TSB bank problems: Money Saving Expert Martin Lewis responds to payment delays

Payments into TSB accounts up and down the UK have been delayed overnight, leaving some customers without wages.

The issues are currently ongoing and have left some customers overdrawn and struggling to buy everyday essential items.

TSB has apologised to their customers in a tweet, but there is still no sign when customers money will arrive in their bank accounts. They have said however that no customers will be left out of pocket.

But founder of Money Saving Expert.com Martin Lewis has hit back at the bank.

He said: "Many customers will be struggling not to think that TSB stands for 'The Screwed Bank.'

Yet another major banking failure has left people worried about their wages and how they are going to pay their bills.

We are providing live updates on this ongoing TSB issue here.

"Even if this is fixed quickly, this type of service is simply not good enough.

"My call to those who are affected by this and angry and disillusioned with their bank is to stop b****ing, start switching.

"Right now you can get up to £175 to switch - and some banks which pay, including HSBC, M&S and First Direct, have better customer service ratings and less of a history of IT problems."
