  • PatrickKeyte Patrick Keyte (@PatrickKeyte) reported from London Colney, England

    @santanderuk I’ve been trying to apply for a loan all day and once I put the OTP in your site breaks, this has happened numerous times. I can’t use another browser because it asks for a landline number which I do not have.

  • youvsyoultd Ahmed Mohammed (@youvsyoultd) reported from Tottenham, England

    @santanderukhelp @santanderuk I’ve contacted your customer service team twice.

  • palmsjane1965 Jane palmer (@palmsjane1965) reported from Hertfordshire, England

    @alex_thfc22 @Barclays @santanderuk Working in banking you need Santander to deal with it as they will be able to locate the payment, Barclays won’t.

  • Olivia121994_ OD 💚 (@Olivia121994_) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    @santanderuk is your app down? Trying to do a transfer and keeps crashing.

  • CopybyAnna Anna Pattenden (@CopybyAnna) reported from London, England

    I seriously am shocked at @santanderuk - the people, many of them elderly and this probably means no access to online banking, standing for ages and ages in a queue in Lewisham branch. It is truly shameful…

  • marchartog Marc Hartog (@marchartog) reported from Radlett, England

    Can’t quite believe I am taking to twitter to get someone @santanderuk to talk to me about a major banking error (theirs) that needs urgent attention. Only been a customer for 40 years. Hours on hold, cut offs, no calls back, for 5 days - just call me!@jaydunne81 @santanderukhelp

  • Janietip Jane Tippett (@Janietip) reported from Tottenham, England

    @santanderuk is there a problem with on line banking. Logging on and keep loosing connection. Not happening with other websites

  • lizardUnicorn Nuclear Summer (@lizardUnicorn) reported from London, England

    @santanderuk are the worst. Completely ridiculous bunch of clowns. Just shut your private banking operation down if you can't be bothered to provide customer service.

  • pmancat David Crossinggum (@pmancat) reported from London, England

    @santanderuk A customer of yours, seriously ill with cancer. Never missed a single mortgage payment, but denied any assistance from you. Any explanation?

  • Scottmaintain Scott Maintenance (@Scottmaintain) reported from Rickmansworth, England

    @santanderuk I see Virgin accounts now let you take a picture of a cheque for paying in, when are we going to get this? John (unhappy cheque receiving Santander customer)

  • MissKristy_LH Miss Kristy 🇮🇪 (@MissKristy_LH) reported from Tottenham, England

    @MorganBroadcast @santanderuk Nevermind, I have just read through the thread and noticed many @Barclays shout outs all over the thread with responses from them. I will be going there. 👍 Hope this issue gets sorted for you.

  • gb_right9 Guilty of Being Right (@gb_right9) reported

    @santanderuk @santanderukhelp Your service is atrocious and this is almost a daily occurrence. Your banking app constantly comes up with errors its literally a lottery as to whether ill be able to log in or not, and your website isn't working at all.

    @santanderuk I have been using Thailand as my home base since selling my UK home in 2018 so I could travel more I gave Fareham Branch my Thai Tel number as OFFCOM stops UK sims working abroad after 3 mths. They told me to update my Thai address on returning in September

  • JohnScottie2 Scottie Collins (@JohnScottie2) reported

    I tried to open an ISA today with @santanderuk as a home for my modest savings. As an existing customer, I assumed that this would be a straightforward process. Far from it. I feel strangled by red tape and am still waiting for a call back. A deeply frustrating experience.

  • endthestigma103 🇬🇧 Robbie Mitchell 🇬🇧 #EndTheStigma (@endthestigma103) reported

    Why are @santanderuk so awful when it comes to chargebacks / refunds on unrecognised transactions? 🙄 Takes a scammer 5 seconds to drain your account yet your expected to wait 7-10 days for your money back and jump Through countless hoops? 🤔

  • SavageEtBeau Andy Kelly (@SavageEtBeau) reported

    @santanderuk as an authenticated user in my online banking, I changed a standing order which was from one Santander account to another. You then blocked my access due to fraud detection. This was a week ago. 3 calls to head office and am told the fraud team will contact me. !

  • R_Gre8 Rob G (@R_Gre8) reported

    @santanderuk I left @HSBC_UK because they would not let me have more than £500 of MY money from 1 of their branches, @santanderuk thank you for the friendly service your team gave today, I withdrew money with no (reasonable) limit & no one interrogated me about what it was for!

  • Dan202338 Dan 2023 (@Dan202338) reported
