How these attractive Santander UK current accounts work?
The 123 Bank Account pays interest on the credit balance at rates between:
- 1 per cent annually for £1.000.
- 3 per cent for a minimum of £3,000, up to a maximum of £20,000.

Santander account features
The account has the usual range of standing order and direct debit facilities. It can be managed online, but paper statements are also available, as is a chequebook, for those used to traditional banking methods. There is a cash daily withdrawal limit of £300, and for those in credit there are no transaction fees.
Cashback on direct debits
123 Account holders earn between one and three per cent cashback on various utility direct debits (at a UK address), and even on Santander mortgage payments, so most householders are likely to find that the account fee is much more than offset by cashback payments.
