Great Bank

I've never had any problems banking with Halifax. Easy but secure online access. Reviewed on: 26th January 2020

Untold Investments

I was surprised to find that as part of the Lloyd’s banking group my monies were used to support fossil fuel extraction. Reviewed on: 25th January 2020

Halifax Rocks

There’s nothing they can’t do and they do it well. The only reason for a lower score is due to branch closing hours. Reviewed on: 25th January 2020

Great services

Simply the best bank in London. Easy to use and safe Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Good servcie but declining rewards

Customer service in branch is good. Account started out with a £5 per month reward, reduced to £3 & then to £2. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Great service

Easiest account ive ever had - recommend to all Reviewed on: 21st January 2020

Great!

I've had an account since 1999. I moved away to Asia for several years, leaving very little in my account. When I eventually moved back to the UK in 2012, I was able to re-access my account with no difficulty and no charges! This was unusual as I was used to paying a fee in Hong Kong with HSBC. If your account fell below $5000, you were charged $50. No wonder so many people were leaving "The World's Favourite Bank"! I have never had any problems with The Halifax. Their mobile app is easy to use and quick. Customer service is exemplary. Reviewed on: 21st January 2020

Reliable trustworthy

I have banked with Halifax for several years. They have great customer service, the online banking is easy to organise my money. The savings accounts offer good interest rates and the current account offers a £2 bonus each month. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
