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

Stay Well Clear of Santander

The worst bank and customer service on the planet! I have had a lock placed on my account and the reason they gave me was that i have used contactless payment too much. Now considering i have spent the last 3 weeks in Singapore and never use the card as i dont want to pay their extortionate rates. I transfer from the bank to Wise. Now they have blocked it and tell me i have to buy something in Singapore and put my pin number in to release the block. Its the only way i can unblock it! Santander are a joke and i shall be closing the account down because of this. Complete failures! still waiting on the line for the fraud team to unblock this bar and been waiting over an hour so far. i am stuck in Singapore without access to my money.

Early days...

Started very recently, so little by way of experience here. So far, so good. Reviewed on: 27th February 2024

Decent for a while

It was a good product back in the day, when it would give a decent interest rate. Through time, it fell back against the competition. Reviewed on: 22nd February 2024
