Lloyds Banking group’s online customers have expressed frustration after a second day of problems with online and app banking.
An outage on Wednesday morning prevented customers from logging into their accounts. At one point the group, which includes Lloyds Bank, the Halifax and Bank of Scotland, assured customers that the glitch had been resolved.
However, complaints from customers continued on Twitter on Thursday.
A spokesperson for Lloyds confirmed the banks were still experiencing “intermittent issues” and were investigating what caused the glitch.
He said: “We are working hard to restore a full service for our customers and apologise for any inconvenience caused.”
The group said it is looking to resolve the issue “as soon as possible” prompting one Twitter user to reply “yes, you have been saying that but nothing seems to be happening.”
Another user said: “Still can’t access internet banking, how much longer? It’s been down all day.”
The banking group has not revealed what has caused the problems or how many customers were affected.
Lloyds Banking Group serves 22 million current accounts customers, making it one of the largest retail bank in the UK.
