Online outage monitor Down Detector received over 600 reports from Lloyds Bank users from 8am this morning with many complaining that they could not see any transactions in the app.

The Downdetector website said the Lloyds outage was "possibly related to issues at Microsoft Azure".

Lloyds acknowledged the issue in a post on Twitter.

The problem follows a technical glitch with NatWest's banking app on Friday that left some customers unable to make payments or fund transfers.

Down Detector this morning is showing similar spikes about technical issues with banking apps from Virgin Money and Nationwide amid ongoing problems with the NatWest app.
