Good account which pays interest

Ideal for all as it can easily take care of ones direct debits and you get money back on them also. Reviewed on: 25th November 2018

Works well

We get the benefits, no messing about, filling in redemption forms. Simple and no hassle. Sorry, that is what I want. Reviewed on: 23rd November 2018

Great bank indeed

I've banked with Santander for over 10 years and they've been always very helpful despite my financial difficulties of the past. Recent updates to the android app made it very beneficial and useful. Reviewed on: 23rd November 2018

Never had a problem with Santander every branch I've been to they have always been great and very helpful can't see anything that would make me even think of leaving them Reviewed on: 22nd November 2018

Fantastic account

5
Santander 123 Current account is a great product which allows me and my wife to make some decent cashback through monthly house bills: 1% on water rates and council tax (plus our mortgage as it is provided my Santander). 2% on utilities, and 3% on mobile bills, braodband and tv packages. On top of this, monthly interest is also paid in depending on the bank account balance. Top product, can't complain at all! Reviewed on: 22nd November 2018

Great product

ticks all the boxes

ottimo

Eccezionale e servizio rapito e sicuro Reviewed on: 22nd November 2018

Easy to use and simple to transfer and setup

4
On transferring to Santander I was extremely pleased with the service provided and the smoothness of the transfer. The difference between Santander and RBS is night and day, especially with the online banking service and especially the interest rates provided. The only disappointing thing is that although the national rate of interest has gone up Santander have not repaid their customers original faith when joining and returned the interest rate to 3% as was originally advertised nor have they reduced the £5 per month fee back to £3 per month.
