Santander Bank US Bank account or service department,

Other bank product/service Account opening, closing, or management Massachusetts

As a loyal customer of Santander Bank, I am not happy that I had to hear from another Bank that Santander had a privacy breach. As a customer I would expect Santander to notify its customers, but instead I need to hear the news from another Bank that received a privacy breach letter from Santander. The letter another Bank received discussed the following : On - -, 2016 Santander Bank sent an image cash letter file to the FRB and the file did not have a correct alignment of the data to the image records and as a result, it is possible that check images from the file were viewed by third parties or unintended recipients of the check images. Being a resident of the state of Massachusetts where privacy is taken extremely serious and being a customer of Santander, you would think the Bank would notify its customers that such event occurred or let them know the event occurred and their information is safe whether an image of their check or information was viewed by a third party or not.


my - checking account with no reason on why the product was being cancelled even after I asked to be contacted. They even went to the level of being unfair and deceptive in terms of only offering $150.00 to new customers of their simply right checking product which is what they are putting me into after closing their extra20 product and told me that existing customers do not qualify. So they are forcing me into a product I do n't want and not offering me a bonus because I am not a new customer. None of this makes sense. You would think that they would offer existing customers something after forcing them all out of a product. You would even think they would grandfather customers into the product to not lose them or get to the point where a complaint has to be filed because the Bank is becoming unfair and deceptive to its customers. If Santander wants to win my business back they should be notifying their customers about this breach and always honoring their customer requests to keep them in products they are discontinuing. The Bank should be fair to its customers and not try to deceive them as well. If they can not do this they are just turning into a - - and will wind up in the news in a negative light for being unfair and deceptive. I am sure I will not be the only customer to complain or approach the news stations on this topic. I hope the CFPB and regulatory agencies can assist in this matter and force Santander to clean up its act.
