Review of the Halifax, Current Account:

Great account

Great current account giving £5 reward each month plus cash back to be earnt using your debit card in certain stores. Very helpful in branch when setting up the account talking us through everything really well, can't fault them so far. Reviewed on: 28th March 2016

A decent bank. Telephone service is poor.

I do telephone banking. It’s one cockup after another with Halifax Bank. I have to attend at the branch often to sort out problems, I don’t do online banking. I think their actions are a deliberate ploy to force me to change to IB. Reviewed on: 5th July 2023

Thoughtfulness

Always offer assistance in time of crissis Reviewed on: 19th June 2023

Generally ok but staff & complaints are rubbish

Staff on their messaging service keep closing chats immediately (despite taking hours to reply), don't answer the question and then my complaint still hasn't been dealt with - it was a relatively simple matter so I'm not sure why 1: the initial 3 staff members couldn't resolve it or 2: complaints couldn't sort it out already. Phone service is not good, long hold times so gave up on trying to use that. Reviewed on: 17th June 2023
