I recently applied and received a MBNA balance transfer card but was then told I can’t transfer from anyone else .It appears Halifax have the same rules ,are there any companies that still allow this ?

Yes, most of them. The cardholder name is generally not asked.
If you're particularly risk averse, lenders such as Barclaycard specifically say it's ok.
