Good Points: High rate of interest.
General comments: Trouble opening this online. Branch finally did it but the account kept being closed even though regular monthly standing order payments HAD been received in the account.
Not worth the hassle of trying to set this up for 7 months and not getting anywhere. Complete waste of my time.

Not worth the hassle. Have had this account since it started, for my son and daughter, filled in children's tax forms and every year tax is taken off! Every year I have one heck of time making phone calls and visiting bank to rectify this. Wonder what will happen next year. Hope your reading this ACCOUNTANTS!

6 weeks after opening the accounts, they still could not tell me when I would be able to expect the monthly payments to be made. IT couldn't fix it - they hadn't come across the problem before, but still no further forward. I wasn't prepared for my children to lose out, so closed the accounts and went elsewhere.

If I hadn't personally checked the passbook a/c balance, this fiasco would not have been highlighted.To date my query remains unresolved!Thus the money is still sitting in someone's else's account!

We were led to believe that it we put £100 a month into our sons account the interest was 10% giving him £1320 after one year-this was NOT the case even though this is what we were actually told.

You do NOT receive 10% - It is more like 5% - on Halifax Childrens Regular Saver.
You receive a 'dividend' on anything you deposit throughout the year, the first month it's 85p, the 2nd 1.00 etc. The most interest you can earn on this account is 61.85 over the year. Considering you will have to deposit the maximum of 1,200 for this you can clearly see the interest earned is 5%, not the 10% advertised.
