Banks Transaction fees are too high

The overhead of additional fees for all transactions other than my own currency is too high. I've also used better bank apps. If you want an example, I can share the banks I currently use. Reviewed on: 10th March 2022

Simple and easy

HSBC Kinetic is slick app that streamlines the financial side of my business Reviewed on: 10th March 2022

Smooth and Easy

5
My experience with HSBC has been such that I haven't had to think about it much - which is great. The application to open a business account was straightforward, which isn't always the case as I am a foreigner residing in the UK, and everything functions smoothly. Using the app has been very easy too, and with the first 12 months being free of charge, it's a no-brainer. Reviewed on: 10th March 2022

Very easy

5
I can easily access to app to make payments, wages and use for my business. If I have any queries that can also be done in the app and the response time is very good. I am extremely pleased and think it’s the new way forward! Reviewed on: 10th March 2022

Easy to use and pretty good for a new app

4
It’s straightforward and feels more secure than a lot of the other app-based business bank accounts. It’s still not got all the features you’d expect available but it’s a new service and everyone I’ve dealt with regarding the account has been very helpful and communicative about the limitations. Overall good vibes. Reviewed on: 10th March 2022
