Great service

Always had good customer service (granted as a premier customer) with prompt replies to emails as well. Decent interest offered on regular saver and on investments actually as well, at least versus other managed portfolios. Reviewed on: 17th April 2025

I closed my account since it became a Chinese owned bank. As a world hostile nation I am protesting with my feet and showing no support for them. I'm a man of principle and refuse to support bullies. Reviewed on: 16th April 2025

Been with HSBC for a few years, they are reliable but interest rates on savings aren’t the best. Customer service is not great, with them passing off problems. However, app is functional and easy to use, and the in-app customer service system is good. Reviewed on: 15th April 2025

Good branch for general banking, but could use some app polishing. Support was always there when needed at my local branch, however opening times may be inconvenient. Secure payments and checks, and easy to order my physical card. Reviewed on: 11th April 2025
