Open a business account in a jiffy

At 9:10 am on Monday, I contacted HSBC bank to open a business account. They signposted me to their website and kinetic app. By 10:15 am on Monday, I had a business account.. Within 48 hours, I received the debit card for this account. Reviewed on: 29th March 2023

So quick, So easy, BEST Banking Transition I have EVER made

5
As a now 3-year old business, we were looking to upgrade our bank account whilst maintaining an on-the-go approach to business banking in general. It couldn't have been easier or quicker. I also got access to instant customer support who were kind and generous with their time when I needed help arranging an address update for the debit card which itself arrived within 2 working days. Brilliant service, easy-to-use app, fantastic support and a seamless transition for our business banking needs. Top notch all round. Reviewed on: 20th March 2023
