    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 !!

    @santanderuk apparently there’s a problem with my account and I have to contact you urgently - but no one will answer the phone!!

  • esorlem Sam Walsh (@esorlem) reported

    @santanderuk clearly Santander like most other banks in the UK only want to exploit “customers” or rather a better phrase would be cash cows to pay for their poor service, the best description for theM is shoddy or useless

  • vanWildgoose Drew van Wildgoose (@vanWildgoose) reported

    @santanderuk 90 minutes and counting I've been waiting to get through to speak to someone in your call centre. 90 minutes!! What an utterly useless service!

  • emporiapatterns EmporiaPatterns (@emporiapatterns) reported

    @BBCWatchdog my parents have had nearly 10k stolen from their bank and @santanderuk are refusing to refund it. Please can you help

  • craigbutcher Craig Butcher (@craigbutcher) reported

    And to top it off, @santanderuk’s interface hasn’t changed for many years resulting in cognitive issues of what I need to be doing. Looks like I’m going to move elsewhere. I cannot handle the stress of this.

  • EmBlaaah 𝔼𝕞 ♡ (@EmBlaaah) reported

    Hey @santanderuk how about you inform customers when you block their accounts so they know what’s happening? I’ve spent over an hour on the phone trying to get through for my blocked online banking and I’m clueless as to why you’ve blocked it! Still haven’t got through either

  • RyeBreth RB (@RyeBreth) reported

    @santanderuk have blocked my online account access for 'security purposes' literally seconds after transferring money to a funeral directors! And guess what? I can't contact anyone out of hours to sort it! #Disgraceful #PoorCustomerSupport #Stressful

  • Ianhart77019890 Ian hart (@Ianhart77019890) reported

    @santanderuk is anyone working in your call centres today? You decided to just block all access to my account and no one will answer the phones at all. Been waiting an hour on hold now to ask you to please let me access my own money

  • Bones2029 Bones (@Bones2029) reported

    @santanderuk How about you conentrate on providing a good banking service!

  • dannybster Dan Bruce (@dannybster) reported

    @santanderuk is there a problem with UK phone lines? I’ve been on hold for 1h 15m so far.
