Student bank who saves us students

5
123 current account allows us students to go into overdraft without having to pay back any interest. It’s nice to know banks have our backs. Plus it comes with a 4 year rail card which is a life saver. Reviewed on: 3rd April 2023

DISAPPOINTED

1
I used to love being a Santander customer but this bank no longer has any use to me. I can’t get to a bank during banking hours so I pay my cash in the atm. Apparently there’s a limit to the amount of cash that can be paid in & I’ve reached that limit. How ridiculous to only allow a certain amount each year. Reviewed on: 3rd April 2023

Fantastic bank

Fabulous Bank

5
I have held a 123 Current Account with this bank for over 7 years. I use the mobile banking app to track all of my transactions and I have not once in 7 years had any issues accessing my banking information. If you are looking for a really reliable, clear, trustworthy bank then swap to Santander! Reviewed on: 31st March 2023
