Banking Glitch Sends Customers into the Great Couch‑Escape
Monday morning, a tech mishap turned the world of online banking into a modern‑day “Where’s my login?” saga. Customers of the big three—Lloyds (Halifax), RBS, and NatWest—found themselves locked out of their accounts, causing a brief stir akin to an impromptu “out‑of‑office” rally.
What Went Wrong?
- Lloyds Banking Group (incl. Halifax): Reports of sluggish access to internet banking began circulating early in the day.
- RBS/NatWest: A handful of users stumbled over the login gate, only to find it closed. Their staff swiftly apologized and confirmed all services were restored.
Official Responses
“A small number of our customers experienced brief login difficulties this morning,” a RBS/NatWest spokesperson said in a calm “we’re fixing this” tone. “Everything’s back online—thanks for your patience!”
Similarly, Lloyds’ statement read: “We’re aware some of you had issues with online banking. We’re on it and will have things back to normal shortly.”
All Services Back in Play
By late Monday morning, the glitch had been ironed out and customers could return to their digital vaults without further ado.
