HALIFAX

Advantages: Friendly efficient service
Disadvantages: none

. However, I didn?t find them to have a very ethical approach towards their customers, after going over my overdraft limit by 72p, a mistake I quickly rectified. Despite my quick reaction to this measly but misfortunate mistake over 18 months I was hit witch charges month after month, totalling over £2000, which took me over 1 year and a solicitor?s letter to re-claim. Throughout those 18 months I was hit with bailiff?s letters, and also received a letter that came on blank paper, simply showing the words ?URGENT, Contact Ron on (for example) 07665243356. That was it. But it turned out to be The Co-op sneakily trying to get me to call them, as if I had previously avoided contacting them. Enter the Halifax. Those irritating all-singing, all-dancing adverts (you may call them) actually caught my eye and attracted me to the Halifax. I found ...

Review of Halifax

Halifax - infelixible, inconsiderate, and greedy

Advantages: wide range of accounts, telephone and internet banking
Disadvantages: let me down in an emergency, refused flexibility when I needed it

a day from cash machines, up to £1000 total in branch, and the ability to withdraw more with reasonable notice. Halifax cards also work on a "Link" System, meaning I can withdraw money from cash machines other than the Halifax. Most times, there is not charge for this, although some of the independent cash machines in corner shops and the like tend to charge £1.50 a time. You can set up standing orders and direct debits on your account also. This is convenient if you always have money in the bank and don't want to go to the hassle of traipsing to the post office to pay bills, or paying them to the companies over the phone. The downside is - if a standing order is returned unpaid due to a lack of funds in your account, they charge you £39 for the privilege of being told you missed a bill, and a further £28 if your account go ...

Review of Halifax

Helpful Halifax

Advantages: good staff, easy application process
Disadvantages: I am still still waiting for one

I have been with the Halifax for about six years now, and have had no problems whatsoever. I have had a savings account for that time, and from when I first started, I have had no complaints. The staff were very friendly and helpful when I went in and told them what I wanted, and it did not take long for them to set up my account. Only a book account as I was so young, but as soon as I turned 16 and started earning some money, they gave me a cardcash account, which comes with a Solo card (very handy when shopping on the net, as more and more sites except it) and did not charge me for withdrawing cash from any cash machine. Any cash machine, even Natwests! I have since opened an account online which is called a 'Websaver' which has a very competitive interest rate, and can be accessed very easily from any computer, ensuring you don ...
