Thanks Santander! 

Added to the fact that pasting the password is also prevented making a password manager hard/impossible to use and this is genius level security I just don't understand in place here.

I'm not convinced that an 8 character password as would be allowed is going to be all that strong under this policy. There are other factors that add some strength overall but no special characters seems a mighty odd decision.

The #SantanderUK debit-card has arrived after a third attempt and more than a month without a means of purchasing anything. 🙏🏻
Third attempt at obtaining a replacement: #DebitCard from #SantanderUK was due today at the latest (4-5 working days); but absolutely no surprise that it has not. Over a month without a payment-card. I could not buy Christmas food (nor any other food since), Christmas-cards, Christmas presents, nor post anything already purchased as no access to my cash!
One of the issues of not having a #SantanderUK #DebitCard for over a month is that payments have not been made to service-providers. Today I have downloaded most of c. 5,800 tracks in the #iCloud in case #AppleMusic decide to terminate the contract and delete all my stored items. Another inconvenience (one of many) due to #Santander’s inability to deliver a payment-card. Housemate has received his replacement, which was also swallowed by our local #ATM.
