Another penned: “Good morning. Is your mobile banking app down. I have been kicked out of it and an error message displays.”
A third reported: “My Santander app has updated, I cannot log in now, just says. ‘Something went wrong’. I’ve tried using mobile data and WiFi. Uninstalled the app, reinstalled…nothing! Frustrating, when is this being fixed?”
“The new app doesn’t work on either of my devices, when I try to log in it says, ‘That didn’t work’, I have restarted my devices,” another said.
One customer said: “I cannot log in to the new version of the app and see I’m not the only one. Can’t even get to the login page despite deleting and reinstalling the app multiple times! Is this an app problem or wider issue? Useless!!”
GB News has seen problems with the new Santander “pilot” app.
When this app is selected, a pop-up displays: “Something went wrong. There was a problem with your request. For security reasons please start again.”
GB News understands there is not a problem with the old Santander app, meaning users which have not been switched over may be able to still log in.
A Santander spokesperson said: “We’re aware of an intermittent issue impacting a small number of customers when logging on to our app.
“We are working hard to fix the issue as soon as possible and are sorry for any inconvenience caused.”
Santander has been updating its mobile banking app, to bring customers “new features faster and provide a simpler, more secure and personal experience”.
In a notice on its website, Santander says they will update the mobile banking app “over the next few months”.
