Halifax Clarity

Hello, can anyone tell me if the Halifax Clarity offers a joint card holder or do we have to have two separate cards? My husband has applied for one and has been accepted but at no time did it ask if he wanted a joint card holder...


Any help would be appreciated
Thanks
Que Sera, Sera

    I have two additional cardholders on mine.
    Everything will be alright in the end so, if it’s not yet alright, it means it’s not yet the end

    Thanks for the response - is it something you can do after the card arrives? He only applied for it today but we are going in 4 weeks so want to be prepared in case I'll need to apply for my own!

    Yes, I had DH as an additional cardholder from opening but had DD added a few months ago when she turned 18. Took a couple of weeks IIRC.
    Get him to ring them and ask if you can be added to application :)

    It might be an idea to get a separate account if you can, so that if one account is blocked you can use the other, and it could be easier to manage eg you use could one account for cash and one for purchases - pay off the cash one as soon as you get back but leave the purchase one till the due date on the statement.

    I have one but dont get a £5 reward every month. Isnt it one of their bank accounts that give the reward not the CC.

    wouldnt want to confuse anyone

    If you have a reward current account and a Clarity card, and pay £750(?) into the current account and spend at least £300 a month on the Clarity card, you get £5 reward paid into both :)
