  Ruth Robinson (@RuthRobinsonLon) reported 6 minutes ago from Islington, England

  It’s hard me to putt into words how much I hate the customer service @santanderuk - their absolute contempt for women is breathtaking. I can’t understand how this doesn’t hurt their international brand or does this attitude emanate from Spain ! @bancosantander It’s perplexing

  @santanderuk A customer of yours, seriously ill with cancer. Never missed a single mortgage payment, but denied any assistance from you. Any explanation?

  I order not to launch a non metaphorical attack against @santanderuk I limit myself to being brutally but politely honest about their customer service #sic on Twitter . I can’t understand how head office can allow their brand to be trashed by the UK division unless they are worse

  I seriously am shocked at @santanderuk - the people, many of them elderly and this probably means no access to online banking, standing for ages and ages in a queue in Lewisham branch. It is truly shameful…

  @santanderuk @santanderukhelp Been trying to report a fraud to you, been holding half the morning. About to hang up. Your service is not good enough. Obviously fraud is not a high priority to you.

  @santanderuk are the worst. Completely ridiculous bunch of clowns. Just shut your private banking operation down if you can't be bothered to provide customer service.

  @santanderuk I need some help on an issue…I closed my account with you in June 2025 which was all finished as I live in Indonesia. However I have just had a refund for a UK purchase actioned and they have refunded to the original card…now closed? What now?

  I wonder how long il be tweeting about how awful @santanderukhelp @santanderuk is and how much more they’re going to lie & do nothing. 4 days in counting. Access blocked, they have information, they are to lazy to review, staff say right to complain. Full of 💩

  I have written "GBP Sterling Only" after the amount on every cheque I have ever written in the UK, and for the first time today, since first having a current account (Chequebook) aged 16 to now, I am 60, the @DVLAgovuk has rejected a cheque saying I have "it is competed incorrectly" stating that wording is not permitted and prevents them from accepting it as a valid form of payment. I have checked with @santanderuk and they said it is completely fine. In 44 years, it has not been an issue, and I think rather than the DVLA being so judgmental and making accusations that are false, they should be honest and say our preference is....

  @santanderuk my partner has asked that I reach out as she doesn’t have X She reported her card having suspicious activity & blocked! Her closest branch is 10miles away! She has been waiting for her card for 10 “working days” two wks in the real world! No card, no local bank?

  @wideawake_media I had issues with Royal Bank of Scotland so I moved my account. Banks are generally crap. Obviously @santanderuk are a sh!t bank with poor customer services

  Tyler (@Empty_With_You) reported 20 minutes ago

  @santanderuk But by blocking my account I am affected. If you had just restricted her access, no problems. You have prevented me from accessing my wages without ever letting me know anything that’s going on. You’ve essentially stolen from me. I have to wait until she finishes work.

  @santanderuk @TSB @santanderuk why is your online banking not working just now?, I need to get on it

  @santanderuk All accounts cancelled and moved today. Credit issue for no apparent reason. An absolute disgrace and terrible customer service response 🤬🤬🙈

  @chalkey1973 @santanderuk are really bad for stopping transfers. If you try to buy something online, send money from savings to current account, answer questions and say you have not seen the item in person, they lock the account. Absolute pain trying to help relatives with this. It took ages
