Lloyds and Virgin Money customers have reported issues with their apps and online banking services this morning (Monday, September 2).
Hundreds of customers have reported issues with online and mobile banking through Lloyds and Virgin Money this morning on Downdetector.
While others have taken to social media to vent their frustration.
One Lloyds customer, posting on X (formerly Twitter) said: "@LloydsBank'd previously warned they were changing the App, looks like the first part of the roll out isn't going well
Another said: "Hi Lloyds, I’m also among the growing number of people who can’t see their transactions under the ‘All’ tab, on the new ‘improved’ app after this weekend.
"Might I suggest you forward these comments on to your tech people? Obviously something is wrong. Many thanks."
A third Lloyds banker commented: "Some subtle changes following customer changes! This is a joke.
"My account shows £00.00. No call back as promised after keeping the account logged on."
Virgin Money customers seemed just as disgruntled.
One person posted: "If I had a £1 for every time @VirginMoney website wasn't working I'd be rich enough to own them."
Another Virgin Money customer added: "@VirginMoney down again never known a banking app have so many issues !"
