I have had my HSBC account for 3 years now, and barely use the account as it is not my main account (which is with Barclays). I did once take out £300 and had the Customer Service team calling me at 9pm a few days later saying that I need to pay money in....! I paid the money in very shortly a ...

Earlier this year I needed to extend my HSBC Student Account overdraft in order to get a train ticket home, no problem the nice lady in the branch said.
When my Internet banking broke, went to my local branch, helped me reset it and even helped me test it to make sure it worked. I needed to increas ...

Endless list!!!! Every service a bank should provide was provided poorly by HSBC. Customer service was poor with long waiting times. Huge hassle to try and pay money in to my account and even more hassle to take money out. However, the worst sin they are guilty of is having NO flexibility in their o ...

DON'T SIGN UP TO HSBC! I found them unhelpful, they don't cater for people whose loans are spent on accommodation. Their overdrafts are low and you should expect a lot of cold calls from their office advising you to put more money into your account!

HSBC is totally horrible! I applied literally 5 times for student account in HSBC but I received no replies at all! I applied through branch with my documents, sent them by mail and applied online but none of them gave me any response! When I finally called them up they told me if you did not receiv ...
