  @santanderuk 40 mins on hold and still on hold actually sat in one of your branches who can’t help me after a call this morning to you advised me to go to a branch . Is this acceptable on any level . Anyone suggest a better more modern business bank I should be switching to ?

  @santanderuk I have just hung up after being on hold for the past 1 hour 23 minutes. You have the very worst history of phone times I have ever known. I wanted to sort my issue online but was unable to as your app is awful. You closed the local branch. You are beyond useless.

  @santanderuk I’m awaiting with interest the outcome of your investigation into my complaint. I trust you will agree with me that being on hold for 2h 5m to arrange a transfer of funds is outrageous. Your colleague from your customer service team didn’t think it was.

  @CCliftonvr46 @santanderuk Santander was down last people couldn’t access money, mothers couldn’t get nappies for their babies or people petrol in their cars. We apologise but are lines are busy🙄. More branch’s closing and every week working on their IT hindering access to your money. What is going on !

  @santanderuk Can someone help as a matter of urgency please? I paid for a service last Sat, you saw this as fraud and blocked all access to our online accounts! We have business banking and can’t pay our suppliers! I’ve been calling every day since Sunday and my accounts are still blocked! 🤬

  @santanderuk I didn’t realise they had such a big problem. Having narrowly missed being scammed a few days ago it would have helped if it hadn’t taken over 16 hours to be able to report it. The Live Chat option online is useless.

  @santanderuk Ant and Dec cause me profound discomfort. Is there any particular reason I should have to see them every time I log in?

  @santanderuk Thankyou to Hedder (sorry I’m unsure of his name spelling). After yet another account block when MiL tried to transfer her own money to her own account (not Santander) Unacceptable had to ring 3 times in a week about this but Hedder has it sorted #thanks
