Santander 123 Current Account (discontinued) reviews (1265)

Good around account

4
Have been with Santander for several years now with their 1-2-3 account and have found it a very competitive current account in terms of interest rates and the additional bonus of having cashback on my utility bills. I have also found their web site easy to navigate and to manage my money. Reviewed on: 26th March 2023

User Friendly App

Easy to conduct all financial transaction with their user friendly baking app Reviewed on: 26th March 2023

Good student benefits

They have good benefits when opening the account but their customer service is not as good. When in branch they are helpful but over the phone you can end up being passed around a lot of people. Reviewed on: 20th March 2023

The rewards weren't worth the effort expended to earn them but also the criteria for earning the rewards were complicated, and the bank wasn't easy to deal with Reviewed on: 19th March 2023
