  • In Halifax branches ona daily basis you can get £300 from machine, £1200 at counter. Any more just need to let them know the day before so that they can be sure there is enough cash in the bank - believe me I''ve seen someone draw £87'000 in cash

    Obviously different service in Scotland - We regularly give out more than that over the counter - just have to do additional checks ..... wonder why there are different rules down south?

    Plus our local Halifax is easier to reach than my existing Barclays branch and open on Saturdays which is handy for us 9 to 5ers!

    Halifax and dual branded branches have different rules

    Even if the cash is in the bank - at least 24 hours notice must be given for anything over £1200 - and then there are extra checks to complete
