Hi.
Currently thinking of switching away from Halifax (as I've recently had a bad experience with them stopping a DD for my mortgage payment then claiming I was in arrears and trying to charge me fees even though it was their error) and was wondering what people thought of First Direct for day-to-day banking and their offset mortgage?
Attracted to them as we're thinking of emigrating to Canada in the next couple of years and, being part of HSBC, we will be able to essentially transfer the relationship to Canada meaning we won't be starting from scratch with no credit history.
However, don't want to switch if people's experiences are overwhelmingly negative...
TIA. Garry
