HSBC Kinetic Business Account reviews (1934)

Review of the HSBC Kinetic, Business Account:

Great

Everything good Reviewed on: 10th March 2022

Best / easiest of the New Business accounts that I applied for.

Having heard from other small businesses / new businesses how long and difficult, it can be to set up a new account, I tried a few. two high streets, and two online providers. The one high street used my 10+ years of banking with them as a selling point. I am still waiting for them to respond. The online ones are also still in process. HSBC was able to pull full / fuller information from companies house, so did not need to provide a second time / verify. So much better of experience than I was expecting. Would highly recommend.

Now that you have your account we hope you're getting to grips with the app, ordered your debit card and started using the account. If you need help we're here with our in-app live chat so if you need to get in touch with our team (not a robot Response date: 31st March 2023
