Brilliant bank

Halifax is a great bank. Their customer service is always ready to help and they provide great products. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2019

A bank you can trust

On the whole Halifax is a good bank . Customer service is quite good - the only drawback is that they used to pay £5 if you had 2 direct debits and paid in a certain amount - now it is only £2. Reviewed on: 20th January 2019

Bank account with no headaches

Halifax personal current account is great for everyday transactions, bill payments, money transfers, opening savings accounts online etc. I have banked with them for a number of years and never had any problems. Their online banking is quick and easy to use and you can see everything in one place. My childrens accounts are now shown so I can easily manage those now too. Reviewed on: 19th January 2019

halifax basic

I have a basic account, and that is what it is...basic, despite being with them years i am still no closer to even getting a contactless card let alone an overdraft lol! Reviewed on: 12th January 2019

Simple current account

Simple, straightforward current account. Local branch has very friendly and helpful staff. Reviewed on: 12th January 2019

Monthly Bonus

Halifax has reduced its monthly bonus from £5 down to £3 and now down to £2 which has made me open an account with another bank whereby I get monthly interest on my balance. Reviewed on: 11th January 2019
