Halifax Rewards Debit Card

Stalkdog

Hey all,

Stupid question really, but are the latest Halifax Rewards Debit Cards still the same boring dark blue, or have they recently been updated? The little card icon next to my account on online banking shows a new style of card...

Thanks

Mine is blue and silver, and has a sparkly effect on it. It's a nice card, nicer than my purple Natwest card

Mine is Black and sparkly - quite credit card looking TBH

Blue and sparkly is the free reqard account
Black and sparkly is the ultimate reward account that is £12.50 p/m I believe

I take it you have been transferred onto the new online banking system then?

No, not yet... just saw it on the new demo. Have people been transferred to the new system yet? Looks a lot better than the current

It's the same as lloyds tsb's online banking, it will be an improvement

The loss of roll numbers is taking a little bit of adjustment for me, but my only real issue is that I get an email telling me that I have an online statement / letter but then I have no idea which account it relates to and have to trawl through all of them to find it!

Am I missing something?

Personally I prefer the current system. The lloyds system has less functions than the HBOS one had before they started removing them to prepare for the new system. But they claim to be adding these back and more over the next 18 months I believe. Shall have to wait and see.

On your paper free documents section, there is a drop-down tab, where you can change the document view, so that you can only see documents that are unread. That means you dont have to go through loads of statements/letters youve already seen. Im not sure if this feature will carry forward to the new system. I cant see anything similar on my Lloyds online banking, as I still get paper statements for my lloyds account
