In a statement, TSB apologized for the disruption and assured customers that they are working to resolve the problem as quickly as possible. The bank has advised customers to check their website and social media channels for updates.
This isn't the first time TSB has faced technical difficulties. In 2018, the bank experienced a major IT outage that lasted for days, affecting millions of customers. This latest incident highlights the importance of robust IT infrastructure and backup systems for financial institutions.
Customers have taken to social media to voice their frustration. Many are reporting they're unable to access their accounts online, make payments, or check their balances. Some have even been unable to withdraw cash from ATMs due to the outage.
It's unclear when TSB will fully restore its services. The bank has not yet provided an estimated time frame for a resolution.
Here are some things you can do if you're affected by the TSB outage:
- Check the TSB website and social media channels for updates.
- Contact TSB customer service if you have any questions or concerns.
- Consider using alternative banking methods, such as cash withdrawals or using a different bank's ATM.
This outage serves as a reminder of the importance of having backup plans in place in case of unexpected disruptions to your financial services.
This incident will likely raise concerns about TSB's IT security and reliability. The bank will need to address these concerns and take steps to ensure that similar outages do not occur in the future.
