I recently upgraded my bank account and saver account to Edge accounts, and it was an easy and pleasant experience thanks to MANDY MYERS, who was very helpful, cheerful, efficient and professional.
Wish everybody could be like this !
Thanks :)

Do not use they dont want your custom unwilling to be helpful in any way bottom of the barrel customer service and care. Use any other bank than this. Iv only had to deal with them this week and it’s lead to me closing my account with them.
This process was so easy. I went in the app, offered me a credit card. It couldn’t have been any more easier. The offer was amazing, so I would recommend Santander credit card to anybody

Not smooth. Got problems getting accessing/registering for online account access due to Santander backwards banking system. Took at least 30 mins to waiting for each call to address an issue and then pass on to others where each hope is at least another half an hour. Once finally got through to someone who knows what to do (others just brush you off and ask you to visit a branch - which when asked logically couldn’t make any diff) then the person asked me to wait for another week. Why … it is a batch back office process which is only carried out once a week on Thursday!!! Trust me I wanted to then cancel the Switch and then remember why I left the bank a decade ago. But due to the Switch was in flight, cancelling it now would cause mayhem to all in/out standing order/direct debit!!! Not good at all

The process to switch seems to have gone smoothly.
BUT
Santander has kept a long-closed account live on its system so that access to my new account is blocked. Having phoned to find out the problem, it will take over a week to get a new access code to me. Meanwhile, I can't use my account.... and I have to hope regular payments etc are going on in the background and my funds aren't compromised.
