Halifax to Lloyds - App notifications issue?

freeguy1984uk

Oh hello,

Just wondering if anyone else's app notifications have stopped since being moved from the Halifax app to the Lloyds app?

Brand new Android phone I bought earlier this year on latest OS and app versions etc.

I don't need techy advice as I work with phones, I just want to know if it's just me its broken for or not please? :-)

Thanks!

Nope, if anything for me they have actually got better. Have you checked within the app they are actually switched on?

This is what I did yesterday, after receiving an email from Lloyds about Halifax notifications.

I seem to be having issues with Rewards. The same ones appear in both Halifax and Lloyds, and when I activate one in one it also activates the same one in the other. Never used to do that, and I went to Harvester a couple of days ago and used my Halifax credit card for the 8% cash, and now the offer's disappeared from the Halifax app, but is still there in the Lloyds

The rewards have been linked and common across all 3 brands, Lloyds - Halifax - BOS, for a while now and you can select any one of the accounts / cards across all the brands to receive the cashback. If you have multiple accounts selected for the different brands the system will select the one it is going to pay into in future. There may be a difference if the brands are not seeing you as the same person. Disappearing from one is strange, they don't normally disappear when used.

I moved to a Lloyds card as the cashback was better for first year - leaving the Halifax one dormant, and ditched the Halifax app too.

Halifax offered me an enhanced 0.5% cashback on mine, runs to December I think or maybe end of December, bit of a boost vs Lloyds Ultra which ends for me in October

This is not the case for everybody.

I have no rewards at all in BoS.

Until last week, I have seen some same, some different rewards in Lloyds and Halifax. Lloyds selections didn't show in Halifax, and Halifax selections didn't show in Lloyds.

End of last week, the Halifax rewards disappeared entirely, together with the selected offers.

All my 3 have same e-mail, phone and log in credentials so probably an ongoing joining up exercise picking the easy & obvious first. I didn't have anything in BOS as I didn't have a card of any sort with them so no opportunity to get cashback then when all accounts became visible across all brands the cashback appeared.

A lot of them have always been the same or similar, sometimes with different percentages. But never completely the same until recently (for Lloyds and Halifax - my Bank of Scotland offers are still different).

Its only the last four weeks or so I've noticed Lloyds and Halifax are completely interchangeable, but I used one and it's mysteriously disappeared from the app brand I used it with, but still in the other one I didn't use it with.

I think I may have to keep a close eye to make sure I get the correct amount of cashback, as it appears the merging between Halifax and Lloyds may not go completely smoothly.

Disappearing when used seems to be the new normal. I used my Lloyds card and the offer has gone from all 3 apps. £11 back from a fill of petrol, very welcome.
