Goodbye Santander Unable to withdraw my cash when needed. A real lack of proactive help from this bank to keep our business. All accounts now closed. Reviewed on: 4th April 2025

I love this account

5
Had it for a few years now and I've earnt over £1200 in cashback from the offers they have. Really simple and with a low monthly fee, this has been the best account I've ever had. Reviewed on: 10th November 2017

Ok if you like a straighforward way of banking

The interest went down, the fee went up, it's no longer the best Reviewed on: 8th November 2017

Good benefits providing you get more than £5 to offset the monthly fee

5
Great to get money for having certain debits which cancels out the £5 monthly fee. Would be a better account if monthly fee was reduced. Reviewed on: 8th November 2017

Good, friendly service at local branch but the 123 Santander is not as good as it used to be

4
I have had a Santander 123 account for a few years. I have always had good, friendly service at my local branch. However, I am considering a change of account as the interest rate has been lowered to 1.5% (previously 3%). With interest rates likely to rise this account is likely to become less competitive. Reviewed on: 8th November 2017

Easy to use and great returns

5
I have used Santander for years now, ever since they offered a fantastic new customer deal. I am impressed with the simplicity of their app and the ease at which I can transfer funds. I am also very pleased with the returns I have made on my money and will continue to be a loyal customer of theirs. Reviewed on: 8th November 2017

Easy Banking for Anyone

5
We switched to Santander back in 2015 when our current bank let us down. Everything from the paperwork to online banking has been effortless, I have signed up for alerts so they let me know if I'm getting low on funds without having to check in everyday Reviewed on: 8th November 2017

Good online services

Good online usability but useless on telephone for cust service Reviewed on: 8th November 2017
