    @santanderukhelp The customer relations around this whole technical issue have been a complete fiasco @santanderuk and @santanderukhelp and I sincerely hope the plonker responsible for destroying thousands of peoples plans today is looking for another job on Monday morning !!

  • danieljohnallis Daniel (@danieljohnallis) reported from Gateshead, England

    Sort it out @santanderuk since you changed from Visa to Mastercard, it’s been nothing but issues. My account isn’t working today. Good job this isn’t my main account and I have a couple of current accounts with other banks. As soon as my savings interestrate runs out I’m leaving!

  • dana1smith Dana (@dana1smith) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @santanderuk is there still a problem with card payments ?

  • CasemoreMatt Matt Casemore (@CasemoreMatt) reported from Trimdon Foundry, England

    @santanderuk @santanderukhelp your customer service is appalling. Hanging up on the customer isn't very professional, is it. All we wanted to do was change our address!

  • Kinsal2 sally🌻🇺🇦😷#FBPPE 🇪🇺 (@Kinsal2) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @MorganBroadcast @santanderuk I have just shown her your tweet and she has sensibly decided against an account with @santanderuk . The last thing anyone should feel is that this is the kind of Customer Service that you would recieve if you found yourself the victim of a crime.

  • sorchaodonneII sorcha (@sorchaodonneII) reported from Sunderland, England

    Anyone who banks with @santanderuk having issues with payments declining due to the 3D authentication failing, but it’s not actually giving you an OTP or asking you to authorise the payment on the santander app? Don’t know what to do 🫠

    @santanderuk Trying to open an account, uploading passport as id and it gets rejected over and over. No clue or hint as to problem. Endless loop. Can you provide example or feedback?

  • RaiiShakur Rachel (@RaiiShakur) reported

    @santanderuk will a card work if I have requested a new one (thought I had lost it and now found it) I didn’t block it

  • maxbluenose Maxine Hussey (@maxbluenose) reported

    @santanderuk thank you for blocking me access to my own account for 3 days!! For having the cheek to request a transfer of some of my money to another bank’s fixed saver I’m still waiting for you to get back to me 😡😡

  • thepipster64 Cormery (@thepipster64) reported

    @santanderuk Customer services leave a lot to be desired - months if wasted time. Official Complaint fell on deaf ears, didn't even address the issues. Letter full of spelling and grammatical errors, shows the attitude towards your work. Not good enough - Ombudsman here we come!

  • lwdcourt Dzr (@lwdcourt) reported

    @santanderuk Online banking not working again? Are you saving costs by cutting back on electric usage?

  • criquaer Colin-Roy Hunter (@criquaer) reported

    @santanderuk @bancosantander It’s now 29th Dec, postie pushed mail through our letterbox this afternoon. Still no #DebitCard. Email dated 7th inst,. averred it was en route! A-huh! This is pretty dire #CustomerService. And I have no access to my cash nor purchasing!

  • Lukeaqueer Luke✊🚩🏴or Trans Rights Are Human Rights & ACAB (@Lukeaqueer) reported

    @santanderuk I just want to deposit money into my account but NONE OF YOUR MACHINES IN MANCHESTER CITY CENTRE LET ME DO IT. If I can’t have access to this simple function why am I even with you as my bank?

  • juliepl35097220 julie platt (@juliepl35097220) reported

    @santanderuk disgusted that my account is blocked and never informed yet had a call Boxing Day morning asking questions on my account which I answered . Stranded in a hotel to pay and couldn’t get petrol to get home and had to ring a someone for help . And still account blocked !

  • MMuffin52 MsMuffin52 (@MMuffin52) reported

    @santanderuk Still trying to change signatories on business account-after six months; Santander useless service.

  • StephenNorth3 S N (@StephenNorth3) reported

    @TheFCA @santanderuk my father 90 has not been able to access his account online for two weeks. Website suggests action on his computer which he can’t do - he’s not an expert in clearing cookies and caches. My bank doesn’t require these kinds of intervention. 1/2
