40 years great service

Been with this bank for 40 years as a current account customer and never had any issues with them Reviewed on: 15th February 2024

Lost all mine and daughters details

I wanted to set up an account for my 1 year old. They told me to do it online and come back to verify her and myself with birth certificates, passports etc. Did that. Went to see why I hadn't been updated on the progress to find out they had LOST all our info including photo copies of our verifications. Appalling Reviewed on: 1st February 2017

Halifax Current Account

4
My favourite thing about the Halifax current account is how easy everything is to do online. You are able to extend or close overdrafts, easily transfer money, win rewards etc etc. It's very quick and I am yet to have any problems in all the 10+ years that I have banked with them.
