Halifax Reward Current Account reviews (196)

An Excellent Free Bank Account

5
The Reward Current Account is a free account that pays you £3 per month if you stay in credit plus there are a number of cashback offers that you can earn using your debit card, these are paid very quickly compared to most cashback. Overdraft charges are cheap at just 1p per day per £7 owed and charges are applied each day so there is no big bill at the end of the month. Reviewed on: 7th February 2018

No hassle, pays cashback

5
Swapped from another bank to this one using the switch scheme. Had good customer service in branch and on the phone when required. App works well and the cashback offers are great - definitely helps get a little back at the end of each month. Reviewed on: 6th February 2018

App is great

Have found Halifax's banking app to be the easiest to use out of all major banks Reviewed on: 2nd February 2018

were once great now hollowed out bad

used to love Halifax, been with them for over 10 years. The last 3 years noticed a massive drop in customer care, empty branches, absolutely no appreciation for customer loyalty. On top of that what was a simple easy account seem to be changing by the months with various rewards being pulled, reduced or simply scrapped. Constant tickering with the terms and conditions. Last straw was this week when having misplaced my wallet - branch flatly refused to help to draw a minimal GBP10 from my account. This the same branch I have been with for over 10 years, and has in the past allowed me to draw minimal amounts out of my account after a thorough security check. More than happy top sell my useless services though. Bye Halifax - good luck with the Lloyds rebrand. Reviewed on: 25th January 2018

Easy to use with rewards

4
An easy to use current account with a debit card. Monthly reward when you pay in a certain amount. Nice to get something for nothing. Reviewed on: 11th January 2018

Excellent Free Bank Account with Benefits

5
The Reward Current Account provides £3 free every month for staying in credit, having minimum 2 direct debits and minimum £750 paid into the account. There are also cashback extras which give cash rewards for shopping using the Visa debit card that comes with the account. Overdraft charges are minimal at 1p per day for every £7 of overdraft, great for those of us with small to medium sized overdrafts. Staff are always helpful and the online banking service and mobile app are excellent, very easy to use. Reviewed on: 3rd January 2018

I really enjoy the reward current account as it does everything you need and you get a reward if you stay in credit every month. Reviewed on: 31st December 2017

Great current account!

5
This is the best bank account I’ve had so far. It’s great to have the cash back rewards and the monthly fee for keeping your account straight. Fantastic incentive! Reviewed on: 12th December 2017
