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

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

Shambolic

Been with Santander for 13 years my card has been lost or stolen,hard to know after 3/4 days of trying to get through to Robots...I did eventually get through to their ' fraud' dept...I thought they would be assertive,willing to help &;above all friendly!! She was none of these I mean it was 9 o'clock in the morning bless her,probably had a row with her other half or a night on the lash! Either way her response in a broad liverpool accent was ' calm down'...Harry Enfield springs to mind! Reviewed on: 27th August 2023
