Santander text me an OTP (One time pass) code if I make online purchase Lloyds don't.
The Santander system has been slow to deliver pass codes on several occasions, so the code does not arrive within 10 minutes; you can re-request the code 2 times before the purchase is blocked, which is what happened on my most recent attempt, to purchase car vehicle tax on gov.co.uk site.
Has anyone abandonned trying to use Santander for online purchases ?
..... Contacting Santander, they said it was the Vendors/gov problem, and although Sant person I finally spoke to had details of the transaction, he wasn't able to clear explanation that their system was not responsible ... overloaded ... poor implementation ....
(putting aside that they have a telephone response system that gives no idea of queue time, or offers any callback - Amazon/Ebay - OK - a less secure environment - have that licked now)
