Halifax branches across the UK will be closed on both the Early May Bank Holiday (Monday 5th May 2025) and the Spring Bank Holiday (Monday 26th May 2025). This closure applies to all regions, including England, Wales, and Scotland, as these are official bank holidays.
During these days, in-branch services will not be available. However, you can still access your accounts and manage your banking using online banking, the Halifax mobile app, or ATMs. For urgent support, Halifax’s telephone lines are also closed on bank holidays, so please plan your banking needs in advance.
