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

Very good account with rewards

Very good account with rewards, but you do need to pay in a certain ammount each month, so not necessarily useful if you are retired. Reviewed on: 23rd June 2016

Excellent account

Very excellent account with no issues Reviewed on: 5th January 2022

TRULY THE WORST

This is the most awful bank in the world period. Dont even go near them. I did an online transfer and they locked out my account and after 5 calls with one hour wait each timie, and two days still dont know when it will be done. It is being reviewed by back office and within their time ranges they say. Cannot say when it will be done. Their security question asks for a recent transactin amount! with your online account locked out Reviewed on: 24th November 2021
