Goodbye Santander Unable to withdraw my cash when needed. A real lack of proactive help from this bank to keep our business. All accounts now closed. Reviewed on: 4th April 2025

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

Good - but used to be better

4
The best thing about Santander 123 is that I get interest on my balance. There's also cashback on some items. It all add up but must be offset against the monthly fee. At the moment this is working form me but it's a close thing. Careful management needed. Reviewed on: 11th April 2023

Better than the Edge for my circumstances

4
I went from a current account with no benefits to this one. I would always get around £20-30 back in interest and cashback which always more than covers the fee. The main downside is the the rate of return is less with reduced cashback and higher fees. I have worked it out that based on my spending I am still better off sticking with this account rather than switching to the Edge account Reviewed on: 1st March 2025

Helpful Banking

Have banked with them since I was 16, one of the few accounts that only require a minimum of £500 per month being deposited, which makes it accessible to most people. Branch staff are always really helpful. They also have good online and app banking. Reviewed on: 26th February 2025

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
