Review of the Halifax, Current Account:

A good current account

I have had the current account with Halifax for years, when we originally signed up, we had a $5 month cashback, if you had your wages paid into it plus 2 direct debits, Even though the cashback has been reduced to £3 a month it is still an ok account for us Reviewed on: 6th November 2017

Current account management

I am satisfied the way my account is handled. Reviewed on: 21st August 2023

Happy with the account

Good product fit for purpose and I would advise considering it. Reviewed on: 18th August 2023

Great Benefits

For a low cost lots of good benefits are being rewarded Reviewed on: 13th August 2023

Basic

Should do more by instantly drawing more interest on idle money. The saving rates are getting poorer for savings accounts. Reviewed on: 11th August 2023

Best All-Round Bank

I have everything in one place with Halifax Bank. I have been a customer for more than 30 years so I speak with more than a little confidence of their services. Excellent! Tim Gray Reviewed on: 10th August 2023

okay

not good interest and bank is not open enough hours but the people are friendly Reviewed on: 13th July 2023

Excellent in every way

I was recently scammed on line and the scammers attemlted to take a large sum of money from my current account. Halifax security immediately blocked the transaction and contacted me. The only damage done was having to be issued with a new bank card. I can't thank the Halifax enough nor the kind emplyee who contacted me from their fraud department. A big 5* Reviewed on: 7th July 2023

A decent bank. Telephone service is poor.

I do telephone banking. It’s one cockup after another with Halifax Bank. I have to attend at the branch often to sort out problems, I don’t do online banking. I think their actions are a deliberate ploy to force me to change to IB. Reviewed on: 5th July 2023
