Great bank overall

I have been a Halifax customer for many years and always get a warm welcome when I go into branch. They take security seriously and keeping my details and money safe is a top priority. Using their online banking facility is effortless and they extra security questions I have to answer leave me feeling reassured. Reviewed on: 6th November 2017

An easy switch and easy online account to use!

I switched to Halifax fairly recently and was delighted to be given £125 for doing so! The main thing I love about my Halifax current account is that using online banking is super easy!!! It is a great for anyone who struggles with fiddly log on processes. Reviewed on: 6th November 2017

A good current account
