OK - Generally

Generally Halifax are OK. They are reliable, charges are reasonable and rates OK. They will sting you for foreign charges though. Also their IT security isn't as good as it could be. Reviewed on: 4th February 2017

I love the halifax rewards account. It gives me piece of mind with car breakdown, mobile insurance and holiday insurance for all my family.
