Solid banking no frills just easy

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

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

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?

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!

just got this last year and im so pleased with it!! its so easy to do on online banking and its so easy to use!! i am thinking of putting more money in to get the rewards u get from this! Reviewed on: 14th January 2016

Basic stuff

When I joined, I was invited with a £100 swap over. The credit checks came back perfect but they never did give the reward to me. The branch in Haverfordwest is a nightmare! They keep changing the queue positions and what's the point in having three windows when only one is open! People wishing to deposit cash get in the way because of the poorly placed cash deposit machine. I hate going into branch. Reviewed on: 30th December 2015

Customer Service Beyond My Expectations

Chatting to a customer service advisor and I happened to ask about transferring an account to my Halifax reward Account. The advisor asked me if I had the details of the account so she could do the switch for me. Unfortunately I had not changed the address details since my move. That wasn't a problem to her and she promptly printed off the change of address details for the other bank, helped me fill it in, wrote out an envelope and put the paperwork in. I was seriously impressed with her help and assistance in transferring a TSB account over to Halifax. Reviewed on: 29th December 2015

Ok experience

I have had a Halifax current account for over 15 years. I am happy with the account and not had issues. The customer service is fine, but I have not had to contact them for any recent issues. The website is good as you can see all your accounts clearly. Reviewed on: 24th December 2015

Free money, whats not to like?

I've had a halifax reward current account for a while and never had any major issues with it. The free £5 a month isn't bad considering you don't really need to do anything to get it apart from a minimum payment in and a couple of direct debits out. The basic overdraft fees aren't too bad (£1 a day if less than about £1800) but if you go over that, it increases to £2 a day or £3 a day.. obviously if you're needing to use that much of your overdraft, £90 a month in overdraft fees isn't going to help, but overall a good account. Reviewed on: 24th December 2015

Awful

We got a joint account, they should warn you if the other party decides to spend, spend spend and really they should be a bit more considerate! Left as couldn't stand them! Reviewed on: 24th December 2015
