Santander 123 Credit Card reviews (159)

Review of the Santander, 123 Credit Card:

good but could be better with cashback

3
They could offer more cashback on spending so it's beneficial Reviewed on: 22nd April 2025

Very good experience so far

4
I've had a 123 Crdit card for a few years now and touch wood, it's been great. I'm still earning more cash back than fee costs, and I had one experience of card details being cloned or stolen which Santander sorted out extremely quickly for me, which gives me great peace of mind using it! Foreign transaction costs are much better than on most credit cards too, which was a nice surprise :) Reviewed on: 30th May 2017

could be better although they have some good points Reviewed on: 30th May 2017

Goal-post Changing

I've had this card for about 2 years. It all started really well; I was earning decent 'free' money through the 1-2-3 cash back offer until they changed their terms. There's always been a fee of £3 per month but now they've capped it so the most you can earn is £9 per month (£6 net after charges) and that's only if you meet the three spending elements. It is what it is, I guess, but it's a shame as there are plenty of other credit cards that offer cash back without setting limits. Reviewed on: 30th May 2017

Great credit card

5
Brilliant card, easy to use, easy to understand and great rates Reviewed on: 30th May 2017

Paid for shopping!

4
For a small monthly fee I get a little cashback on my purchases each month. Cashback always exceeds the fee so works out nicely giving me a little extra to treat the kids. Reviewed on: 29th May 2017

Great cashback!

5
Receiving 3% cashback on our current account is fabulous and really helping us save when interest on savings accounts is so low. Have made over £2000 in cashback since opening the account Reviewed on: 24th May 2017

Cash back credit card

5
You can earn cash back on supermarket shopping and many department stores which can more than cover the annual charge of the card, especially if you are a big family. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2017

Great card, great benefits, easy to manage online

5
I'm a Santander CA customer and 123 customer also. Got this card and was added to my online account, allowing me to manage it easily. Great when purchases work towards my 123 benefits. Just wish I could get interest free forever haha Reviewed on: 19th May 2017

A good card

Happy with santander, always paid off in full and had no problems Reviewed on: 18th May 2017

123 SANTANDER CREDIT CARD

4
The credit card is good and the facility is handy and great if you shop ta the places where they give you cash back! However the one thing that annoys me with Santander is you cannot see whats pending in you account so I often miss calculate what I have left. Reviewed on: 12th May 2017
