A year with Halifax

4
After switching from TSB to Halifax last year I can't recommend them enough! I switched as there wasn't a TSB local to me I decided to go with Halifax, I done the switching all online and it was so easy! Halifax sorted everything and changed over all my direct debits and it was completely stress free, I got text updates as it was happening and it only took a week! I haven't had any problems at all since switching and everytime I've went into the branch it has been a lovely experience with great staff. Reviewed on: 19th February 2016

My Bank have been able to help arrange my direct debits so I don't get hit with all my bills at once and so that I don't go overdrawn anymore. Also my bank has now arranged it so I have a buffer so I can't go overdrawn, also having access to internet banking and the support in branch I have been able to manage my money better and even opened up an everyday saver.
