Excellent customer service. I had a strange transaction come out of my account one day and they immediately helped me resolve the issue and get my money back. Been using them for nearly 20 years. Reviewed on: 15th June 2024

I've banked with HSBC for 10 years and for the most part found them very helpful and fair. In recent years I've noticed the customer service has gone downhill and the interest rates are not competitive. Reviewed on: 14th June 2024

Do NOT use HSBC!

Do NOT use HSBC! I have been trying to access my the money in my account for 2 years! I got the Australian banking watchdog AFCA involved & STILL can´t get my money! They seem to be getting hacked as they keep having the wrong phone number listed for me despite me having to change it. Their website fails half the time too! Reviewed on: 18th May 2024
