Santander 123 Current Account (discontinued) reviews (1229)

best account ever

good interest rate on a high balance and also cashback on certain direct debits. Easy to manage in branch and online Reviewed on: 29th August 2015

Perfect to manage every aspect of it online which is exactly what I want.

I have been with Santander since they were Abbey National and that was simply because my Nan already was and she was the one with me when I opened my first bank account! Over the years, they've always had products to meet my needs and pro-actively suggested the 123 Account to me a few years back. Seamless switch from the current account I already had and I make a few pound on it every month so nothing to lose. I also love the fact that my 123 Account is linked up online to all my other accounts - savings, ISA, kids accounts. Would definitely recommend based on my experience. Reviewed on: 28th August 2015

great interest rate

Helpful staff and easy to use both in branch and online.They can be a bit too hot on suspected fraud if anything seems slightly out of the ordinary, but better safe than sorry Reviewed on: 28th August 2015

Great for bonus money!

Found out about the Santander 1-2-3 Account some time ago and signed up - not only does it have a great interest rate on money in the account but it will also pay you. Cashback is received on many Direct Debits that you set up - anything from Council Tax to your phone bill. These bills have to be paid so may as well make a little out of it. You need to pay in £500 per month to qualify and there is a £2 month bank charge but if you have a number of Direct Debits set up then the rewards more than cover the charge.

great account

Was in 2 minds about opening this accountdue to the bd press Santander hve received in the past. So glad I did do it - staff helpful and friendly and a good interest rate too Reviewed on: 28th August 2015

exceptional

I have used the 123 salamander for just over a year now. The service is exceptional. It has improved my money management skills. The app is easy to navigate and their customer service is next to none Reviewed on: 27th August 2015

Great account

Must be one of the best accounts around. A great rate of interest and great service in branch Reviewed on: 27th August 2015

Great Bank Account

I am really happy with our 123 account, we changed out account to the 123 when it first came out. The interest rate is great at 3% if you have over £3000 in the account (Interest paid up to £20k). We have all the house bills coming out this account so we get a good amount of money paid back every month, it easily covers the £2 per month fee. I have already recommended this account to other family members who are also really happy with it. Reviewed on: 27th August 2015

Great banking

friendly helpful staff. Online banking easy to use and very secure. Also pays a good rate of interest Reviewed on: 27th August 2015

Great banking experience

I was already a Santander customer, and finally made the plunge to move to their 123 account last year. Now I wished I had done this earlier. There is a monthly fee of £2 but in return I am getting cash back on my direct debit payment for council tax, water rates, electric, gas, mobile phone, broadband and phone services varying from 1% to 3% on top of that there is up to 3% interest on balances. up to £20,000. Must be the best account around as earning money to use the direct debits, I would certainly recommend this account, Reviewed on: 27th August 2015
