Santander International is a branch of Santander UK PLC, which is part of the Banco Santander Group.
Santander UK is an autonomous business, and is one of the UK's leading personal financial services companies, and one of the largest providers of mortgages and savings in the UK.
The bank has circa 20,000 employees, 14 million active customers, with almost 1,010 branches and 50 corporate business centres.
The bank was established on 11 January 2010 from names you will be familiar with - when Abbey National plc was combined with the savings business and branches of Bradford & Bingley plc, and renamed Santander UK plc. Alliance & Leicester plc merged into the renamed business in May 2010.

I'm happy banking with Santander - I used them in the UK before I moved abroad.
I like the simplicity and flexibility. I wouldn't use them for saving or investing though.
For day to day banking, and moving money back and forth between countries, I'm finding them more than adequate.
We think that Santander International’s range of accounts for expats is adequate for retail client needs, but it is less effective as a wealth creation platform for professional expatriates when compared with other available options.
In addition, there are better private banking options available for HNW and UHNW.
