  • 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!

  • 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!

  • 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.

    @santanderuk Great customer service team you have on the phone and complaints department.... NOT! Worst bank I've encountered! Rude *** staff!!

  • Arrowmaker15 Robert Fletcher (@Arrowmaker15) reported

    @antanddec perhaps you could go and help @santanderuk answer their phones?

  • holly1977_holly Holly Daglish (@holly1977_holly) reported

    @santanderuk great customer service over the last few months and particularly today! 🙏🏻

  • DannyUK DannyUK #BLM (@DannyUK) reported

    @santanderukhelp Back in @santanderuk Birkenhead again. Branch opens at 9.30am. At 9.35am one of the two cashiers working the tills stops serving customers and disappears for 5 minutes. Surely whatever she's doing could have been done before opening? Or when there were no customers in the queue?

  • Kluteuk Klute (@Kluteuk) reported

    What an absolute disaster you are @santanderuk . Nobody has the time to wait for your vastly understaffed call centres. Stop using "these difficult times" as your excuse for lack of service.

  • celticangie angela sheridan (@celticangie) reported

    Hey @santanderuk how about just admitting there's an issue with people trying to pay by card today? Judging from your help page I'm not the only one experiencing problems.

  • darren029 Darren Evans (@darren029) reported

    @santanderuk online service is a joke absolutely woeful 🖕

  • CoxandClan Wobbly Cyclist (@CoxandClan) reported

    . @santanderuk now charging premium rates for customer service phone calls! Absolutely disgusting. Elderly father cannot even order himself a cheque book now.

  • _fireyjack Firey Jack (@_fireyjack) reported

    @santanderuk Woeful service. Trying to report lost card since before 8pm this evening. On hold for 2h 45m and counting. Can’t use app as phone was lost also. online banking via chat bot - useless. Now have to go to bed uncertain about account security. Pitiful.

  • jrrobbo Julian Robinson (@jrrobbo) reported

    @santanderuk credit cards are an absolute disgrace. Overseas and card blocked - no one answering on customer services. Spent 45 mins on hold and the line went dead… terrible service
