Good Service, Okay Extras

4
The current account I have is a fairly good one, it functions well, security is good and they have the best mobile app of any of the top banks. They also offer cashback extras which are pretty useful, but it’s not often I find use for them. I’ve been with Halifax for most of my life and I’ve not yet been disappointed with them. Reviewed on: 5th November 2018

Trust them with my cash

I banked for over 20 years with Nationwide right up until my mother died and they made such a mess of her finances I did not fail safe, went along to my local Halifax, smart, easy to get to see someone, friendly and knowledgeable, and most importantly did not try to force any of their services upon us. We went away read through the bumpf and went and transferred our current account (so easy) and arranged a mortgage Reviewed on: 5th November 2018
