Review of the Halifax, Current account:

Pleasant staff and straightforward to open an account

Having only recently opened an account with Halifax, I have to say the process was easy and pain-free. I was offered the chance to attend a meeting at a time of my choosing, where a quick credit check was run and my personal identity documents checked. All staff were very pleasant an eager to help. My new account was available to me immediately with online access from the get-go. My card arrived within a few days by post. The online banking website is not the prettiest or the easiest to navigate (although this may be to my lack of familiarity with it). I like that you can change the name of your bank account online to something more personal in order to help distinguish it from other account. Overall, I have had nothing but great customer service from this bank, where the staff always appear to have a friendly and happy manner. Reviewed on: 18th August 2015
