Review of the Halifax, Current Account:

Generally ok but staff & complaints are rubbish

Staff on their messaging service keep closing chats immediately (despite taking hours to reply), don't answer the question and then my complaint still hasn't been dealt with - it was a relatively simple matter so I'm not sure why 1: the initial 3 staff members couldn't resolve it or 2: complaints couldn't sort it out already. Phone service is not good, long hold times so gave up on trying to use that. Reviewed on: 17th June 2023

not so good.

not so good. someone owed me money and bank transferred it to me. i’m guessing because they moved away is why they did a charge back on my account and it ended up getting closed . I was not at fault Reviewed on: 15th February 2024

I find their customer services excellent. Their app is also really good Reviewed on: 2nd February 2024

I feel safe with the Halifax

I've had an account with the Halifax since I was a child and since that time they've not been involved with any financial scandal (as far as I know!) and that makes me feel confident in them as a bank. Reviewed on: 15th October 2023

Standard current account

Been with Halifax for 30 years. Seem pretty much average on a par with most other high street banks. Good on-line App but it’s awful to see so many branches closed and closing as there’s nothing as good as a face to face chat with a real person Reviewed on: 11th October 2023

Very secure and great rewards

Been a customer for years App is marvellous Reviewed on: 11th October 2023

Helpful, knowledgeable, professional and safe bank

Staff are always helpful and professional. I feel my finances are in safe hands at Halifax. Reviewed on: 4th October 2023

Unsecure account and terrible customer service

50£ left my account through a standing order that I never set up. I have been in contact with them 6 times through the chat and 2 on the phone. Long waiting times (over an hour) and always technical issues. They still have not been able to solve it nor to tell me where the money went. Reviewed on: 20th September 2023

Good but not always

Good but not always you must check twice before to deal with Reviewed on: 31st August 2023

Fantastic App!

The best thing about them is the digital app which is the most functional, easy to use and full service I have used. If there is ever something you can't do o on the app (which is rare) you can call them directly through the app so its quicker and they are always been helpful, reliable and fair.
