Halifax ISA Review

Halifax offers market leading Individual Savings Accounts (ISA) with interest rates well above the Bank of England Base rate. Club this together with the fact that your interest is tax-free, and you will see why ISA's are the first place to go when looking for a savings account.

You can open a Halifax ISA with as little as £1, and can invest up to the maximum annual cash ISA limit of £5,100 per tax year. You can access your cash if required, but it is recommended that you leave it to grow, as you cannot replace your withdrawals back into your account without using more of your allowance  up.

With Halifax fixed rate bonds, you can manage your savings 24 hours a day using the online service, or by phone.
