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

Fantastic

Love using the 123 current account, great that you can get cashback on your everyday bills that you would be paying for anyway! Also good if you combine with the 123 credit card, as you can get cashback on your everyday purchases! Reviewed on: 21st April 2016

Worth the monthly fee

I have had the 123 account for around 5 years now and have earnt myself over £1000 in cashback from my mortgage and paying utility bills from the account. I have always found the customer service to be very good and the staff in branch extremely helpful and friendly Reviewed on: 8th November 2018

Effortless

Great account, excellent cashback and interest. No effort to set up, I couldn't be happier. Reviewed on: 8th November 2018

123 Account

Interest on your current account up to £20,000 better than most savings accounts and cashback on some purchases with the 123 credit card. I have had this account for a number of years and although the terms are less favourable than when I first took it out it is still a very competitive account. Reviewed on: 7th November 2018

Excellent

This is an excellent account and there have been no problems using this account. Recommended! Reviewed on: 7th November 2018

Santander a Bank for all people

I have been with Santander for 3 years as a personal customer and the services I have received has been exceptional Reviewed on: 6th November 2018

123 Works for me

For those of you who want a decent account that gives something back for a small fee then this is one of the best accounts, you don’t need to have a vast salary paid in unlike many other accounts, this one is a minimum of £500 a month, you get cash back on direct debits to major utility suppliers & interest on your balance. Good website, I don’t get bombarded with loads of rubbish emails & they also offer rewards on using your debit card at certain retailers, just plain good all round service. Reviewed on: 6th November 2018

Great cashback perks

Getting £10 per month cashback on my mortgage payments each month, such a bonus Reviewed on: 6th November 2018

Very happy with this account and the level of service

Pleased with the level of service at Santander. I have been very happy with this bank for many years, they are always happy to help with any problems and in fact most things can be resolved on line if you have that facility enabled. Nice to be able to view your account at any time of day or night to suit you. Reviewed on: 6th November 2018

Excellent

Great account being able to get interest on 20k plus cashback on DDs and various companies. Reviewed on: 6th November 2018
