£5 pm for this a/c Only they do not pay it. Try phoning, its from one dept to another, same questions same "can you hold on a moment". It's like fighting to get out of a maze at night wearing a blindfold. Couldn't waste any more time . Reviewed on: 10th August 2023

After awful banking experiences with a previous provider I switched to Halifax and have never looked back. Everything I need all in one place and easy to access securely. With the added bonus of the reassurance that my money is safe and accounted for. Customer service are professional and helpful Reviewed on: 9th March 2023

Awful customer service

1
I have been a customer of Halifax for 10 years now. This week my daughter was rushed to hospital and I had to make purchases of food, taxi, and essential items from the hospital. After a couple of transactions Halifax blocked my and my wife’s access to the account with no explanation, which made a stressful situation even more stressful. When I attempted to raise the issue online I was initially told there was no block and was then told it was a fraud block, so I asked them to verify the transactions and lift the block but they stated it would remain for 24 hours. Fast forward to the result of my formal complaint and I was told it was not a fraud block, but it is their policy to place undisclosed and continually variable daily limits on transactions and they would not apologise for doing so. So Halifax is not a bank I can rely on to allow me access to my money at the times I most need it. This is an appalling way to provide a banking service. Reviewed on: 23rd February 2023
