Halifax Reward: How many accounts can you have?

oxenryd

Hi all

Quick question : How many Reward Accounts can you have with Halifax?

I know it used to be 3 but I've got it in my head that it's now only 1.

I have searched through all the T+Cs but can't find anything, I must be blind.

Thanks

don't know why I have this feeling but i think it's because I saw it on another post a couple of months ago....

think its still 3 as someone tried to open a fourth and was told 3 was the limit.....

i cant really remember!

I've got 3.

Two in my name and one joint. I've had the two in my name for 10 years (were Current accounts, now (in the last month) Reward Accounts).

It was up to three per person until early November. A few people managed to open more than three by opening accounts with both Halifax and BOS, but most (if not all) found the extra accounts were closed a few days later.

It is now one joint and one individual account per person. Those who opened more than that before the rules changed can still hold their three accounts (so far, anyway).

Indeed. Between BOS and Halifax, you were allowed a total of 3 Reward accounts.

It seems that if you had 3 when the rules changed on 1st November, you were allowed to keep them, but after that you were only allowed to open one.

I hope that is the case, i opened mine start of October and have 3 accounts - so fingers crossed i get to keep all 3.
