Santander 123 Current Account (discontinued) reviews (1265)

Long Abbey National Support that's the secret to a very long standing tall supporter of Superb Santander

My local branches in Cumberland as well as Dumfries plus Galloway are second to none. Smart touch Cash Machine wise. Local retail branch service from colleagues and local staff is worth mentioning, recommended by word of mouth. Open a account and they will do the rest, keep it well they will by law do the rest. I am a permanent choice account holder. Reviewed on: 22nd December 2018

Regularly check alternative current accounts. This remains on top

Good cashback on spending

We don't feel like a number with Santander, their customer service is personable, helpful & friendly, always welcomed with a greeting when entering. The 123 account also gives us cashback on our household bills which is very welcome. Reviewed on: 17th December 2018
