Good bank with a decent interest rate

If you use this account to its full potential (have the max 20k in the account) you will earn fantastic interest every month. Customer service is pretty good and never really had any issues. Reviewed on: 28th December 2019

Branch Closures

2
The service and knowledge about their products or changed to their products has been very poor over the last few years. It appears due to branch closures , the staff are too busy to provided a satisfactory level of service to their customers. Reviewed on: 27th December 2019

Good Santander customer service

5
I have banked with Santander for many years and their customer service in their branches is excellent Reviewed on: 17th December 2019

Pays for itself

5
We pay £5 a month as a fee for the account. We receive £10 per month for having our mortgage with Santander. Around £6 per month cashback for utility and phone bills. And £25 a month for keeping £20k in the current account as it pays 1.5% interest. Much better than any ISA or savings account in my opinion. Reviewed on: 16th December 2019
