Review of the Halifax, Current Account:

A good current account

I have had the current account with Halifax for years, when we originally signed up, we had a $5 month cashback, if you had your wages paid into it plus 2 direct debits, Even though the cashback has been reduced to £3 a month it is still an ok account for us Reviewed on: 6th November 2017

Easy till use bank always deal with problems effectively and efficiently Reviewed on: 4th April 2023

Good but app and processes could be clearer

Overall good but i feel Halifax should’ve been clearer with the specific terms and conditions for the reward current account. Part of the conditions to gain reward is spending a certain amount of money using the account but it was not made clear that DD’s and standing orders do not count and what counts is using the card is shops. I’m sure it’s in the small print somewhere however, i was unable to find the info when i looked and it’s only now that i have opened the account i realise DD’s/standing order don’t count. This should be more clear when you apply for the account and shouldn’t have to be in small print (if it is) Reviewed on: 4th April 2023
