Difficulties never properly resolved

2
There have been repeated problems and bugs which have never been resolved and continue to be an issue, and which employees didn’t seem to understand or to be able to explain. It has made everyday transactions more difficult. Reviewed on: 17th January 2023

Account locked

1
Been with Santander for about 8 years and no issues, the first time I attempt to move a large amount they lock the account. I waited on hold for over 40mins and finally got through all the security checks and the reasons for my transfer only to be put on hold and eventually cut off. I started the process again and finally got through only to get to the exact same point and cut off again after nearly another hour on the call. Tried a 3rd time managed to ensure they didn't cut me off, but waited even longer on hold only to be told the account was flagged as 'Under review' and they couldn't do anything. She also couldn't tell me what that meant or what the next step was. Got told to wait 48hrs and someone might call me back. The transaction is time sensitive and if it doesn't complete on time Santander are looking at a claims request for upwards of 90k so see you in court idiots. Joke of a company. Reviewed on: 12th August 2022

Easy to use app for everything

4
I use the app for almost everything I want to do. And the bits the app can't do I get done on the online banking. Given 4 stars because they sometime block payments which I appreciate is a security measure but even after verifying the transaction they still return the payment to me after a few days. It would be good if they either complete the transaction after verification or return the money immediately. Reviewed on: 31st March 2022

Best customer service both in branch or on line
