Current Account

£100 when you switch current account - offer ends 7 July

To qualify for this offer just open a Current Account  and use our switching service to transfer all of your active direct debits (minimum of two) and other regular payments, along with all your automated credits.

Only one offer per customer (including joint accounts). Offer not available for existing Halifax or Bank of Scotland current account holders or if you have closed a Halifax current account in the last 6 months.

Also, if you’re successful in applying for a planned overdraft there’ll be no daily fees payable for 6 months - if you exceed your planned overdraft limit fees will apply. Changing to another current account will mean you’ll be charged fees applicable to that account.

Offer also available on our Ultimate Reward Current Account (£15 monthly fee applies) and Reward Current Account. Further important information about the offer.
