Current Account with extras

5
I have had a great experience using the Halifax current account. A bonus is paid every month and I can see all my transactions when using the app. Reviewed on: 8th November 2018

Appalling customer service

1
I rang their customer service line to cancel the "ultimate" bank account benefits as I don't use them. After a few months they reinstated the charges. Despite several emails they have still not cancelled the account. Forwarding onto the ombudsman Reviewed on: 8th November 2018

Brilliant Local Service

5
Flexible, local branch with very helpful staff! Most transactions can be done easily and quickly online but the local branch has excellent opening hours including saturday mornings. Reviewed on: 8th November 2018

Simple no-fuss banking

5

Room for improvement

3
I switched to Halifax from Natwest a few years ago and must say for me Natwest was the better bank. In my opinion theres nothing overly terrible about Halifax , there have been a few occasions whereby the staff have not been so helpful. From the experience I have had with theres no reason why would recommend Halifax to friends/family as for me it is very average. Reviewed on: 8th November 2018

CURRENTly Happy!

5
In the last two years since banking with the Halifax, I can honestly say that I’m completely satisfied and I’ve had no problems whatsoever. I mostly bank online and the site is very easy to use-from transfers to statements it’s super simple to manage. And occasionally I do go into a branch and again, I’ve had exceptional service each time I’ve visited. Really I cannot find fault and highly recommend The Halifax. Reviewed on: 7th November 2018

Best bank in my experience

It was really easy to switch and every month I get a little reward. I love the customer service too. Much better than any other I’ve experienced! Reviewed on: 6th November 2018
