    @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!

    @MorganBroadcast @santanderuk Shame on you @santanderuk - it’s time you treated your customer with some care and respect, rather than making her life more difficult when she’s been made a victim from no fault of her own.

  • Bridgeanne Anne Booth 💙 (@Bridgeanne) reported

    @MorganBroadcast That is absolutely terrible. I was actually thinking of transferring to @santanderuk & I definitely won't rush to do that now. I can't believe what a terrible experience you have had - & the fact that they also took from your savings is appalling. I hope it all gets sorted asap.

  • lisabethanne Lis (@lisabethanne) reported

    @MorganBroadcast I’m appalled by the way @santanderuk have dealt with this. And even more appalled by the fact that their app shows my PIN number. Off to move banks to one with a) better security and b) better customer service. Heard good things about @StarlingBank

  • TheLittleHous19 The Little House (@TheLittleHous19) reported

    @MorganBroadcast This is so bad! I am so sorry this happened to you and the fact that @santanderuk and @VirginActiveUK are refusing to help / take any responsibility is appalling.

  • JasonTheHH Jason💙 (@JasonTheHH) reported

    @MorganBroadcast That’s truly awful. @santanderuk needs evidence that you compromised your own PIN security. Sounds very unlikely that you did! Note: is there a way for a thief to have a PIN reset sent to your phone (& was this done?), or even to remind you of your PIN in the App? (Some apps do)

  • kuantancurls Ruth Watson (@kuantancurls) reported

    @PeterDbrash @MorganBroadcast Oh, this is giving me the pure horrors. Ay, I just had a look at my mobile banking app and it can give me my PIN details. If someone got into your app, they would have had nor trouble getting easy use of your cards. It is awful that @santanderuk are blaming you.

  • ProfGarethT Gareth Thomas 💙 (@ProfGarethT) reported

    @PeterDbrash @MorganBroadcast Just checked with @santanderuk and they say there’s no way of disabling the pin reminder in the app. WTF?!!!!

  • joannamont 🌟 joannamont 🌟 (@joannamont) reported

    @MorganBroadcast Sorry to hear it. Especially given that the PIN is easily accessed via the app, I really hope @santanderuk do the right thing here. My dad is a customer of theirs and it’s worrying to know that he wouldn’t be protected in a similar scenario.

  • Chelsea_ej Chelsea🐶 (@Chelsea_ej) reported

    @MorganBroadcast Did you get the details of the other people who have also been frauded? Have they hit a brick wall with their banks and the gym?I’m so sorry this has happened to you. I hope the police do look into this and I hope @VirginActiveUK and @santanderuk see that they are also a problem

  • MMcaughtrie mike mcaughtrie (@MMcaughtrie) reported

    @santanderuk sort out @MorganBroadcast issue and your customer service while you're at it. She's lost her savings through no fault of her own. Easier to blame victim than take action. @VirginActiveUK you bear responsibility too
