  • 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.

  • Webbo2306 Webbo (@Webbo2306) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    @ClemFandango61 @santanderuk I hate them machines but it's not so easy going inside a branch when they keep closing them down and the ones that are still open close at 3pm. Putting money in my own account has become such an inconvenience and it's something I need to do at least 3 times a month😤

  • ldnexec Jason (@ldnexec) reported from Biggin Hill, England

    @santanderuk Your telephone service is diabolical, but I suspect that’s by design. Over 2 minutes listening to messages about how busy it is/why I shouldn’t call. Then a further 4 minutes going through options/messages before I’m even in the queue. Then it’s answered straight away.

  • jo_1lesley Mrs L (@jo_1lesley) reported from Camberwell, England

    Dear @tesco or @santanderuk are you having any payment issues? I can't pay for my online shopping? (And yes, I do have sufficient funds) 😕

  • KateRenton Mrs R (@KateRenton) reported from Merton, England

    @santanderuk what kind of customer care do you provide? We can no longer receive paper cheque in post, you have to transfer to online. No probs but you charge your client an admin fee. You charge me for a service I didn’t request and to receive my own money. #shoddy #shameonyou

  • BigestPaul Paul McCann (@BigestPaul) reported from Bromley, England

    @santanderuk closing my local pets wood branch is one thing. The ATM not working properly is a nightmare. 3x Now I haven't been able to pay cash in via machine. If you would prefer me to take my acc elsewhere. You only have to ask

  • FOG1O1 FOG101 (@FOG1O1) reported from Brentford, England

    @santanderuk thanks for causing an elderly person of my family who I was helping yet again.. you are quick enough to dish out 130m of money..yet block people's money...THEIR money...not yours.. #uselessBanks

  • jenofthejenjen Jen (@jenofthejenjen) reported from Bromley, England

    @santanderukhelp Out of the blue - bam, no reason but app access locked. All cards declined. No access to money. Sorry, but Santander needs 48 hours to figure this out (or in my case, 3 months & counting!) Guess you’ll just have to be homeless. Love to see Ant & Dec act that one out! @santanderuk

  • tonysupernova Tony ****** (@tonysupernova) reported from Croydon, England

    @santanderuk @santanderukhelp I was making an online payment from my 123 account when I suddenly get a message that access is blocked! On hold now trying to get through to the helpdesk for 1 hour and counting.. #CustomerService #Santander #whatajoke

  • chrisromerlee Chris Romer-Lee (@chrisromerlee) reported from Lambeth, England

    @AmySharrocks @santanderuk Left them years ago. Terrible bank. Hope you get it sorted. Presumably there’s a banking ombudsman?

  • GraceCuddihy Grace Cuddihy (@GraceCuddihy) reported from Lambeth, England

    Calling the customer care line for @santanderuk makes you lose the will to live. I hung up after the third time the automated voice told me to inexplicably make a recording of my own voice for “security purposes”.

  • judithhall67 Judith Hall (@judithhall67) reported from Bromley, England

    @santanderuk desperately trying to top up my housebound mum’s mobile but transactions keep failing- any eta on when these system issues will be resolved?

  • twinmaker twinmaker (@twinmaker) reported

    @LizKershawDJ @santanderuk You wouldn't have this problem with a proper British bank

  • J57104065 J (@J57104065) reported

    @santanderuk Tried twice today 30 mins no answer from the fraud line! Can’t sort this on line, tried the bot no good and an on line agent both no help !!

  • lifewassoeasy Woody Cook (@lifewassoeasy) reported

    @LizKershawDJ @santanderuk Thats the problem with wages cheques for more than £500.000.

  • markaphill MarkAPhillips (@markaphill) reported

    @LizKershawDJ @santanderuk 1- try checking opening hours first, you can do that on your phone 2- most banking apps let you scan the cheque with your phone to deposit it 3- get a post office account if you want a physical service Closing banks is inconvenient for many, but your tweet is just dumb.

  • samg2010a Shirley Goodall (@samg2010a) reported

    @LizKershawDJ @santanderuk If you couldn't drive how would you have got to the bank. Many local post offices are also closing down or have gone. Isolation of many vulnerable continues.

    @JonBatchelor8 @LizKershawDJ @santanderuk I remember cheques. We used to have to use them last century all the time. It was awful.
