At one point I started receiving third-party spam to santander_currentacct@[domain]. I contacted Santander, my bank, to ask how that e-mail address had leaked. They insisted that I must have used it elsewhere since their systems were watertight. I changed it to something like santander_dontspamme@ and sure enough after a few months the spam started. This time Santander didn't even reply to my complaints. I subsequently moved my current accounts to another bank, leaving £0.01 in several Santander accounts just to keep them open.
