Lloyds Bank and other banks’ online services appear to be down in a major outage.
The problem appeared to take down many high street banks at once. Halifax, TSB, First Direct, Nationwide and Bank of Scotland all appeared to be suffering from problems at the same time.
It comes after Lloyds and its other brands suffered similar issues earlier this month.
On Twitter, Lloyds said it was aware of the issue.
“We know some of our customers are having issues logging on to internet banking and our app,” it told affected users. “We're sorry for this & working to have everything back to normal.”
Nationwide said in a message on its website that "some incoming and outgoing payments are delayed at the moment", but that "everything else is working normally".
It said direct debits and standing orders were working as normal, but that payments were in a queue and would arrive soon, adding that customers did not need to do anything.
Meanwhile, First Direct confirmed on its website that both its mobile and online banking were "experiencing issues with payments".
According to service status website Downdetector, users were reporting issues with a number of other banks, but no others have so far confirmed any issues.
