LONDON, March 12 (Reuters) – Lloyds Banking Group said on Thursday it was investigating the ​causes of a glitch ‌that allowed customers to see each other’s transactions online, the latest in a series of technical problems ‌for ​UK banks ⁠embracing digital services.

“We’re sorry ⁠that some customers experienced an issue viewing transactions in the app for a short ​time this morning,” a spokesperson said, after media reports ⁠that customers using ⁠the bank’s apps were ​able to see other users’ ​transactions on their accounts.

Lloyds said the ‌issue had been resolved and that it was looking into what caused the problem.

Britain’s ⁠cross-party Treasury Committee of lawmakers said last year that nine top UK ⁠banks ‌and building societies had ⁠suffered at least 803 ​hours ‌of unplanned technology and ​systems ⁠outages between January 2023 and February 2025, blocking millions of customers from accessing their cash.
