I get some cashback rewards ont he account from places I spend at - pennies really, but the three pounds per mo th isn't bad - just have to pay in 2 Direct Debits Reviewed on: 29th March 2017

Switching soon

3
Not only have they reduced my reward of £5 to £3, I had to pay in some coins this week, and was told I could only change 5 bags worth. I had 6 bags...which seems a bit archaic, unhelpful, and definitely not "going the extra mile". Reviewed on: 10th March 2017

£5 a month

5
As long as I get my wage paid in, I get five pounds a month for free! Reviewed on: 4th March 2017

Free five pounds

It's a normal bank account but it pays me five pounds a month for doing nothing which is better than all of the banks I've used in the past. Maxyourmoney Reviewed on: 1st March 2017

How I MaxMyMoney with Halifax

4
I have a Halifax Reward current account. It pays £5 month ( soon dropping to £3) if you have two direct debits and pay in £750 month. I have £750 that circles every month between several different bank accounts thus earning me interest in these accounts. I use the interest that I earn from the Halifax to pay for my mobile phone bill every month which is exactly £5 on a special deal with Plusnet. So in essence my mobile is free every month for me. Halifax is generally good service and when I gave had problems they have been happy to help. #MaxMyMoney Reviewed on: 1st March 2017

Appalling Customer Service

1
I opened the Halifax Reward Account with the promise that wold receive £100 reward to "qualify" you need to pay in a certain amount and use their switching service and have at least two direct debts . I pay in £1850pcm . tick . I applied to use the switch service , tick , I have more that 2 DD tick ,. HOWEVER , their switching service cocked up and I had to make the switch myself for my direct debits . NOW they are using their error as an excuse not to pay the opening £100 reward . Pointless having the discussion with CUSTOMER SERVICE , they say the computer says no !!! No common sense , happy to lose customers . GUESS WHAT... this customer is off . Reviewed on: 1st March 2017
