    @santanderuk is there still a problem with card payments ?

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • 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!

  • 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 🫠

  • 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 !!

    @santanderuk is it company policy that branch managers and complaints investigation team ignore customers letters? Written twice to the Tonbridge branch manager and no reply and same big standard reply from complaints. Terrible customer service 😡

  • leecall Leecall (@leecall) reported

    @santanderuk Hi, my grandad keeps receiving phonecalls from an automated service saying its Santander and asking to press any button to hear the message. Is this something Santander would do ?

  • dazholdcroft1 Daz (Oaky) Holdcroft (@dazholdcroft1) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    The Mrs 1 hour and 10 minutes on hold to @santanderuk can’t wait till it’s time to change mortgage I bet they answer first time then shocking service

  • jeremyiwhite Jeremy White (@jeremyiwhite) reported

    @hublok @yuanyi_z The effective interest rate is 1.4% tax free although of course not many people win and the buying power of your investment is falling with inflation. Still, better than the 0.1% (before tax) paid by @santanderuk on my instant access account.

  • _Terry_Barnett Terry Barnett 💙 (@_Terry_Barnett) reported

    @santanderuk A 59 minute wait on the phone to request a copy of a mortgage statement only to be told there’s a charge of £5 for this. Having been with you for 16 years it’s very disappointing to see the days of customer service are gone, and those of arbitrary charges are here.

  • joie_nouvelle Joy of SBM (@joie_nouvelle) reported

    @MorganBroadcast I have just read your thread. This is a nightmare, I truly hope that @santanderuk act now!!! They have failed to take action and then compounded their failures by calling you on your stolen mobile. (WTF) I’m so sorry you are having to deal with this! 🥲

  • adriennelevison Adrienne Levison (@adriennelevison) reported

    @santanderuk Telephone banking hours apparently 8am to 8pm. Phoned at 7.40pm but closed!!! Great service! Had phoned at midday but waited 4 ages then put phone down. GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER ! Enough of calls may take longer 2 answer & sorry u are having to wait.

  • MunchOff Kayles Mcintyre (@MunchOff) reported

    @santanderuk you need to fix this... See @MorganBroadcast Twitter feed. You guys should be shamed.

  • Vercovicium Vercovicium (@Vercovicium) reported

    @MorganBroadcast @santanderuk It's not impossible. The pin number can be extracted from the card.
