Lloyds and Halifax online banking apps reportedly down with customers missing payments and wages - live updates

Customers at two of the UK's biggest banks are reporting issued with their apps on Monday morning. According to DownDetector, the problems started with Halifax and Lloyds around 7am, and are affecting customers across the country.

As of 7.40am this morning, 379 people had flagged problems with Lloyds online and mobile banking. The majority of the complaints relate to issues transferring funds between accounts.

A Lloyds Bank customer service agent acknowledged on X some customers are having issues with payments, saying: "We know some customers are having issues making or receiving payments. We're sorry for this and are working to have everything back to normal."

Around 300 customers have reported issues with the Halifax app.

It comes after Barclays advised customers to contact food banks over the weekend after a major IT glitch left some locked out of their accounts.

The bank has warned that some customers may see an outdated balance, and payments made or received may not show following the initial outage on online and mobile banking.
