    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 !!

    Comedic online purchase from @Screwfix. @santanderuk decided I needed a one-time code. It never came. I phoned them. "Turn your phone on and off and try again." Still no code. Phoned again - Elaine in Liverpool puts me on infinite silent hold. Screwfix site gets bored waiting.

  • Mr13alls Julian (@Mr13alls) reported

    @santanderuk I am not a customer but I went into a Santander branch and asked the cashier if they could give me two fifty pence pieces for a pound coin, I appreciate that there is no profit in this transaction, needless to say I was told no. Now you want me to switch my current account.

    @FireyRoxy @ChrisDorrell @santanderuk Or maybe he is just sticking by his long term best friend, just like all of us would do. You cant blame Dec for any of Ants issues or decisions
