    There's quite a lot of negative feedback on Quidco/TCB cashback for 123.

    You and pindalek should perhaps found a club. None of you seems to actually have your facts straight about Santander, and specifically the 123 account, but you are making derogatory remarks about the account and the bank.

    What's wrong with you?

    Do you work for Santander?

    Nothing is wrong with me, I am just pointing out that neither you nor pinkdalek seem to have your facts straight on the Santander 123, but you are making derogatory remarks about the account and the bank.

    And no, I am not working for Santander, never have, and never will.This doesn't stop me from reading their website and their T&Cs.

    Can you read? Please quote me where I made "derogatory remarks about the account and the bank".

    In fact, where are these alleged derogatory remarks by pinkdalek?

    I've got an inkling, though I might be wrong, that pinkdalek is or was in some affiliated to Halifax.

    Which if true is very amusing that they feel in a superior position to poke fun at Santander. Their product range, whilst competitive is not exactly superior and their customer service is coming lower than Santander in most recent polls.

    His comment is not exactly "derogatory remarks about the account and the bank". And you have failed to show where I made such comments.

    Seems you're the cowboy here ;)

    Seems you like cowboys since you previously vehemently agreed with pinkdalek that Santander are "a cowboy bank"

    Not sure where this exchange would lead to if we continued it, and how it would help you getting a better understanding of how the 123 works, so I am bowing out and leave the field to you. Good luck.
