    The hotukdeals thread has info on the 500 spend work around if people want/need further info.
  • To save reading back 120 pages, and my memory is shot - can anyone confirm if it's ok to have two sole Halifax Reward accounts and if so do you get two reward payments assuming you meet criteria on both (pay 2 x £1500 in & 2 x £500 debit card payments out)? 

    Cheers

    According to the Halifax website - one sole and one joint only can be Rewarded.

    Yea I guess, thanks. But just wondering if anyone has opened more and received rewards. The site isn't the same as the back-end application system. I've opened several Virgin accounts, NatWest Reward x2 etc so thought I'd try a second Hfx Reward. If not fine but I'm hopeful that it's doable ;)

    You can if its grandfathered rights from back in the days when you were allowed more than 1.

    Ive got 2 sole accounts in my name for this reason & both have paid out

    Thanks. So presumably being in new to Halifax (took advantage of current offer) it's not likely to go through? 😢

    It will go though.
    Most here have 3 or more accounts and received the fiver for all of them.
