    @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.

  • 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.

  • 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)

  • 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.

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

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

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

  • 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…

  • 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.

    @santanderuk my app isn't working I can't revieve or make payments/transfers

  • NthrnCyclistTVL Ride Primary TVL (@NthrnCyclistTVL) reported

    Been on the phone to @santanderuk for over 90mins so far, wondering if they are always this bad, or it's down to people working from home. Can't imagine how anyone can contact them when they don't happen to be on holiday!

  • heyendlife peter lorimer (@heyendlife) reported

    @santanderuk why, oh why, is the postal address for cheques so well hidden on your website? I know they aren't used much nowadays, but for some of us it's the way we have to pay in cheques! Please move to a more accessible place on the website. Thank you.

  • janeonhate Jane Silverman (@janeonhate) reported

    @santanderuk someone applied for a credit card in my name #fraud How do I contact you to cancel this? Your customer service number insists on me having a card number before I can get to a human.

  • lillianhepburn Lillian Hepburm (@lillianhepburn) reported

    @santanderuk why are you so obstructive when dealing with customers? The lack of a consistent response from customer services is infuriating!! There is also a significant lack of communication from you with other banks, preventing progress!! I regret being a customer 😤

  • ThisIsJamesM James M. (@ThisIsJamesM) reported

    Top job @santanderuk! Let me send a secure message via online banking, then send an email to say the service is no longer available. Send the same message to the online chat, to which the bot replied “I’m not sure I understand” Ask to speak to an agent, “Sorry, none available” 😒
