Santander 123 Current Account-Joint Account Maximum?

I have two S123 current accounts, my wife has one. These are all sole accounts, not joint. Is it permitted for my wife to open a second account in joint names, with me as the other party, or not?

Might it jeopardise one of the sole accounts you have already, thereby forcing you to convert one of them to a joint instead?0

Which clause(s) in the T&Cs / Key Facts would support your assertion?kingrulzuk wrote: »Yes you and your wife can open a joint account0 -
I have two sole accounts, as the second account preceded the change in rules. My reading of the T&C's is that (under the new rules) you can have a maximum of two accounts, one of which must be a joint account.
Therefore my wife could open a second account (a joint account), but not with me. I have asked Santander to clarify and await a response.No free lunch, and no free laptop0 -
