Halifax I want to have my bank statement signed and stamped by my local bank branch

Hello, I would to ask you if you can return to my email a scan copy of my bank statement signed and stamped by my local bank branch, because I have to give this to a Bookmaker (Matchbook) who wants to freeze my account and seize my money because I login in my account in Brazil, and they saw it as I was not authorized to login outside of UK. I am not in the UK at the moment, I am in Brazil, so can you provide me this bank statement, signed and stamped in my email in pdf format please? I really apreciate your empathy and your generosity. My best wishes for you and your team for this new year coming, Cheers,

Frédéric Rambaud

Halifax Telephone banking

I am presently in conversation with Halifax regarding their telephone secondary security checks and have no wish to use the service and return to using my email address, the reason is due to the fact I am presently travelling Europe for the next three years and cannot receive phone connection in some countries without buying a local sim card the having to go on live to change the numbers and this is ridicules, I want Halifax to give me the option back to contact me by email. We know why they want your phone number and it is not for security reasons, it’s for tracking and Ai data. What can you do for me?

Desired outcome: get them to offer the email option

Halifax Mortgage helpline

Mortgage Reference [protected]

I purchased my property in 1975, my mortgage was arranged with Halifax.

There has been a small amount for some years accumulating interest.

I visited my local branch and was told I needed to contact the mortgage helpline. I telephoned today to obtain a final settlement figure so this could be paid. I waited 42 minutes before speaking to an advisor, my wife, who is a qualified accountant initially spoke to "Robert", but as her name is not on the mortgage, he was unable to speak to her. My wife passed the phone to me to obtain the information we required. We were unable to get the final settlement figure as I did not pass security. I provided mortgage reference number, address of the property, my date of birth, the balance left on the mortgage statement, but this states it is not a final settlement figure. Robert is the most impossible person I have had to deal with in my life - he then told me I have been locked out - goodbye. I spoke to him in a calm professional manner. I have always been happy with the Halifax, however, I am not happy today. I have paid £1061.10 on line, as I cannot obtain a final settlement figure. I will be writing to the Times about my experience wit Halifax today. Whilst listening to the automated service, I was made aware the call may be recorded, I hope it has been. I also agreed to take part in the survey, but imagine "Robert" will block this. I have never been spoken to in such a supercilious manner. What has the Halifax come to?

Dr Iain Gibson-Ling Mb Bsc FFRCA

Desired outcome: I would appreciate a response

Halifax Change of address on child saving account

I have been trying to change the address on my daughter's savings account. I called and you sent me a form, to my old address! On the second attempt you sent the form to my new address, and I completed it with all information. I have just received the identical form, and asked to bring this into a bank branch with proof of my daughter's identify. My daughter is 12, so she doesn't have any of the suggested forms of identity that have her address on. In addition, all the Halifx bank branches near me have either closed, or are only open during limited hours in the week (so it is not possible for me to attend a branch to sort his out!).

This was opened via post years ago, so I should be able to manage this account via post without the need to go into a branch.

This is so frustrating, it doesn't sound like the person I spoke to on the phone initially listened to me at all. As they sent the form to my old address, and when I did get the form to my current address it was the wrong one. I don't see how completing the next form is going to make any difference, as it is the same one as the last form you sent.

Can you please help me sort this out?

I attach a scan of my driving license, which has the address. I attach a scan of my daughter's identity card. My name should be on the account, as I opened it and used my ID for the purpose of opening this account too.

Desired outcome: After more than a year, it would be nice if you could simply change the address!!

Halifax Current account/ savings account

February 2020 my primary email account blocked on Microsoft and I believe this was violated by Halifax bank who still only send important documents here knowing they blocked my account.
April 2020 tried to buy BTC but was blocked and immediately frozen out of my account. Phoned from overseas and they reopened again. 2 weeks later tried to buy BTC again, same thing happened and I was reinstated after phoning from overseas. I wrote and complained to the ombudsman who never once replied.
May to end July 2020. Started up a company and still in August 2021 waiting for documents to set me up. During this time submitted all details to a company and every time sent something it was unreadable because of software Halifax illegally installed in my system.
2nd August 2020. Getting end result for company set up. Refused on both my accounts and later system fault which destroyed all and I mean all communication until December 23rd 2020 when I managed to get onto Facebook. No telephone no internet . Had been put on a looper system with a stags and bluekai program that they had installed controlling my whole system. Wrote to Halifax numerous times and know for a fact that they were possibly the only company who was in contact but never once helped. Sent numerous letters as photos to try and get through then money ran out in September and sometimes no food for 5 days. A letter a week to Halifax with no reply.
Xmas day 2020. Managed to get online, a miracle straight to Halifax website who said I now had to go through Lloyd's bank. So I got there was messaged that Halifax had closed both my accounts on November 23rd and that Lloyd's would deal with me now. That was the last contact with Lloyd's bank who as a parting message said that they knew everything about me.
January 2021. Phoned many times as finally my number started to work again on my phone. Contacted Halifax asking about my account, passed to many different sections until money ran out. Starved for 3 days with no food because of this. Cousin contacted me and sent some money for me to phone bank. Was also given reference number to contact so phoned. Nobody had a clue and led around departments till money on phone ran out. This time was advised to return to UK by them who said that my account had been closed because of fraud. Later on it was unsafe account and then fraud again. I explained to them I had no money and enquired that I maybe could swim back from Thailand to the UK. Don't think they understood. I believe it must be a requirement to have the IQ of a goldfish to join Halifax bank. Anyway still starving hungry.
February/ march 2021. Had a conversation with someone who gave me hope and I really believed that something finally was getting done. Not at all, got a message online saying couldn't help me but would I phone again. What go without more food and another wanted phone call in which lied to, sent to many department, money runs out and left to starve again.
March/July 2021. Went on their app as this could save me money but what a joke they refused to help me unless I phoned and I explained that I did not have enough money to phone them. They then blocked me off Halifax app with password incorrectly sent too many times, again, lies. At end of July I managed to get on app with my computer which had been fixed and thought simple link might work. They phoned but locked my phone so couldn't confirm. That day my computer shut down completely and has not worked since. Also found out that Halifax had made me a developer and I know nothing about this. Also various people trying to contact me have noted that I have had all programs changed so that I can be blocked.
August 14th 2021. Finally back on Halifax bank app demanding what was going on. Demanded where company documents were and end user product. Advised to phone. Clicked on this Lloyd's program. Not a clue again developer jargon. One hour later phone crashed with message of overheating every time I opened phone. Did a factory reset and phone became stable but not really much happening still. Trying to download apps with message of waiting for wifi. Sent message to Halifax before crash accusing them of putting illegal software onto my system, violating human and civil rights, leaving me to die in a foreign country during a pandemic, not sending end user product for business, defamation of character, etc.
Yesterday, August 2021. Phoned Halifax as realized they had blocked my primary account making sure I could not get into my Dell computer. Still cannot get anything online done like Google pay or getting my own website because yes, HALIFAX BANK have denied me every turn and I worked out yesterday that all my profits now would have earned me about2-300000 in Stirling. Alas not a penny. Last night 10pm with no money now till whenever I phoned Halifax from Thailand with my food money. Was put on hold for 10 minutes. Blazing angry by this time, talked to lady called Tracy I believe was Scottish, explained the problem and no files on the Halifax system. Very strange. She tried hard I will admit but nothing on system. She said she would put me on hold and talk to the manager. I looked on telephone and time was 10.32 pm Thailand time. I waited and waited and then 10.47pm she answered and she said she couldn't hear me and I knew she felt sorry to hang up on me but I reckon the manager had told her to hang up on me. I knew she heard me. So that money which I spent phoning halfax bank I might as well have burnt it because all the use they were. Last night I sent a message listing as many companies as I could for everyone to know the truth and I do hopefully fingers crossed got to British newspapers because I'm dying to tell people what this shambles of a bank have done. I would like to know how many people stuck abroad have they done this to. Who have died because of it, ie from starvation, suicide etc. I have tried suicide twice in this period and luckily I'm still here. What gives me strength is the hope of bringing these [censored] to justice and asking parliament to strip them of godlike powers over your account. It's my money not theirs. Hopefully soon this absolute disgraceful situation will be over with. I know that Halifax blocked my emails when I tried to send a message to British press before

Desired outcome: Compensation and taken to parliament with this story. Halifax to pay all damages and losses. People to know about and to make sure that they answer for their crimes sure

Halifax Stay away from these guys

I have a Visa debit card and my husband also has one. When it ran out, I received my new one straight away but my husband's didn't arrive. After numerous visits to various branches and letters to our own branch and head office, we eventually received a letter advising they were putting a cheque for £75 into our bank account for all the inconvenience of my having to go to petrol stations etc whenever my husband wanted to use his card and produce my own. While we were pleased that in the end, after about two months, the card eventually arrived it was a considerable inconvenience and worry that it had maybe got lost in the post and someone else could use it.

I set up a moneyback current account with Halifax in Liverpool on october 2007. I requested no over drauft faccility on this account. This account chargess £28 for unarranged overdraft as stated in my bank statement.
On the 19 of october 2009 I went in to an overdraft of £30 unknowen to me. In December I received 2 letters Dated 20 december and 30 December stating I owed £95 in fees as a result. 1st letter arrived Christmas eve
2nd letter arriving 6th January as I now live in Dublin. I rang up on the 7th of January to dispute these charges to be told that it is now £240. On the 8th of January I rang again to be told Novembers fees were not added and it is £400 plus I owe and growing by the day. A heated debate took place over the phone and I drawed their attention to the fact that the account I set up charged £28 for an unarranged overdraft the reply was that they had changed the account to a reward account which carries a penalty of £5 a day fee for an unarranged overdraft even though I got no notification of such nor did I agree to such. I have offered to pay the £30 i was overdrawen eight weeks ago to settle this matter but that was not accepted. Upon further reflection and with the help of my parents I offered to pay £95 as demanded on the 30th of December to settle this matter but this to was refused. I did not set up this type of account . Something is wrong with all this. I am currently unemployed living in dublin. I don't think a money lender/shark would charge as much money on £30 out standing for 8 weeks.
Please Please Help.

My son transferred money from Singapore to my account in UK with all details correct according to my monthly account statement. After ten working days I still have not received the money and trying to resolve the situation by phone I have given up. It seems that the BIC number on my statement has been changed without my knowledge, the Halifax has merged or been taken over by RBS, and now they blame the adverse weather conditions ! If I do not have my money by January 1st, I am going to have to travel to UK to visit my Halifax branch and have a punch up.

Halifax Scam charges

Contacted ombudsman about claiming bank charges back under the hardship rules.Was sent the forms sent them back with all my proofs of hardship.After hearing nothing for a few weeks i rang halifax and explained my case the lady came back to me after a while and said the person who was making the decision on my case was taking too long and had been told to do it that week. A couple of days later i recieved a letter from him declining my hardship claim. I just couldnt understand it because the reason that was given was we had enough money and we were living within our overdraft limit.I rang to speak to the person who made this decision but he refused to speak to me.I then asked for an overdraft increase because we couldnt afford to keep going overdrawn but was refuse because YES CAN YOU BELIEVE IT we keep going overdrawn and carnt keep within the limit we have.Claim has gone back to ombudsman to wait another two months to be resubmitted because of back log. Mean while we continue to struggle and feed the children.

On 17/11/2008 I visited Corby Halifax Branch to make a deposit of £180, unfortunately for the second time they were having technical problems and could not make any transaction, the attendant did however write me a receipt and assured me once the systems were back up & running the money will be credited into my account, I advised that it has to go in by the 20/11/2008 as I have a bank transfer going out, she reassured me that it should be today, they may have a back log but assured me once again it will be fine, I called the talking bank today to found out my balance, and to my horror the £360 bank transfer had not been done, therefore I spoke to Kate from customer services explained the situation she advised that she spoken with Corby and they had no system problems on that day, and the £35 bank charges would be kept and deducted on the 15/12/2008, due to insufficient funds in my account, I was then put onto her manager Sean who once again I explained the situation and extremely argumentively he was trying to catch me out, called Corby brance again and would not take the charges off me.

I am adding this to a list of complaints against banks which I hope will eventually reach a swelll that drowns their CEO bonuses until practice changes.

My husband was made redundant two years ago. Since that time we have been trying to survive on his supply teaching while I finish a degree so I can also re enter the workplace better qualified. Our bank Halifax is one of the most manipulative sources of bad practice I have ever seen. Won't bore with details. Here's the point. My husband is paid EVERY Friday for his supply teaching. Yesterday, Thursday, our account was overdrawn by 4.00. We could not move money from another account with the SAME BANK that was in credit because the bank had put a block on this account and made it 'enquiry only online'. The electronic letter promptly arrived this morning (the day my husband's wage was paid in by CHAPS payment at midnight LAST night) that they would be charging me 35.00. I want that 35.00 charge dropped.

Much more than that, having working in the conveyancing department of a solicitors where CHAPS payments are made all day every day, I would like someone like Watchdog to name and shame ALL financial institutions who tie up the individual's money for DAYS while they trade with that money under the guise of 'it takes x working days ' (a term that goes back to horse and carriage days). Anyone who works in a CHAPS oriented industry KNOWS that those payments are located to the MINUTE when you close a conveyancing deal... COULD YOU PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE publicise this process -- the banks in effecgt besides getting massive handouts from us now that are visible - continue to take these INVISIBLE handouts of free money to trade on while it stays ' under the radar'... if enough people knew this, we coiuld probably do something lovely like bring down the Chancellor's Downing Street website (oh dear - its off the radar) until SOMEONE with some accountability stops robbing the man on the street.
