Review of the Santander, Everyday Current Account:

Difficulties never properly resolved

2
There have been repeated problems and bugs which have never been resolved and continue to be an issue, and which employees didn’t seem to understand or to be able to explain. It has made everyday transactions more difficult. Reviewed on: 17th January 2023

Customer service

1
This is two out of two experience with Santander . Their service , feedback and quality is appalling , and extremely poor communication among different sections of the bank. Feel their feedback is unreal, repetitive, boring and extremely unprofessional. Throwing excuses and blaming each other for not doing the request or job properly. This behavior in unethical, unprofessional and causes dismay and resentment by the customer. Not tackling the real issue, importance of customer complaint and reason behind it and you feel their presence is artificial. Experience tells me that mistakes are human made and not computer generated. Reviewed on: 11th August 2020

Extremely helpful friendly bank

I find Santander suits my banking needs perfectly.I have been with them for at least 8 years now & they are so approachable & treat you with respect & compassion.I enjoy going into branch when I am in the town centre but equally I have found their on-line services have been great during the extraordinary recent months.

santander is a good banking company

I have never had any problems banking with Santander, I once got scammed and they managed to get the full amount of money that was taken back, I have been banking with Santander since the age of 16 and my mother also banks with Santander, it is a reliable bank. Reviewed on: 8th February 2020

Great value for money provided you don't overdraw

4
Free banking, including a pretty decent Web app and a very decent mobile app, means we can do all our banking online and still have access to a branch for special requirements. But don't go overdrawn - instead of charging interest at a percentage rate, Santander bills you £1 a day regardless of the amount (more if you're overdrawn by more than £1200), even if you have an arranged overdraft facility. From April 2020 this is changing to an eye-watering 39.9% EAR. Reviewed on: 3rd February 2020

Santander, great for customer service

5
We have been customers of Santander for over ten years, this is down to the excellent customer service we have always received when calling them for any issue. The IOS app is easy to use and helps me to keep on top of my finances, the updates never cause any bug issues for me and I can easily access my accounts wherever I am. Reviewed on: 28th January 2020

The best

Great team. The best for me and good people. Reviewed on: 28th January 2020

Does What It Says On The Tin

Good reliable bank/account. Had no issues. Reviewed on: 28th January 2020

Few Features... and few problems.

4
I've had this account now for many years and have yet to experience any significant problems. Communication is good - alerts I am nearing my limit etc., apps and associated online banking experience works. Reviewed on: 13th January 2020

Easy to use app and great cash back offers

5
Transferred from HSBC a few years back and very happy i did as the app is so much easier to use. It shows your updated balance of what's in the account but what you actually have left to spend which i find really helpful. Then the bonus you can get cash back on a number of places like restaurants or on clothes or beauty outlets... it's fantastic! Reviewed on: 9th September 2019
