this account is perfect for thse that want all the benefits of a current account but without the usual monthly fees. The online app is very easy to navigate and incredibly simple to make any changes that you need to make.

I've been with Halifax now since I left school aged 15. Ten years to be infact. I have not had one single problem with them. Internet banking is straight forward and simple. They never hassle me to take out bigger loans, or better accounts. The staff are always accomodating and friendly! I just absolutely love Halifax. So people friendly! Reviewed on: 19th February 2016

Bank with confidence

5
I moved to Halifax using the switching service, it was the best move I have made, it was smooth, I didn't need to do anything, I then decided to upgrade my account. I was taken through a checklist to make sure I was signing up to a service I required. The service was fantastic, the documents were there the next day and the card the day after I have never had a bank account that has ran so smooth. Reviewed on: 19th February 2016
