Overseas Transfer of Monies

The online website was always easy to follow and its security checks made you feel that they were concerned about its members.
The Direct Channels member who assisted me on my recent overseas call was very polite knowledgeable and helpful; (Anumeha Kumar).

I / we had a problem with creating payees. Phillipa from customer services was exceptionally helpful to the extent that we tried her fix suggestions and traced the problem to the IOS Safari program. This was rectified and Phillipa stayed on the telephone throughout the whole problem until rectified and then the fix was tested and confirmed. Special thanks are due and thank you Santander International.
Happy customers.

Outstanding

We received outstanding service today from one of your team members, Anu, who supported us with a sensitive family matter over the phone. She was incredibly caring, patient, and professional throughout the call. Her understanding and thoughtful approach made what could have been a very stressful situation so much easier to manage. We were truly grateful for her kindness and the way she handled everything with such empathy and efficiency.
