Terrible customer service

1
Their charges are shocking! I used to bank with RBS and they never charged me for failed Direct Debits, etc. Santander do. They love it! One month a mistake by a company meant they took a quadruple payment off my account using CPA (as a rule of thumb never use CPA always opt for DD) which meant there wasn’t enough in the account to meet five DDs so I got 5 x £15 (£75) unpaid DD fees which then put me into an unarranged overdraft which got me a further £12 fee! When I told Santander they didn’t care and said they won’t refund me the fees because I once had a separate £12 fee refunded a year previous! Avoid, avoid, avoid. There are plenty other high street banks around. Reviewed on: 6th January 2018

Laughable APR but there is a reason

The APR is borderline insanity and the only reason I took it was because I have a junk credit file. However looking past the APR they are a very professional operation and they seem to care about their customers situations and will try to be flexible with payments when you are hard up.

Decent enough I guess

Their products and services aren’t exactly going to light the heather on fire but they’re good enough and hopefully stable with no loss on the investment. Reviewed on: 6th January 2018
