Review of the Halifax, Current Account:

Generally ok but staff & complaints are rubbish

3
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

When money matters and times are tough, it's great to know you are aware of a place for advice without gains or calling your bluff. Halifax are always on hand as far as any high street or app can see, they are more than just a bank they are vital friendly places in our community. So next time things don't feel like it's gonna add up your way, ask for friendly reassured advice for they are there more than just a bill or direct debit to pay .. Reviewed on: 1st June 2023
