    I just upgraded my account with Santander to a zero account, and it is suppose to pay 5% interest, but they told me i would only get 1% because i upgraded my account and wasn't a new customer. Even though it says nowhere on the site that it excludes existing customers.

    It's quite well hidden, but if you have a look HERE on page 4, it mentions that it's 5% introductory or 1% if an existing customer transferring.
