Review of the Halifax, Current account:

Always A***

I have been a Halifax customer most of my life, the reason being that I have never had any reason to change! Everything is really simple, from paying in cash and cheques to their excellent online banking system. Staff in branch are always contactable directly unlike some other major banks where you are required to go through an automated systeme. Reviewed on: 6th November 2017

Appalling - vote with your money and leave

With Halifax over 30 years. First 20 were were very good - mortgage, current account, credit cards, etc. Last 10 years appalling customer service. They have down spec'd the customer service.. they stop every 2 out of 5 payments so you have to spend 20 minutes every 2 weekson phone to them proving who you are to access your own money; then they do it again! and again! Avoid like the plague as the customer comes last with Halifax. Reviewed on: 24th May 2025

For a larger banks, I was skeptical about a switch to a Halifax current account but I've been impressed. Everything just works! When I've needed customer services they've been there the range of current account offerings is decent. Reviewed on: 15th April 2025
