    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!

  • craigkelly1969 Craig Kelly. 🇬🇧🏳️‍🌈 (@craigkelly1969) reported from Newburn, England

    @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 !!

  • 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!

    @santanderuk @santanderukhelp Santander your service is a joke. U blocked my transaction and now I am in the phone for more than an hour and counting... U will put me through to someone as soon as you can. Probably next century...

  • dh14162 dh14162 (@dh14162) reported

    @santanderuk absolutely the worst customer experience. Your eSaver account is happy to take money in but when withdrawing money it blocked my account. 2hrs on the phone and then security tries to execute the transaction over the phone and it's reblocked account! Ops now needed!

  • garbs75 Adam (@garbs75) reported

    @santanderuk (Pt 5). 10 working days with no use on my card? Genuinely absolutely disgraceful conduct. As soon as this is resolved I will be moving banks and will never, ever recommend you. I’ve got to rely on family and friends to lend me cash for the next week or so. And I’m the victim.

  • RuthHindmarch2 CassandraSaySo (@RuthHindmarch2) reported

    @santanderuk I only want to sign in not remember numbers and passwords. My face has been enough up to now How much is in my bank now

  • YeOldeBill1 Ye Olde Bill (@YeOldeBill1) reported

    Just seen an ad with Ant & Dec for @santanderuk saying they take scams seriously. They certainly don't! I had a series of emails, apparently from Santander, except I dont have an account with them. They make it impossible to contact anyone to report the scam.

  • ClaudiaPeace2 Claudia Peace (@ClaudiaPeace2) reported

    @santanderuk shocking customer service -1hr to get through, 10 days to replace a stolen bank card..(which was sent 2nd class mail!) and unhelpful server attitude. This will be one customer less.

  • MrIndyDC United365 (@MrIndyDC) reported

    @santanderuk I applied to the 2.75% esaver account last week and sent all the documents requested, but heard nothing since. What's the issue? Why no communication?

  • badlxnd Ritchie (@badlxnd) reported

    @santanderuk your live chat bot is absolutely terrible

  • bruciebreferee bruce b (@bruciebreferee) reported

    @santanderuk you have 1 Branch in the city where your head office is based. It closes at 3pm. All other banks around open Trying to unlock a frozen account. You are to customer service what Dr Crippen was to marriage guidance. #soontobeexcustomer
