    I have been with HSBC for around 14 years, they were very helpful with processing my loans and over draft as a student.
    Now that appears to have changed...
    I don ' t remember being told I ' d slipped over my overdraft limit and seemed more willing to charge me rather than to tell you. £25 pen ...

    I'm very disappointed with these guys. I've had a very bad year with them. I was £11 overdrawn for less than 24hrs and when I went in to make a deposit I found I'd been charged £25! a few days later same thing happened, this time for a couple of pounds and bam another £25 was ch ...

    I was with HSBC for about 6 years and in that time I was charged over £1000 in fees- usually because the fees added each month pushed my overdraft further into the red, causing more fees. Despite repeated attempts to sort out a payment plan with them, asking them to freeze charges so I could ...

    In 4 years I had only gone overdrawn once, by £9 and for a matter of hours before I moved money to the account from my HSBC instant access savings. When abroad I phoned HSBC and got my balance then withdraw money I was told I had. HSBC had not deducted a pending cash withdrawal from 2 days e ...

    I have been with HSBC for almost 2 years and have not had a single good experience. From them losing my card and pin for over 6 weeks, to their processes not allowing me to have print out of bank statement with a company letter head (this affected my visa application!), to HSBC not closing my accou ...

    HSBC - i have been with them for 12 years. They charge you £25 for going overdrawn for 1 day and then you receive a letter saying an temporary overdraft is set up you go in and they are unable to give you an overdraft of £45 to cover a direct debt then when it goes out they charge you & ...

    I hate HSBC bank! I have been a customer of theirs for 11 years and they have never once helped me out when my finances were getting in a mess. On several occasions, I have asked for an increase in my overdraft, by less than £500 temporarily, and you'd think I was asking for a kidney.

    Someone sent me $6k on the 28th March 2006 via the telegraphic transfer method to ensure reliability. My friend sent the money but put in the wrong account number by one missing zero and as of today's date October 1st 2007 the funds are still not with me, at no point has HSBC contacted me to ask if ...

    I've been with HSBC for 14 years and have never had a major issue with them. I have gone overdrawn a few times, but have always phoned them once I've realized and convinced them not to charge fees.
    Also, they are flexible if you need to increase your overdraft for a few weeks at the end of the mon ...

    I have been with HSBC for nearly 6 years now, and I have to say overall, I am impressed with them. When I was always in credit they have been nothing but nice to me. However, you cross that line, like I did when I brought my first house, and they come down on you like a tonne of bricks. Over the pas ...
