A good value account

Santander provide good value banking and helpful service. Reviewed on: 2nd January 2019

Helpful Banking

4
I have found this account great for everyday banking, a debit card for everyday use, paying all my bills by direct debit, whilst earning cashback on the payments, small amounts, but all a saving, and peace of mind that all the bills are paid. Reviewed on: 2nd January 2019

Great current account interest rate

5
Santander 123 has consistently had a better interest rate with no risk and no locked in commitment compared to its competitors even though it has reduces its interest rate and increased its fee it is still in my opinion the most lucrative current account. Reviewed on: 1st January 2019

Helpful, informative and money saving!

I have a number of products with Santander and have found them to provide excellent service over the years. When the products you are on dont maximise your earnings they will meet with you to improve. The shop cash back is also an added bonus!! Reviewed on: 1st January 2019
