A better online bank

Building a better Online Bank. You've told us what you want. And we've made a lot of improvements.

Your Online Banking service is now better, more secure and easier to use than ever before.

Online Banking statements

Better statements

You can now see statements for the last six years for your savings and current accounts. Even better, you can search them too. If you have a Halifax Credit Card, you can see a 'mini-statement' on the 'My Accounts' page and see statements for the last 3 months - making it even easier to keep track of your money.

Online Banking mobile alerts

Better information with mobile alerts

Avoid going over your overdraft limit by mistake. If you're a personal current account customer, you can register for our free mobile alerts service. Choose the alerts you want and get the information you need:

  • Weekly balance advice alerts. Keep on top of your balance with a weekly text.
  • Limit alerts. Find out if you're near or over an agreed overdraft limit.
  • Low balance alerts. Know when your balance drops below an amount that you choose.
  • High balance alerts. Know when your balance goes above an amount that you set.

Online Banking control and personalisation

Better control and personalisation

You can take control of your Online Banking experience to make it better suited to your needs. One way is to rename your accounts so that they show with a name that's chosen by you. For example: ‘Joint Account’ or ‘Holiday savings’ – whatever works for you.

Online Banking Security

Better security

We've made Online Banking more secure than ever before. We may call you when setting up payments to new people or companies. That way, we're certain you want the payment to be made. And you're confident that your accounts are safe.

Online Banking Payments

Better payments

Making payments between accounts just got better. We've made a number of changes and improvements to how you create and send payments:

  • Payments to Halifax Credit Cards go via Faster Payments so you can pay your bills much more quickly
  • You can search for companies by name when setting up a payment to pay regular household bills.
  • And for added peace of mind, you'll get a text confirming any new payment that is set up on your accounts.
