    I dealt with Halifax when opening both my daughters and then my sons account. On both occasions they tried to get me to open an account that I didn't want. I found them very unhelpful.

    Interest good at first (5.55%)
    Opening was simple
    FREEBIES

    You have no card so you have to go to the branch to get the money out rather than just paying by simple card.
    Interest now (about 3%)

    Halifax Save4 it Children's Saving Account is an OK account. The opening was fairly easy.
