Santander 123 Current Account (discontinued) reviews (1252)

Don't get a lot of interest but I think you can still get a railcard if you are a student.

I haven't got a lot to say but I have been with Santander for several years because I opened a student current account with them when I started uni. This has now matured into a graduate current account but I still have quite a long time to pay off my overdraft. I do wish there were more branches so you could pay in cash and cheques easily. You get retailer offers as well so you can get cashback in some shops and the account is free. Reviewed on: 13th January 2019

Not only do you get interest on your balance, but also get paid interest on selected offers from time to time, when purchasing goods or services on well known brands and high street names. Reviewed on: 12th January 2019

Make money no brainer

Despite the £5 monthly fee, I always make more back from the utilities and retail cash back. Only had to call customer services a few times and always very helpful. Reviewed on: 11th January 2019
