Great Service

5
I have been with Halifax for 15 years now, and only when I ended up taking a mortgage out with another bank at a preferential rate did I realise how easy Halifax made things for customers. The banking app is brilliant, with an easy to use security sign in, and I love that I can telephone directly to a branch unlike some other banks! Reviewed on: 16th November 2016

Happy customer until Feb

3
I'm with Halifax as they've been OK thus far, but having seen that the £5 'reward' is going to be cut to £3 in February, I'l be jumping ship then. And at the same time, they'll give new customers £100+ for switching, where's the incentive for loyalty?? Reviewed on: 3rd November 2016

Holiday nightmare turned good

5
Travel insurance is very good and comprehensive. Purse stolen but quickly settled with minimum fuss and nightmare quickly over Reviewed on: 10th September 2016

Well worth it

Always hassle free to deal with, accessible customer service and someone always answers the phone! Reviewed on: 10th September 2016

Friendly staff

4
I had to visit a branch to reset my online details which was fairly inconvenient, however the staff in the Newcastle Haymarket branch were very friendly and helpful and dealt with my concern as quickly as they could. Reviewed on: 2nd June 2016

Halifax provide lots of extras with their reward account for £15 a month which it great for a whole family. Reviewed on: 14th April 2016

Reward Current Account

5
I have the Reward Current Account from Halifax - it pays ME £5 per month for each month I stay in credit, pay in at least £750 and have two direct debits leaving my account. If I don't meet the conditions in any given month then I just don't get the £5 for that month, its a no lose situation and doesn't cost me a penny. Online banking is excellent and easy to use and the telephone team are helpful and available 24/7. I've been with the Halifax for about 20 years, highly recommended. Reviewed on: 28th March 2016

No fuss, easy banking!

5
