Lloyds and Halifax down as thousands of customers locked out of online banking
LLOYDS and Halifax have gone down with thousands of customers locked out of mobile and online banking.
Both banks are suffering an outage with over 2,000 customers experiencing issues, according to Downdetector.
Around 60% of Halifax customer complaints relate to problems with mobile banking and 30% with online banking.
Meanwhile, around 67% of Lloyds Bank complaints relate to customers having issues with online banking and 32% with logging in via mobiles.
The vast majority of customers reporting issues are based in London, Manchester, Cardiff and Birmingham.
The Sun has approached Lloyds Banking Group, which operates both Lloyds Bank and Halifax, for comment.
Fuming customers have posted on X, formerly Twitter, raging at the outage.
One said: “Lloyds Bank app down again?”
Another Lloyds customer said: “The app doesn’t work. It keeps logging me out and is saying technical difficulties.”
A third added: “Same here, just keeps returning me to green screen.”
It comes just months after Lloyds, Halifax, First Direct and Nationwide were all hit with a major outage.
