Review of the Halifax, Reward Current Account:

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

Mortgage with Halifax means being bullied and disrespected

1
I have a mortgage with Halifax and I called to change the interest fee in my advantage. Their mortgage advisor kept trying to convince me not to do it, saying it will be in my disadvantage, although it was in my advantage I had the right to change it. Then he bullied me asking me many times when am I going to finish paying my debt, although I have 30 years left on my loan. I paid a fee to change my interest fee and the Halifax bank doesn’t show that they received the payment not even the third day after I made the payment. They’re postponing me until they change the interest fees again to higher ones. I am drained and I don’t recommend this bank because they’re just bullies and thieves Reviewed on: 30th August 2022

Life saver for phones

My partners phone broke. The process to sort out a replacement was so easy and quick. Reviewed on: 13th August 2022

Excellent service!

Always have gone above and beyond for me, have a few accounts with different providers but this is the one I find most user friendly. Reviewed on: 28th March 2022

Great Experience

I tried the digital Neo-Banks but they fall well short of the service from Halifax who have a great digital offering backed up by a solid high street presence with solid and reliable customer service. Reviewed on: 17th February 2022

Decent current account that pays me £5 a month

5
I really like this current account, it pays £5 a month in the titular "reward" providing certain criteria are met (paying in £1500 per month and spending £500 on debit card). £60 per year for just doing what I normally do is pretty good, particularly when you look at the feeble interest rates on most savings accounts. The app is great - you can see multiple accounts in one place, freeze and unfreeze your debit card, make instant payments etc. Definitely recommend. Reviewed on: 2nd February 2022

£5 a month for nothing

Constant early rate cuts
