    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!

    @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!

    It's when things go wrong that you really find how a bank deals with individuals. Been with @santanderuk for a long time but over the last few days their customer services + complaints handling has been poor. Everyone makes mistakes, but the way they've responded is inexplicable.

  • stoner1968 @Stoner #BackBoris100% (@stoner1968) reported

    @santanderuk took just over an hour to get through!! Very poor service. Customers be aware that someone has managed to send a text from Santander Bank to say a new payment was setup with a link! DO NOT CLICK ON THE LINK if you didn’t set up the payment! #Phishing #Scammer 🚨

  • MB83687 MB83687 (@MB83687) reported

    @santanderuk have a loan with you. Trying to change my payment debit date. Told I had to register for OLB. Took a week waiting for multiple letters with different codes. Finally get it working. Can't change date in app or online. Never known anything so difficult. #backwards

  • tristaningram Tristan Ingram (@tristaningram) reported

    Shout out to @santanderuk Website keeps crashing. Wasted 2 hours trying to log a credit card dispute claim for £86 which won’t let me upload the back up info. Then sit on a call for 1 hour and 5 mins speak to 2 different people to tell me the manager will call me back Useless

    @Mystsoftymes @santanderuk @CWUnews I just want to fix our broken systems you know people need better they deserve better

  • UshmaGudka Ushma Gudka (@UshmaGudka) reported

    @santanderukhelp @santanderuk Doesn't help if you want a children's account which can't be applied for online! Managed to do it far more easy with other banks. And really 11 months! Your response indicates that this isn't important to the bank.

    @santanderuk Been holding for over an hour now. I get that your lines are busy but there comes a point where it is clear you don't have enough people dealing with calls. That time has now passed.. How do I get some customer service?

  • JonathanLaryea_ Jonathan Laryea (@JonathanLaryea_) reported

    @santanderuk I cannot access my account via the app. Instructed to call the help desk, been on hold for an hour. Is anyone there??

  • fun5131 Lauren Anderson (@fun5131) reported

    @santanderuk I lost my online banking information as I haven’t used it for years. I tried to phone the customer service hundreds of times and wanted to use it online again. But never get worked. Either no body answer the phone(waiting more than 20mins) or no body get it resolved.
