Santander Chat ♨️

From what I can tell, they don’t want us to download it unless we’ve been invited to the trial (but they clearly aren’t that bothered both that). They seem to be releasing a few features at a time to test them out.

Well you can set up trials like that - odd they didn’t.

They might turn it on and cut off anyone who hasn’t isn’t on it at that point.

They probably just aren’t that bothered. It’s one sentence in the description and it’s a please rather than a “do not”.

I wasn’t invited but logged in fine.

Yeah. Same as everyone else here I think. If they were that bothered, they would have put in actual methods to stop anyone just signing up.

I wonder if later you will be able to use your own custom photo for log-on? Would make it harder to spoof the app no?

Somewhere I saw an option that would mean you could upload your own photo. Don’t have a clue where though

It showed up on first install.

Interesting - I did not get that option - a/b testing maybe?

Also even though you cannot turn on notification if you go into the menu >> Setting >>> Personal Settings >>> app permissions >>> you can enable notifications here. if it does something I have no idea…

Looks like they just renamed the 123 Lite to Edge

Yes, its a replacement for the Santander 123 Lite account which has been withdrawn.

It has a higher monthly fee then the Lite and different cashback rates.

Interesting you can get this offer even if you already have a current account with them.

Lloyds Group allows you to as well, just needs to be a paid for account.

Hum… Do I ditch chase or monzo for the easy cash…

Chase can’t be used as not part of CASS.

You won’t be able to reopen a monzo account for a long time or for ever, unsure what the workaround is :eyes:

Alas I am ineligible as have already previously benefited from a switch offer from Santander.

Monzo.

As Carl said, Chase isn’t part of the switch scheme.
