Best bank current account

I’ve been banking with Halifax for over thirty years and I’ve never had a problem with them, if I needed help it was given straight away and solved any problems I had come across would definitely recommend them to all my family and friends Reviewed on: 1st February 2023

Great Bank!!

I’ve been with the Halifax Bank now for 5+ years and have never had any issues with them. I have everything I need with their current account and online banking. Would recommend to anyone! Reviewed on: 1st February 2023

easy to use online but overdrafts are too expensive Reviewed on: 28th January 2023

A bank without the stress

Had a few accounts with different banks over the years and have had nothing but issues with other banks including one closing my account without explanation (rbs). This Halifax account is the only one I've had where I haven't had a single problem. Love Halifax ❤️ Reviewed on: 25th January 2023

Great staff - but they closed the local branch.

Sign of the times, I guess but it was nice to have a person to talk to...... Reviewed on: 22nd January 2023

Best bank!!

I’ve been with Halifax for almost 30 years. I’m normally resistant to change, such as when the app was launched I refused to get it for quite a while (terrified of cyber crime), but it has revolutionised how I see, spend and organise my money. I can see how much/ what is coming in and out of my current account and all my other accounts too. I can easily open new accounts and renew interest rates with a few clicks and even apply for a credit card or child savings account. I love how easy it is to manage standing orders and money transfers in my account, see what is expected to leave the so I can easily manage finances and I love all the extras for my current account as well, such as save the change and cashback extras.
