Santander 123 Current Account (discontinued) reviews (1252)

Best interest rate on the market

4
Having a regular monthly interest in your account is great. Much better when it was 3% but that's brevity for you. Getting cash back off bills is excellent too Reviewed on: 11th February 2018

Best of a bad bunch

4
I receive interest on my account, and they still have branches unlike my other bank Reviewed on: 10th February 2018

Absolutely Amazing

5
I will never change banks if my experience is like anything it has been previously. Never ONCE had a problem with Santander and they're a very helpful company. I feel extremely safe and secure with this bank, due to constant fraud checks and heavy security on online banking. They are trustworthy, which is a vital quality for any company to have. Amazing.

Complex idea made good

The 123 has been an attractive deal, with rules that allow customers to feel they are getting a good deal. Reviewed on: 9th February 2018
