One Week Left To Take Advantage Of GBP100 Cash Gift To Switch To An Abbey Or A&L Current Account
Current account holders are being urged to take advantage of a GBP100 cash gift from Santander's UK current account brands, Abbey and Alliance & Leicester, before the offer ends on Sunday 8th November 2009

LONDON, ENGLAND, November 05, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The GBP100 offer is available to customers who switch to an Abbey Preferred Overdraft Rate (PODR) account or an Alliance & Leicester Premier Current Account.

Helen Palmer, Head of Santander's UK current account brands, commented: "Many customers are not getting the best value they can for their money, as most providers offer little or no value on their overdrafts and in-credit interest rates. Abbey and A&L are bucking that trend by offering two great Current Accounts and GBP100 to those who switch to us from another provider.

"Easy money is difficult to come by at the moment, but switching to a more competitive current account, and receiving GBP100 from Abbey or A&L for doing so, is a win-win opportunity for a lot of people who are suffering with a poor value account...but you have to get in quick before the offer ends in one week's time."

The GBP100 cash bonus is available on Abbey's PODR bank account and Alliance & Leicester's Premier Current Account. Product features include:

Abbey Preferred Overdraft Rate Bank Account (Switchers):
• Interest free overdraft for 12 months (12.9% EAR typical thereafter)
• 0.5% AER/gross in-credit interest on balances up to GBP2,500 (subject to minimum monthly credit of GBP1,000)
• Overdraft matching up to GBP5,000 available (depending on circumstances)

Alliance & Leicester Premier Current Account:
• Interest free overdraft for 12 months (50p per day up to GBP5 a month thereafter)
• 0.5% AER/gross in-credit interest on balances up to GBP2,500
• Free annual European travel insurance
