    @santanderuk appalling time scale waiting for the security team on the phone. 1hr 30 and then gets cut off!!!! My account is blocked and cannot access my funds terrible customer service

  • Blaiise1 Blaise™🇮🇹🇳🇬 (@Blaiise1) reported from Westhoughton, England

    @santanderuk our accents are all different and we can't sound like the automated voice in the telephone banking service. If you were going to use customers voice as passwords, you should have made provisions for various accents in a diversified UK.

  • gsdliz 🐺Liz🐺 (@gsdliz) reported

    @NeilMackay78 @MorganBroadcast @santanderuk As a Santander customer I'm following this closely too! Absolutely horrific experience for the poor girl.

  • sarcastic_ali Ali (@sarcastic_ali) reported

    @Sue_Pook @santanderuk If it helps I'm with Nationwide. They are constantly checking I'm me even with the regular monthly stuff. It's usually via the phone app though, so I'm not sure it would have helped here. But app access is locked to fingerprint/PIN that is different to the card PIN?

  • e_acheson Elizabeth Acheson (@e_acheson) reported

    @MorganBroadcast What an awful set of events, so sorry you’ve had all this to deal with, without your phone, immediate access to home (w/o keys) and all your personal stuff. Absolute nightmare not helped by the cavalier attitude of @VirginActiveUK and @santanderuk #rubishcustomerjourney

  • GleannIucha nicola (@GleannIucha) reported

    @MorganBroadcast @NeilMackay78 @santanderuk Charlotte, sorry you are suffering in this manner. This gives me horrors; so many synergies with own fears expressed to Santander in past over security & customer service Your’s worst case of all what ifs coming together - proving IS possible Your thread a public service

  • sarahjebner Sarah Ebner (@sarahjebner) reported

    @MorganBroadcast So sorry to hear about this - terrible for it to happen, but the reactions of @santanderuk & @VirginActiveUK must have made a difficult situation so much worse.

  • beckylj_roberts Rebecca Roberts (@beckylj_roberts) reported

    @MorganBroadcast Charlotte, I don’t know you but this is absolutely awful and my heart goes out to you. I will be advising my three kids to look at other banks ASAP. I really hope you manage to get this resolved and @santanderuk and @VirginActiveUK start to take some responsibility. Take care x

  • AyresElizabeth Elizabeth Ayres (@AyresElizabeth) reported

    @MorganBroadcast Horrendous, I sincerely hope @Santanderuk support you and fast! I have online banking with them too, and will be watching your story closely as I'm appalled at their response so far.

  • ORIoliver Irena 🇺🇦 (@ORIoliver) reported

    @MorganBroadcast Similar happened to my friend in July. Card etc stolen from gym, thief somehow got access to pin. @santanderuk totally unhelpful. Kept stupidly sending info to stolen phone. Rude to my friend, treated her like a criminal despite immaculate banking record.

  • JasonTheHH Jason💙 (@JasonTheHH) reported

    @MorganBroadcast That’s truly awful. @santanderuk needs evidence that you compromised your own PIN security. Sounds very unlikely that you did! Note: is there a way for a thief to have a PIN reset sent to your phone (& was this done?), or even to remind you of your PIN in the App? (Some apps do)

  • A_True_Liberal The Libertarian (@A_True_Liberal) reported

    @agegarton @MorganBroadcast @santanderuk Having worked in call centres, there are lots of hard working customer service staff. No question. There are also staff who don't give a damn about customers and just want hit their targets and get to the end of their shift with as little hassle as possible.
