Still nothing on the Santander 123 Credit Card front
Just added my girlfriend's NatWest debit and credit card without issue. My Santander 123 Credit Card is not available from the bank apparently...

Successfully added my NatWest Visa Debit card, now to confuse the checkout operators at my local M&S store today
Hope Santander enable 123 credit cards sharpish. I like to keep as much money as possible in my 123 current for the interest haha!
Rebooted phone added natwest and nationwide under UK region. Watch double click not working though?
Up and running now but no sign of HSBC. People on twitter are kicking off about it. Hopefully they'll release a statement today.
NatWest card added without a hitch. Can't wait to take the plunge and buy some random stuff in the Co-op just to try it!
Yep looks like working and launched fine for the launch banks (except HSBC)
Annoying as a hsbc customer, not sure I can be bothered to switch banks as it might not be them, could always be Apple throwing their toys out and punishing HSBC for the tweet leaking the date...

Just phoned first direct,
They have obviously been drilled in what to say. When I said apple pay is now available he told me it wasn't by his generic script and that when it was I could register my interest.
When I told him apple had switched it on their end and that natwest was up and running he got all agitated.
First time I have ever heard a FD rep get rude.
Well done HSBC, well done!

Apple Watch doesn't seem to have updated... Nothing happens on double tap and my registered card isn't in Passbook. Anyone having the same issue?
That would suck if that were the case. Can't see why apple would jeopardise customers belonging to one bank.
Its early and I can't think of the exact example but I'm sure there's precedent (albeit from the Steve Jobs days) of them doing similar.
The annoying but is that clearly HSBC are almost ready as the T&Cs still appear when you try to add your card, they could at least change it to unsupported it's just rubbing it in now lol
All sorted with the Santander 123 CC now – not sure if it demanded to be set up under UK settings, but it worked first time when Apple Pay appeared.
It also appears that Passbook will only download the latest JSON when charging – I didn't charge my phone last night and never updated the JSON. Plugged it in for 20 minutes; it appeared.
