In news that may be of interest to online banking enthusiasts across the UK, banking institution Halifax has announced that it has completely revamped its virtual banking offering.
The new website features a host of additional features, such as simplifying the process by which online banking customers can transfer money between a current account and a savings account.
Moreover, people with an eligible current account will be given the opportunity to alter their overdraft limit over the web - meaning they will no longer need to head into a high street branch for the service.
Shoomon Perry, head of e-commerce at Halifax, commented on the revamped web portal.
"Our new online banking service offers a great new look along with improved navigation and new features to make using it even easier than before," she said.
Ms Perry added that the banking institution currently has 5.5 million registered virtual banking customers, which she indicated "shows how popular our online banking service is".
Halifax is owned by the FTSE 100-listed HBOS group, which is also the parent company of the Bank of Scotland.
