Santander 123 Current Account (discontinued) reviews (1232)

Review of the Santander, 123 Current Account (discontinued):

Top current account, beats other competitors for interest!

5
Top current account, with £20000 + saved you get around £40 a month after tax, no other current account will give you this much interest on your savings! You require to have 2 direct debits and pay in £500/month but this is fairly straightforward. You can also have one single and one joint account so with your partner you can gain more interest also. The online banking is easy to navigate and security level is high. Definitely recommend this account for anyone who wants to maximise interest! Reviewed on: 15th August 2015

So hard to set up an account.

So hard to set up an account. Couldn’t believe it. I had to wait in a physical bank twice for over an hour. And they kept sending me letters that were asking me to do things I’d done two weeks previous. Such a confusing, long and complex process I just gave up in the end. Reviewed on: 28th November 2024

Santander very good

Brilliant service, call centres excellent Reviewed on: 28th November 2024

Not a save bank! Lost a lot of money because of them!

Some time ago, I had Open Bank block my account there because suspicious debits were being attempted. A week after the account was blocked, Open Bank still allowed a large debit to go through from a fraudulent company. Unfortunately, there has been no compensation or apology to date. Never again open or Santander! Reviewed on: 17th September 2024

Average service - better out there

Great Bank

5
One of the few banks that offer an account with a low minimum pay in each month, I have banked with them for over 40 years and never had a problem, their staff are always polite and helpful too. Unlike many others they also have a lot of high street branches too. Reviewed on: 24th August 2024

Wouldn't swap!

I have had the account for a few years now. I get interest on my account (unusual for a current account) and get paid for certain direct debits. They always seem to be ahead of the game in increasing the interest rather than waiting, like a lot of other companies. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2024

I've had an account for several years now and it is very easy to use online and on the app and anytime I've had to contact customer service they have been great with me. I'd recommend Santander to anyone. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2024
