Dear Sir/Madam,
Halifax online is
constantly working to increase security for all
Online Banking users.
To ensure the integrity of our online payment
system, we periodically
review accounts. Your account might be
restricted due to numerous
login attempts into your online account.
Restricted accounts continue
to receive payments, but they are limited in
their ability to send or
withdraw funds. To lift up this restriction, you
need to confirm your
online banking details.
Click on the following link to confirm your online banking details.

You are required to provide all necessary
information completely

security reasons, we may have to close your
account
temporarily.
