Review of the Halifax, Current Account:

Brilliant banking experience

I can’t fault Halifax at all I’ve been with them over ten years and had previously banked with 2 different high street banks which where average but Halifax have time and again went above and beyond for my needs wether it be finding extra currency for my holidays short notice that I forgot to order in or helping with queries I had about online charges from companies I didn’t recognise and there staff are very friendly and well informed Reviewed on: 9th March 2023

Reliable, Easy, Pain-Free

I have banked with Halifax for 5 years or more now. I have not one complaint. I particularly like the app for my phone which is easy to use and efficient. I also have two savings accounts for my children and these are linked to my account which makes it all really easy to keep track of in one place. I also get incentives to stay under my overdraft which is a great extra. Reviewed on: 26th November 2019

Good service

Everytime I've been into my local branch. (Redcar) The staff are always happy and helpful Reviewed on: 25th November 2019

Generally fine but forever changing for the worse

Generally this account does what it needs to but every time they update the terms in conditions there are more fees. The reason I opened this account and pay a monthly fee is because I wanted a free overdraft facility but they now charge a daily fee if I use my arranged overdraft. Reviewed on: 24th November 2019

Expensive charges for Rewards

charges just rocketed up . . . . . . time to switch Reviewed on: 24th November 2019

Reward Current Account

I have the reward current account which is perfectly ok. However when I signed up for it you got a £5 per month reward but that has now been reduced to £2 per month. Reviewed on: 23rd November 2019

EASY CURRENT ACCOUNT

SIMPLE EASY TO USE EVEN FOR SOMEONE WHO IS NOT TECH SAVVY, I MANAGED TO SCAN AND PAY IN MY CHEQUE ONLINE WITHOUT HAVING TO GO INTO A BRANCH. Reviewed on: 23rd November 2019
