Review of the Halifax, Current Account:

Best banking app

The best banking app Ive ever used. Intuitive and everything you need in one place including card information, help chat and accounts from other banks Reviewed on: 31st May 2023

Reliable and good at communication

Was able to quickly sort out a scammer, who scammed my account and stop a payment being made. Reviewed on: 1st February 2023

Great communication

I have always had a good experience with the Halifax and would highly recommend them. They keep me updated with all activity and send 'pop-ups' reminding me of income and expenditure. This is very useful especially with my ilness that causes 'brain fog'. They dealt swiftly and professionally when my bank account was hacked, and I enjoy using the 'cashback' offers every month, which make a difference over time. The app is clear and easy to use and there are many products on offer. None of my previous banks have given the information or bonuses this bank does and I'm a very happy customer. Reviewed on: 1st February 2023

Great for bad credit

I originally had a basic account but year by year I have been offered better accounts and get rewards such as cashback for doing nothing just normal shopping Reviewed on: 1st February 2023

Brilliant switch service

I really like how Halifax handled the switch service ! They did this quickly and efficiently . You can easily track all your pending payments and transactions . User friendly app and easy to manage payments and transfer money to others Reviewed on: 1st February 2023

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

outstanding

very efficient in dealing with current account Reviewed on: 31st January 2023

account

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
