Do you pay a fee to withdraw cash from ATM with Santander 123 debit card. Can someone also point me in the direction of T & C's covering this as I can't find it?

Looks like if you pay £500 a month into your account then it's free.

As Santander 123 account holder you must have paid £500 on your account each month.
To avoid conversion fee you will need to use your debit card in Santander Cash Machine (not other banks cash machines) In Spain.0 -

By MSE classification it's one of debit cards from hell for spending abroad.0 -
Thank you very much for your answers. Very helpful - especially to make sure to use Santander Only ATM.0
