Can you have more than 1 Halifax card?

I have a clarity card which I use regularly and pay off in full each month.

I am looking at 0% BT cards and see Halifax looks pretty good.

Does anyone know if you can hold more than 1 type of Halifax credit card?

    It appears so:
    Already have a Halifax credit card?

    You may be eligible to apply for a second credit card with us. To find out more about second cards give us a call on 0345 944 4555 (Mon-Sun, 24 hours).

    Excludes Student Credit Card customers, conditions apply.

    I find Barclaycard good for balance transfer offers.

    Thanks for that.

    As I was logging out of their banking site I found this link: http://www.halifax.co.uk/creditcards/help-guidance/existing-customers/second-card/

    Also, they happily move credit limits from one card to another over the phone in my experience.

    Several months ago I looked at the Halifax application form and if I remember rightly, one of the criteria was that "I don't have another Halifax card"

    Am I getting muddled or have they changed policy recently?

    The policy now is definitely you can have more than one, as when I rang about a credit limit increase they said I wasn't eligible, but was eligible for another card (go figure). I declined their offer, but my existing card didn't preclude me from an additional one.
