Great switching bonus

5
I love my bank, It never charges me if I go overdrawn. It also gave me £150 when I switched, should have been £120 but there was a delay so they gave me extra. Awesome Thanks #Halifax Reviewed on: 12th February 2016

Easy FAst payment

Halifax current account with £5 reward for having your salary go into it each month and just 2 direct debits out is genius! Reviewed on: 9th February 2016

Halifax? Relax

5
There once was a bank called Halifax, Whose easy online banking made me relax, Whether current or savings, Their Reward Accounts were amazing, Once opened, there was no way I'd look back (s)! Reviewed on: 27th January 2016

Solid banking no frills just easy

5
I switched to Halifax, mainly for the switching bonus but also because RBS were terrible. £5 paid in every month is a nice little bonus, their online banking is the same as LLoyds and very easy to use. Fully recommend, even if their bank staff can be a bit slow at times, Reviewed on: 26th January 2016

Current account paying £5 a month

5
I've held a Halifax current account for years, and now hold a second, joint account, too. Both pay £5 per month as long as we pay £750 in every month - my salary goes into one then gets partially transferred into the other account. So I earn £10 per month for banking with Halifax. You have to watch out not to go overdrawn, though, as charges are high. The staff in my local branch are also really helpful and polite, and queues are always kept to a minimum. A bit of a shame about the online e-saver and the online cash ISA rates, these used to be much better a few years ago. Reviewed on: 26th January 2016

Mostly good sometime really bad

3
Halifax over an overall basic service which they do really well but what they don't do well is specific tailor made packages for the individual if you are looking for this then I suggest that you go elsewhere because you will not find it at Halifax. Reviewed on: 24th January 2016

Frequent fine fiver... forever?

4
It's great that a fiver is paid into my account each month but will this last? With Halifax promising 'extra' maybe the fiver can be turned into a tenner? Reviewed on: 23rd January 2016

perfect savings!

5
