Information about operational and security incidents
We are obliged to notify the Financial Conduct Authority if we become aware of a major operational or security incident which prevents our customers from using our payment services.
| In the 3 months between 1 April 2024 and 30 June 2024 | In the 12 months between 1 July 2023 and 30 June 2024 | |
| Total number of incidents reported1 | 6 | 29 |
| Incidents affecting telephone banking | 2 |
6 |
| Incidents affecting mobile banking | 3 | 10 |
| Incidents affecting internet banking | 3 | 12 |
¹the numbers shown are the total number of incidents reported by Santander UK and include cahoot, Santander personal current accounts and Santander business current accounts
Important notes on incidents preventing our customers from using our payment services:
The ‘number of incidents reported’ can include incidents that didn’t impact any of our servicing channels (Telephone, Mobile, Internet Banking) and didn’t prevent customers from using our payment services.
An incident that impacts more than one part of our business (Telephone, Mobile, Internet Banking) will only count as one reportable incident in the ‘number of incidents reported’, meaning the total number of incidents reported to the FCA may differ to the sum of the incidents impacting our servicing channels (Telephone, Mobile, Internet Banking).
Complaints data
Financial Conduct Authority rules require us to provide them with a report of our complaints data every six months. In certain circumstances, we are also required to publish a summary of our complaints data. The most recent summary is available here1
The Financial Ombudsman Service publishes its complaints data every six months. You can see their complaints data about us at http://www.ombudsman-complaints-data.org.uk/
