress! They just don't seem bothered or interested. It was much better years ago.

    @RichardBurgon Wee problem with @santanderuk?

  • JohnJamesDuffy j o h n j a m e s d u f f y (@JohnJamesDuffy) reported

    Absolutely dreadful service from @santanderuk. I have been trying to contact their fraud department for getting into two hours now with no success. 👎👎👎👎

  • DavidJEtheridge David J Etheridge (@DavidJEtheridge) reported

    @santanderuk had a problem regarding a bank transfer.

    @santanderuk Disgusting treatment of my son by Santander. He is a customer and yet you have not helped him over a perfectly reasonable SAR and now he risks failing a security screening for his new job because you have not given him the info he needs! Shame on you!

  • kevihaynes Kevin Anthony Haynes (@kevihaynes) reported

    @bancosantander @santanderuk Do you believe in modern slavery? Your website claims you are against it, yet your employees do best to modern slave me, via chicanery + avoidance beyond 30 days of clearance and payment of bank funds for my U.S studio work. I want access to my money.

  • Vanguard144 Andy Young (@Vanguard144) reported

    Nice one @santanderuk , changing the 123 current account to only pay interest if you now have 2 direct debits. How does that help some of your most vulnerable customers that only pay a care home fee by direct debit? #reallynotimpressed

  • MillingsOwn Millings Own (@MillingsOwn) reported

    @santanderuk you locked my account a week ago while I was sending money to my other account, your lines are never free, online chat is a robot and I have no access to my online banking and this is after all the trouble you caused on the 1st July and the locked the account on 2nd
