Writing on Twitter, both Halifax and Lloyds tweeted the same message. It reads: “We know some of our customers are having problems logging onto Internet and Mobile Banking at the moment.
“We’re sorry for this and we’re working to have it back to normal soon.” It has not yet been revealed what exactly caused the problems for the banks’ online services.
Some customers have expressed their outrage at not being able to access their banking information online, with one user tweeting: “The Lloyds Banking app has been down for many customers all day. An hour you’d say is fair enough, but all day! What are their supposed technicians doing!?”
Another user wrote: “Lloyds app really taking the p***. Been down for like 4 hours. Fix up!” A third user wrote that they were unable to access the funds they needed for vital vetinary bills.
