Halifax £5 reward

Hi,

Can I transfer two lots of £500 into a halifax reward account to get the £5 or has it got to be one payment of £1000?

    It can be as many payments as you like as long as the total in is at least £1000.

    You would get it but providing your not just transfering it for the sake of £5 reward :) bank seems to be wise to that now. And i think you get the reward for £1000 worth of transactions within a month.

    Whoops! I was simply going to transfer the money in! So if I do transfer the money in , I won't get it? Is that right pcombo?

    I'm not saying you wont get it. But if you do that every month just to get the reward they will click on lol.

    what you mean collect £15 you only get £5 each month no matter how much you put in. Unless your sad and have 3 of the accounts.
