Two major service disruptions reported by high street banks.
It seems like Lloyds and Halifax are facing some difficulties on this Monday morning. Reports have come in that both banks, which are actually part of the same Lloyds Banking Group, are experiencing service outages. This news comes after Barclays also encountered major problems over the weekend.

Customers of Lloyds and Halifax have been struggling with their banking apps, with many claiming they are unable to make or receive payments. It's quite unfortunate that this issue has emerged, especially since Barclays had a similar problem just a few days ago. The bank had acknowledged that it was due to a technology issue, which left many customers unable to access their funds or make payments.

According to Downdetector, a website that monitors service outages, the problems for Lloyds and Halifax began at around 7am this morning. It seems like several hundred people have already reported issues. As of now, Lloyds has not released a statement confirming the cause of the problem. However, they have been responding to customers who have raised concerns on social media.

One customer took to X to express their frustration, and Lloyds replied saying, "We are aware that some customers are having trouble making or receiving payments. We apologize for the inconvenience and are working towards resolving this issue as soon as possible." Another customer tweeted at them, saying, "@LloydsBank we are now massively overdrawn as payments have been made, but our standing orders for money transfer haven't gone through. Are you going to charge us penalties for this, even though it's your system that is broken?!" It's clear that customers are feeling the impact of these service outages.

Halifax, on the other hand, has been responding to direct complaints on social media with an identical reply. It's good to see that both banks are actively addressing their customers' concerns and working towards a solution.
