Classy

Always classy and happy to help Reviewed on: 18th November 2018

Good

Never had any problems with them. Reviewed on: 18th November 2018

Good free account with savings attached.

Easy to set up, although had to make an appointment to organise my switch to them from another firm. I primarily use them as they have a branch near my work, so it's convenient to pay in money, primarily through the automated machines. Staff have always been helpful in branch when needed.

consistently helpful and easy to resolve any issues with, no problems in the 6+ years ive been using them Reviewed on: 11th November 2018

Great

Great banking experience , been with them for years ans really happy with them Reviewed on: 11th November 2018

Low overdraft charges

I've been with HSBC for a long time and that's mainly because it's always been so easy. Good online banking and the fact that they don't have a set charge for dipping into your overdraft ( just a daily interest which works out far cheaper) means I'd be reluctant to change.
