Santander Everyday Current Account reviews (204)

Does everything needed seamlessly and intuitively.

5
Have held this joint account for several years with no issues at all. Everything has run smoothly, so no need to involve Customer Support. The app works well and the features we need to use regularly all all easy to set up, manage and utilise. The biggest compliment I can pay is that we take it for granted because it just works; nothing has ever caused us headaches or to wish things were different. We trust them with our money.

I have been with Santander for over 15 years. Never had an issue once with them. When the branches were open near me - you always got a lovely welcome by the staff, always helpful,polite and professional, nothing is too much trouble Reviewed on: 17th April 2026

Local branches are shutting.

Have found local branches are shutting. Am aware I mostly do my banking on-line, yet have to now go to Glasgow if I need to speak to a branch member. Reviewed on: 17th April 2026

Very good bank, app works well. Still has a few branches open Reviewed on: 16th April 2026

Easy account switch

5
I swapped an account to Santander and was really surprised by how easy it was. I had a small issue with my online login details, but when I called, the staff I spoke were friendly and gave me clear instructions on how to resolve it. Reviewed on: 16th April 2026

Straightforward

5
Really easy to operate the account and link to others. Interest rates could be better, but that's the same everywhere. Branch is great, always busy but sadly closing so I will eventually take my custom to one where I can still go in to for face to face help. Reviewed on: 16th April 2026

I switched to Santander and the process was smooth with clear info. I find the app easy to use and have now opened a saving account with them too Reviewed on: 16th April 2026

I think I’m a lifelong Santande-er

5
I’ve been with Santander for years and years, it was the first account I had when I got my first job and although I’ve never asked them to be anything more than reliable - they have never let me down. I haven’t thought about moving my main account yet, and I don’t think I will Reviewed on: 16th April 2026

Avoid at all cost.

Avoid at all cost. Awful customer service! Removed my overdraft without notice or explanation (only after taking out a credit card with them-was not told it was one or the other as would have gone else where). Started recieving "managing debt" or "we're here to help" emails after using the credit card- despite never missing a payment with them or anyone else. excellent credit rating (that Santander has now severely impacted)and the "debt" being the use of their new interest free credit card). Raised this as a complaint 2 months ago was advised a manager would call me back, but still no response. Went into branch to raise it again and additional issues-they are now slowing down or witholding payments to other companies(payments that previously always cleared instantly are now taking over a week and not even showing as pending, direct debits are now leaving my account late despite having more than enough funds), this time was not given a chance to speak, was then handed a print out of a letter i should have received 2 months ago stating the complaint had been discussed/we couldnt come to an agreement(never happened). Tried to raise that as an issue in itself along with the rude member of staff I have just spoken to-was again refused the ability to speak to a manager and instead referred to the fraud department despite it having nothing to do with fraud other than on the part of Santander who are fraudulently with holding my money from any company I try to make a payment to. Long term customer but sadly the customer service is still getting progressively worse rather than better. Colleagues will cover for each other rather than trying to help customers Reviewed on: 2nd April 2026
