Santander 123 Current Account (discontinued) reviews (1241)

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

Decent cashback current account

This was the market leader a few years back. The interest levels are creeping back up to a reasonable level and the cashback on utilities payments is decent. Getting there. Reviewed on: 1st March 2023

Reliable and have been using them for years. Would appreciate more competitive interest rates. Reviewed on: 3rd March 2025

Better than the Edge for my circumstances

I went from a current account with no benefits to this one. I would always get around £20-30 back in interest and cashback which always more than covers the fee. The main downside is the the rate of return is less with reduced cashback and higher fees. I have worked it out that based on my spending I am still better off sticking with this account rather than switching to the Edge account Reviewed on: 1st March 2025

Account Support

Fraudulent activity has been brought to my attention by the bank and resolved immediately Reviewed on: 1st March 2025

Helpful Banking

Have banked with them since I was 16, one of the few accounts that only require a minimum of £500 per month being deposited, which makes it accessible to most people. Branch staff are always really helpful. They also have good online and app banking. Reviewed on: 26th February 2025
