Santander credit card

Santander credit card

Can you continue to have a Santander credit card if you close down your Santander current account? If so, could the current D.D for the card be moved to the new bank account and keep paying the card bill each month. I have looked through the t&c and can’t see anything but I could have missed something.

Thanks for any help.
I choose the rooms that I live in with care,
The windows are small and the walls almost bare,
There's only one bed and there's only one prayer;
I listen all night for your step on the stair.

  • Plenty. Most credit cards are not dependent upon the existence of a current account.

    Some, like my Nationwide Select credit card do.

    I kept my Santander credit card when I closed my Santander current account, and simply created a DD with my replacement current account provider.

    @Gerry1 response summed it up in fewer words really.
