Brilliant for using on holiday abroad.

Brilliant for using on holiday abroad. Excellent rate of conversion. Feel protected by carrying a card versus £ cash. Reviewed on: 13th January 2024

Payments declined, terrible customer service

1
Travelling in Australia. First decline happened in Singapore after the first purchase went trough ok. Second decline was a £500 purchase using Apple Pay. App chatbot totally useless and recommends a phone call. Spent 45 minutes, most of it on hold, and was told the problem was not with the card but was caused by Apple Pay purchase value limits and it would clear after 24 hours. It didn’t. First transaction the following day worked and the second didn’t. Tried using the physical card and PIN, as suggested by a fraud rep during the call but that didn’t work either. Luckily I have a Monzo card so will be using it for the rest of my holiday. If you were thinking of using a Clarity card for your holiday, think again. I shall be cutting mine up when I get home.

Excellent for overseas

As long as you pay it off in full each month there’s no charges, interest and most importantly, no foreign transaction fees. The perfect holiday companion, much better than changing and taking loads of cash abroad! Reviewed on: 24th August 2023

Useless for travel, security procedures in the dark ages

1
Have previously had a barclaycard travel credit card, mondo and still have a chase debit card for using abroad. Been using clarity credit card for the last 18 months and nothing but issues. Blocked multiple times while abroad. No option to authorise transactions through app, they insist on using text message which is archaic, and more importantly not feasible when using local SIM cards in different countries. Have had to rely on may chase card, cash or colleagues. Getting through to a helpline requires 20-30 mins of waiting. Some reps don't appear to be able to access previous notes about your card. For simple things like setting up Apple Pay, you need to call them! and not dialling from a phone, but through the app. And even when done through the app, if I doesn't register as through an app, and therefore higher authorisation, they can't verify your card for Apple Pay. I've also had a rep send me a replacement card, due to a flag for possible compromise, with the same credit card number - idiotic. Honestly cannot recommend them Reviewed on: 15th August 2023

The Halifax Clavity Credit Card is a versatile card with a competitive APR and rewards program. It offers a sign-up bonus, low annual fee, and flexible credit limit. The card has reliable customer service and robust security measures. Overall, it's a solid choice for those looking for a rewards-based credit card with good features. Reviewed on: 11th June 2023
