Halifax Evacuated?!

Halifax loans department – “Thank-you for calling. Due to emergency procedures, this building has been evacuated. Please try again later.”

Been like that since about 1800hrs - reckon they kicked staff out early due to snow?

  • Fair d'os - Will try tomorrow! Was only going to phone and see if they would do a £3150 loan for the Mrs at a similar rate to the 8.9% they gave me yesterday on my £8k loan.

    They can wait for our business then! :rolleyes:
