mis sold mortgage

1
Told us we could let our house and still re negotiate a fixed deal. Later changed their minds. Cost me about £2000, the response was , you shouldnt have listened to our advisor and should have read the fine print. nice Reviewed on: 13th April 2022

Heartless customer service.

1
Been with bank for 20 years an never missed a payment. Recently told have throat cancer so went on to sick pay whilst undergoing treatment. Asked bank for help with payment holiday whilst on sickpay..bank refused point blank telling me to go speak to a debt advisor. Heartless policies that go totally against Halifax adverts... "for the up and the downs in life...and every thing inbetween". Could not be further from the truth, happy to take your money but turn their back when you ask for help. Disgusting policies and principles hiding behind glossy adverts. Please avoid. Reviewed on: 4th April 2022

First class mortgage service

We have a mortgage with the Halifax which we've had for more than 7 years on a fixed rate without any problems. We have decided to move house and needed an agreement in principle which we completed online. We made an error in completing the form, so rang in and spoke to Bradley Clarke, a mortgage consultant, who immediately sorted out the issue and emailed over the agreement in principle then and there. He was polite, friendly and very reassuring. It reminded us why we stay with the Halifax for our mortgage. Thank you for your help tonight - much appreciated. Reviewed on: 5th January 2022

Atrocious Service, Cost us Thousands

1
We're doing a remortgage to Halifax of our current mortgage. They've had the case for multiple weeks, and were progressing with free legals through Optima as per their standard conditions. Their free legal service is now saying that they won't deal with the case putting us right back to the beginning. Our remortgage is relatively standard and Halifax have said that they are happy to lend against our house, but that the case should never have come to them in the first place. This has led to thousands of pounds worth of interest payments on our behalf and on top of that, we now need to pay for our own legal costs to move the mortgage. Frankly, if it was going to go this way, I'd have used someone else and I'll never remortgage to Halifax again. I'll also be looking into taking them to court for compensation for our losses.

Terrible people

1
Banked with them 20 years and wouldn’t help me one little bit. Offered me an AIP for 161k then when we went to branch offered me 112k! Zero debts and good background. Horrid people and terrible bank. Closing all my accounts with them ASAP. Avoid them :( Reviewed on: 21st October 2021

Solid lender with good rates

3
Was able to secure a good 5 year fixed rate. Not really had to interact as I always pay on time. Will probably remortgage with them again if their rates are competitive in 2024. Reviewed on: 17th June 2021

Helpful and honest
