  • PatrickKeyte Patrick Keyte (@PatrickKeyte) reported from London Colney, England

    @santanderuk I’ve been trying to apply for a loan all day and once I put the OTP in your site breaks, this has happened numerous times. I can’t use another browser because it asks for a landline number which I do not have.

  • marchartog Marc Hartog (@marchartog) reported from Radlett, England

    Can’t quite believe I am taking to twitter to get someone @santanderuk to talk to me about a major banking error (theirs) that needs urgent attention. Only been a customer for 40 years. Hours on hold, cut offs, no calls back, for 5 days - just call me @jaydunne81 @santanderukhelp

  • TreborRolyat Rob Taylor (@TreborRolyat) reported from Amersham, England

    @santanderuk Shocking customer service wasting hours of peoples time either queuing on phone lines closing local branches reduced opening hours hours. Treat customers with absolute contempt

  • lizardUnicorn Nuclear Summer (@lizardUnicorn) reported from London, England

    @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.

  • CopybyAnna Anna Pattenden (@CopybyAnna) reported from London, England

    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…

    @alex_thfc22 @Barclays @santanderuk Working in banking you need Santander to deal with it as they will be able to locate the payment, Barclays won’t.

  • seapussy Chris Brown (@seapussy) reported

    @santanderukhelp @santanderuk I’ve been on hold for over an hour now after a credit card transaction was denied due to security. What is going on? You’re closing branches and making people use telephone and internet banking but failing in service. Considering moving bank

  • thedickinarms TheDickinArms (@thedickinarms) reported

    If you’re looking for absolutely horrendous customer service and complete ignorance to your business needs, then you should use @santanderuk #badservice #ignored

  • doyst_sparks Doyst (@doyst_sparks) reported

    @santanderuk lock me out of my account, then phone me and put me on hold for 30 mins. Brilliant service!! I have hung up and now started looking at other current account providers.

  • Eddiethestick Eddie O'Reilly (@Eddiethestick) reported

    @santanderuk been fobbed by your customer care team too many times now about trying to book an appointment at your Ealing Broadway branch. Every time they say they’ll get the branch to ring me to arrange a time, still waiting…absolute joke.

  • Pixie_vannucci Pixie Vannucci (@Pixie_vannucci) reported

    @Hysterix92 @santanderuk health. Laws need to be brought in around advertising mh services like they are for finance services and if people person camt be trusted to use common sense then i think legal definitions need to be put in place for whats an illness whats a health and whats a wellbeing issue.

  • Hysterix92 Mat Howis (@Hysterix92) reported

    @Pixie_vannucci @santanderuk I know Pixie and I think me and you are on the same page for all of this. I truly wish I could help your situation, these changes can only happen when people understand, to get that empathy they need to hear the truth.

  • continuouscomms Fiona Nicolson (@continuouscomms) reported

    Question for @santanderuk - do you only offer an online service now? You don't seem to have a phone number on your website and your chat function says it doesn't understand my question, which I put succinctly and clearly. It then directed me to manage my account online.

  • LucyBYeatman Lucy Yeatman (@LucyBYeatman) reported

    Trying to open a new bank account with @santanderuk but there is a problem with documents. We chat can’t help. Not possible to speak to someone on the phone. Very poor service. I will take my custom elsewhere.

    @santanderuk What's wrong with your server. I have work to do
