  • coleb86 Bethany Cole (@coleb86) reported from Ealing, England

    @santanderuk hi guys, my parents are away in Italy and my mum had her purse stolen. The thieves have already used her cards. She said she has cancelled one online but is currently on the phone to you (on hold) to confirm both have been cancelled. Can you help?

  • 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.

  • Webbo2306 Webbo (@Webbo2306) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    @ClemFandango61 @santanderuk I hate them machines but it's not so easy going inside a branch when they keep closing them down and the ones that are still open close at 3pm. Putting money in my own account has become such an inconvenience and it's something I need to do at least 3 times a month😤

  • FOG1O1 FOG101 (@FOG1O1) reported from Brentford, England

    @santanderuk thanks for causing an elderly person of my family who I was helping yet again.. you are quick enough to dish out 130m of money..yet block people's money...THEIR money...not yours.. #uselessBanks

  • ddibidibidilee Haneul 이하늘 (@ddibidibidilee) reported from Paddington, England

    @santanderuk my card was saying error during the chip and pin in the shop. It was working fine yeaterday and my other card worked in the shop.

  • tonysupernova Tony ****** (@tonysupernova) reported from Croydon, England

    @santanderuk @santanderukhelp I was making an online payment from my 123 account when I suddenly get a message that access is blocked! On hold now trying to get through to the helpdesk for 1 hour and counting.. #CustomerService #Santander #whatajoke

  • judithhall67 Judith Hall (@judithhall67) reported from Bromley, England

    @santanderuk desperately trying to top up my housebound mum’s mobile but transactions keep failing- any eta on when these system issues will be resolved?

  • jenofthejenjen Jen (@jenofthejenjen) reported from Bromley, England

    @santanderukhelp Out of the blue - bam, no reason but app access locked. All cards declined. No access to money. Sorry, but Santander needs 48 hours to figure this out (or in my case, 3 months & counting!) Guess you’ll just have to be homeless. Love to see Ant & Dec act that one out! @santanderuk

  • 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…

  • KateRenton Mrs R (@KateRenton) reported from Merton, England

    @santanderuk what kind of customer care do you provide? We can no longer receive paper cheque in post, you have to transfer to online. No probs but you charge your client an admin fee. You charge me for a service I didn’t request and to receive my own money. #shoddy #shameonyou

  • ldnexec Jason (@ldnexec) reported from Biggin Hill, England

    @santanderuk Your telephone service is diabolical, but I suspect that’s by design. Over 2 minutes listening to messages about how busy it is/why I shouldn’t call. Then a further 4 minutes going through options/messages before I’m even in the queue. Then it’s answered straight away.

  • WatkinsonGary gary watkinson (@WatkinsonGary) reported from Islington, England

    @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.

  • jo_1lesley Mrs L (@jo_1lesley) reported from Camberwell, England

    Is there a problem @santanderuk ?

  • Fabs11111111 xxx (@Fabs11111111) reported from Kensington, England

    @santanderuk Very bad service today Been on the phone since 12.00 know it's 14.00 the phone is ringing u can hear it but no is answering it on the other end Very poor customer service

  • TiffinSolutions Kam Shah (@TiffinSolutions) reported from Ealing, England

    @santanderuk - why do you not have more people working?!?’ 4 offices and only 1 with a trainee. 3 teller desks and only 2 working. Avg queue 8+ people. And wait time of 30 mins plus. #EalingBroadway branch.

  • jo_1lesley Mrs L (@jo_1lesley) reported from Camberwell, England

    Dear @tesco or @santanderuk are you having any payment issues? I can't pay for my online shopping? (And yes, I do have sufficient funds) 😕

  • chrisromerlee Chris Romer-Lee (@chrisromerlee) reported from Lambeth, England

    @AmySharrocks @santanderuk Left them years ago. Terrible bank. Hope you get it sorted. Presumably there’s a banking ombudsman?

  • BigestPaul Paul McCann (@BigestPaul) reported from Bromley, England

    @santanderuk closing my local pets wood branch is one thing. The ATM not working properly is a nightmare. 3x Now I haven't been able to pay cash in via machine. If you would prefer me to take my acc elsewhere. You only have to ask

  • MartinCainActon Martin Cain (@MartinCainActon) reported from Ealing, England

    @RichardBurgon Wee problem with @santanderuk?

  • GraceCuddihy Grace Cuddihy (@GraceCuddihy) reported from Lambeth, England

    Calling the customer care line for @santanderuk makes you lose the will to live. I hung up after the third time the automated voice told me to inexplicably make a recording of my own voice for “security purposes”.

  • RaiiShakur Rach (@RaiiShakur) reported

    @santanderuk I’m waiting for an unarranged overdraft to come off my account (taken in error) spoke to CS this morning who said it would come off today. Money has just gone into this account and been taken will this go back in when the overdraft comes off? #ihateamazon.

  • fluffyberty Flavia Bertolini (@fluffyberty) reported

    @santanderuk You are the worst bank. My boyfriend’s card keeps getting duplicated (clearly an inside job!). You left him with no access to cash. You then gave him £200 compensation but have now taken it back! Sickening service.

  • Fabish Ally Fabish (@Fabish) reported

    @santanderuk been trying since 2.07 to talk to someone. It’s now 3.47, worst customer service ever

  • pendolinodriver Ex-pendolinodriver (@pendolinodriver) reported

    good morning @santanderuk have you a telephone number for customer relations team please

  • JulesAB1075 JulesABC1075 (@JulesAB1075) reported

    @santanderuk Your Switch and £130 cash back has turned out to be a huge con!! Filled in the Switch form as directed on your website for an existing account and now being told it had to be an external a/c which had to be closed within 60 days. I can't close an account

  • Pmi1gate Paul Milgate (@Pmi1gate) reported

    @parkx19 @santanderuk I have two cards for two different Santander accounts and both were declined yesterday along with Apple Pay. Card machine said ‘referral a’ and me not shopkeeper had ever seen that. He tried his card as I said it must be his machine and it worked. Must be Santander issue

  • portybelly Flash (@portybelly) reported

    @santanderuk The impact is where you block customers access to all accounts for 4 months and counting for a single disputed business transaction. Average over half an hour to try to speak to someone. I've been with these guys for 20 years plus, but will be closing my account shortly. Hopeless

  • harrietorbell harriet (@harrietorbell) reported

    Hey Twitter void, has anyone using Mx prefixes had a mortgage approved? We're struggling to get a mortgage in principle with @santanderuk because Mx isn't in their dropdowns. Pls help!

  • Antlaarr Antlarr (@Antlaarr) reported

    @santanderuk having set aside time to speak about my mortgage I am disappointed that you dropped the call after one ring and know don’t answer. Customer for 20 years! #CustomerService

  • JMLeCornu J. M. LeCornu (@JMLeCornu) reported

    @santanderuk Hello, I found someone's lost debit card in the street this morning, can't get through to report it on the phone, can someone help please?
