Review of the Santander, 123 Credit Card:

Simple to apply for

I went into the branch and I was pre approved for a 3 2 1 Credit card as I already have a 3 2 1 account it was simple and easy and I have been told it will be posted to me in a matter of days. Fantastic service, also gives me cash back on what I buy in the shops and I can have it for 6 months free of charge. Reviewed on: 28th March 2016

Not as good as it was

We were with Santander 123 Account and still have a credit card. We moved banks because the interest we received was often less than it cost to keep the account and we were offered better elsewhere. Nevertheless, we were with them for many years before we switched Reviewed on: 12th January 2023

Obnoxious

I contacted this company following a credit card application and subsequently made a complaint. Nobody got back to me and therefore I chased this. It turns out the complaint was never logged but the worst part of it was the customer service provided from Simon at the Liverpool office. He was the most unprofessional and obnoxious person I have ever spoken to in my life, and refused to take on part of my complaint. He constantly spoke over me and then terminated the call when I had the audacity to ask him to listen to me. You need to get a grip Santander your customer services are shocking and you should not be employing people like this! Like the person said on the escalated call, he made the company look bad!!
