Nothing to complain about with this service Reviewed on: 2nd June 2016

Fantastic cashback & great customer service

5
Was offered £100 to change my Natwest account to a Halifax Current account and £5 per month for £700+ deposits into the account. Everything was done online, I had nothing to do but complete a few small details in-store with very helpful Halifax staff. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2016

I love Halifax. They're always on hand 24/7 and telephone and online banking is great. Pick up time is usually very quick too. Reviewed on: 18th May 2016

switching was so easy and the benefits are great!

5
I felt my bank wasn't providing me with as much as others and after looking around I decided on Halifax. I was so impressed with how easy it was to switch. It was all done online and complete in no time, with regular text updates. The whole account has a lot more going for it than my previous one and I'm really glad I made the switch. The added bonus of £100 was very nice too! Reviewed on: 17th May 2016

Good online system and they pay me £5 a month - what more could you want?

5
I have no problems as at all with this account - it just works. From the online system to the branches, they are easy to deal with. The staffing can be an issue, but as they have paying-in machines in branch it's no hassle. Reviewed on: 13th May 2016

fab!

Halifax Switcher Current Account

5
I have recently switched current accounts using the Halifax switcher service. I am very impressed by the service that they have provided me with. Following my initial application online the current account was set up and all my direct debits and standing orders transferred from my existing bank within 10 days. As an incentive for opening the account £100.00 was also paid into my new account by the Halifax once the account was open. Reviewed on: 28th March 2016
