Hi,

First, thank you for this script. I just want here to suggest an integration with another piece of software because I believe it could improve yours, theirs, and probably the experience of the users (amongst whom you and me ;-)).
I am talking about "boobank", which is part of "weboob" (web out of browsers), which aims at automating many tasks usually done through browsers (banking, for boobank).

This means that you could convert you script to a module for santander (see http://weboob.org/applications/boobank for a list of already supported modules). Notice that most of them are French banks, and they are missing UK ones.

The advantage is that it would automatically solve several points of you todo list (Multiple accounts and support other banks).
Also, boobank serves as a backend for several very convenient softwares, for example Kresus (https://framagit.org/bnjbvr/kresus), which is a web interface to manage bank accounts (standalone or part of a "cloud" software called cozycloud).

I have no idea on how hard it is to implement a module for boobank (it's python at least), but If you are willing to go this path, I surely can try to give a hand.

Sounds fun! I doubt I'll have time to work on it, but would happily accept
contributions to do it.

Santander closed down my test account for making too many small
transactions, so I don't really have an easy way to test this code anymore.

Well, I can try to have a very basic support. I have a personal account there, so I can do some testing, as soon as it is not too intensive.

I'll just throw some references here in case it is useful for someone.
Setup the development environment:
http://dev.weboob.org/guides/setup

Create a new module:
http://dev.weboob.org/guides/module

Description of the capability we want to implement (the CapBank one):
http://dev.weboob.org/api/capabilities/bank

Additionally, one can look at examples of modules for other banks. "carrefourbanque" seems to be one of the simplest.
