British newspaper “The Times”.

The double transactions were deducted directly from the bank and “no customer was ever paid out of pocket,” Santander emphasized, noting that it was working “with several banks across the UK to recover” the amounts involved.

The beneficiaries of the remittances were mainly the workers or suppliers of some client company of Santander, who thus received their salaries or double payments.

Transfers were made to accounts in several other British banks, which, according to “The Times”, complicates the recovery of funds.

Santander said it had “quickly identified and corrected” the planning issue that led to the wrong payments, adding that it had opened “bank error recovery procedures” with recipient banks.
