Review of the Halifax, Clarity Credit Card:

Falls from grace

This was a great credit card for spending money abroad - affordable and simple to use. However they have recently changed the rules so that paying the money back early - for example to reduce the interest charged on cash withdrawals - does not reduce the direct debit charge for the next month. After several instances where my credit card was significantly in the positive I have been left with no choice but to cancel the direct debit and so am now avoiding using it where possible Reviewed on: 25th January 2020

very good

always use it abroad always use it abroad Reviewed on: 21st November 2019

Blocked my card 3 times abroad

The savings made on no fees for withdrawing cash is great. However when they block my card they send me a text asking to confirm it was me. Unfortunately this text costs me £6 a time to respond to as I am outside of europe. The fact they have blocked it 3 times means it has cost me £18, much more than the ATM fees for other cards Reviewed on: 21st November 2019

You lost another customer!

You lost another customer, including our mortgage, cards and banking accounts! These guys change their term on their cards so often it's shocking. All banks are in serious trouble so they are changing their terms to rip you off as much as possible before they all fold and do a bail-in. Get out of debt soon, these thieves are doing all they can to take as much as possible. They doubled my interest on my card, stating if you dont pay full balance, the 56 interest free days is invalid and they slam you with a huge minimum payment and double interest. AVOID THESE GUYS!
