Review of the Santander, Everyday Current Account:

My trusted bank

5
I have been with Santander for over thirty years in all that time I have never had a problem the only reason I changed to the everyday account was because the 123 no longer suited my needs. I have had many products with Santander, a mortgage that I have paid off, savings accounts current accounts in all that time and different products they have performed outstanding in every respect.

Worst customer service ever received

My whole family used to bank with Santander. When my mum became to ill to look after herself, having spent 3 months in hospital with a dementia illness, I went to Santander to discuss options and put a hold on all her accounts until I could gain official power of attorney. Despite having as much relevant paperwork as possible, ID for us both and paperwork from the hospital including a letter from her consultant, Santander staff would not even talk to me. It took months to go through the power of attorney process and when it was awarded, I returned to Santander who had closed all mum's accounts but were still continuing to accept her DWP payments into them, to pay off arrears they explained. It took 3 years, my moving all our accounts - mum's, my own and my son's child account - elsewhere and involvement from the financial ombudsman to get Santander to admit their fault and repay all the money they had basically stolen. I would not touch this company with a barge pole now and advise anyone else not to use them. Reviewed on: 15th November 2016

I log in regularly to online banking and never have any problems. I use two other banks through work and often have problems with logging in or up to date information showing. Easy to transfer money between my accounts. Reviewed on: 14th November 2016
