hi there...i have a halifax moneybank current account which basically gives me cashback every time i use my debit card....i think it is great as for the last 2 years i have receieved just over £100 cashback...which is so much more than i have ever received in interest!!!

just wanted to share it with you ...and wondered if anyone else had one!!:j

This account is unfortunately not available to new customers, and hasn't been since about the start of 2008.

It is great for those who already had it though!

Love mine too.

Especially good for online gambling!

Unfortunately they can change terms and conditions whenever they choose to.

I'd guess that the outcome of the bank charges case would probably lead to the death of this account next year.

that would be so annoying...i actually feel like i am getting something with this account!!! all my other accounts i used to get about 20p!!

This account also has an overdraft rate of just 6.9%!!!

I heard they were withdrawing it from existing customers too?

I have just rung the Halifax and the girl said yes they are taking them from existing customers, she couldn't tell me when as it hadn't be finalised yet and she did also say you would get your anniversary payment but she said expect to get a letter in the near future!:rolleyes:

If they pull it i might close the account out of principle.
If you want 1% cashaback some credit cards offer it (i think) - AMEX platinum card (v hard to get), Morgan and stanley (v hard to get) and Egg money (v hard to get) - I have been rejected for all 3!!!
