    Santander UK Advocates for the Protection of Vulnerable Consumers

    The UK bank has demonstrated a commitment to accessibility and compliance to BS ISO 22458 by achieving the BSI™ Kitemark for inclusive service.

    Testimonial

    The People

    Santander UK

    Santander UK serves 14 million customers, 7 million of whom use their digital platforms, across 400 branches, as well as online and telephone services.

    In 2023, they demonstrated their commitment to inclusivity and enhanced services with the BSI Kitemark™ for inclusive service, providing fair and flexible solutions for vulnerable customers.

    The Challenge

    Helping the most vulnerable consumers have confidence in trusted services when they need them most

    Santander sought to validate progress through an independent body and against an internationally recognized set of standards, underpinned by the enhanced trust and quality of the BSI Mark of Trust.

    Santander UK is committed to supporting customers based on their unique needs and developed and implemented a Vulnerable Customer strategy. Initiatives including a bank wide ‘tell us once’ approach to recording vulnerability needs, a supported banking proposition, increased colleague capability, and inclusive services such as 'talking' ATMs for the visually impaired and SignVideo for British Sign Language users, were delivered.

    The Solution

    With BSI certification, Santander UK has demonstrated it meets the stringent requirements of BS ISO 22458, validating its inclusive strategy.

    Earning this mark not only showcases the organization’s commitment to increased accessibility but also demonstrates compliance with industry standards and regulations.

    The BSI Kitemark™ for inclusive service has given Santander UK an additional tool to evaluate and independently assess customer outcomes. It is committed to reviewing services, developing solutions and assessing performance to demonstrate continuous improvement in all customer outcomes.

    The Benefits

    Organizations that display the Mark of Trust signal a commitment to excellence and inclusivity, assuring clients of their dedication to serving all.
