Are Bank of Scotland and Halifax the same?

Hi everyone

I've recently did a balance transfer from my Virgin credit card to a Bank of Scotland credit card and also a Halifax credit card.

Ive had a right hassle trying to log in to either account. Anyway, I've finally logged in to one of them so far (the Bank of Scotland) and both my cards show up. Is that correct that both show up?

If I can't remember the log in details for Halifax it shouldn't matter as I could make a payment to each card from the Bank of Scotland log in.

Im asking because I don't want to end up making a double payment on one card and neglect the other.

I have a BoS Vantage account, a Halifax Reward account and they both show up regardless of whether I log in use Halifax or Bos.


Handy for transferring the money to get my cash reward.


£1000 in out in seconds.


I know it's less than £1000 but I just transfer £1000.

Halifax Credit Cards are issued by Bank of Scotland plc,

There are multiple ways to pay a Halifax credit card account ... you don't need to logon to their online account management to do so.

HBOS is thankfully consigned to the bin of history.

Halifax is now simply one Bank of Scotland's brand names.
