    There aren't any rewards any more for the Halifax Rewards account - that's what this thread is about, they've been scrapped. 
    Halifax would argue that having mobile alerts, a contactless debit card, a variable (they forgot to add paltry) interest rate which is only available if you have 2 direct debits going out per month, no debit card fees abroad and "exclusive savings offers" (whatever they are) are now the "rewards". 🙄

    I don’t have anymore DD’s to use & can’t find what the rewards are for the Halifax rewards account 
    They have replaced rewards with benefits.

    Call those "Benefits"? They're not our friends.

    I just wish they would pay what is due, rather than telling us it's coming. We know already that it's due by the end of October, so what is the point of sending an SMS.
    At least we now know it's definitely coming. I am guessing they probably have had a few phonecalls about it asking "is it definitely happening?" "when?" "how?"

    I am guessing the payments will go out in batches so they can't be more precise right now.
    Yes, you're right. I bet Halifax are as fed up with the rundown of this scheme as we are waiting for it to complete. I'm itching to downgrade my Reward accounts but need to hold off until the payments arrive. I wonder if the batches will start to go out this week. Maybe alphabetical order by surname.
    Bet that will please Mr Aardvark!😄
