Santander Everyday current account reviews (208)

Abysmal service

Used the current account switching service. I tried to cancel when they didn’t send me a code to verify my ID that actually worked, but was too late. Now my current account has been emptied into the Santander one, 8 days ago. They still haven’t verified my ID, I can’t log on to the app or online banking, can’t activate my card, can’t see my balance or check payments. I’ve called their customer support number and essentially they couldn’t care less, not one person in that call centre seems to have the ability to do anything. Reviewed on: 13th October 2026

DO NOT SWITCH TO THIS BANK!!

I did the Santander switch and there was an issue with my ID (unsure what issue) so they took my money from my previous bank and blocked the new Santander account. I took my ID straight into branch as requested but my account has been blocked for two weeks now! I have absolutely no access to my money. I keep calling up and they keep telling me that there’s nothing they can do as it’s with the application team pending review. It’s absolutely disgusting that they can just withhold your money for such a long period of time. I explained to them that the money they have is my wages and is the only money I have access to so as a result I have no money for food etc… I’m just told to wait. Absolutely disgusting. DO NOT SWITCH TO THIS BANK! Reviewed on: 28th September 2026

Banking made easy (And fun)

I have been using Santander's Everyday Current Account for many years now. My online account is very user friendly, and is easy to understand. This is important for budgeting, and keeping tabs on your transactions. There are sections for communication and to download statements. It's good to know they also offer 'paper free' options. Less trees to cut down, is always a good thing. I've seen offers to leave your bank to go to another for financial rewards, but I'm sticking with this one. It's like having a trusty old friend at your side. The only negative I can say is they got rid of email/text alerts to tell you a large sum has been put in your account. These notifications were handy, without having to log in to check. All in all, a good bank. Reviewed on: 30th April 2026

Does everything needed seamlessly and intuitively.

Have held this joint account for several years with no issues at all. Everything has run smoothly, so no need to involve Customer Support. The app works well and the features we need to use regularly all all easy to set up, manage and utilise. The biggest compliment I can pay is that we take it for granted because it just works; nothing has ever caused us headaches or to wish things were different. We trust them with our money.

I have been with Santander for over 15 years.

I have been with Santander for over 15 years. Never had an issue once with them. When the branches were open near me - you always got a lovely welcome by the staff, always helpful,polite and professional, nothing is too much trouble Reviewed on: 17th April 2026

Local branches are shutting.

Have found local branches are shutting. Am aware I mostly do my banking on-line, yet have to now go to Glasgow if I need to speak to a branch member. Reviewed on: 17th April 2026

Top bank

Very good bank

Very good bank, app works well. Still has a few branches open Reviewed on: 16th April 2026

Easy account switch

I swapped an account to Santander and was really surprised by how easy it was. I had a small issue with my online login details, but when I called, the staff I spoke were friendly and gave me clear instructions on how to resolve it. Reviewed on: 16th April 2026
