HSBC

I put money in, I get money out. Other than that, nothing to report! Reviewed on: 18th February 2016

Never had any problems

Have never had problems with HSBC. They keep in contact by letter. The online banking system is easy to use and is secure. I have never needed to think about switching to another bank. Reviewed on: 18th February 2016

Great Day-To-Day Banking

Great for everyday use, but closure of branches past few months is unwelcome news Reviewed on: 18th February 2016

Above the law

Bank has been good too me ,shame about the Mexican money laundering and the "Pathetic" threats about leaving the UK,if you want leave the UK I will help you pack...time to change banks Reviewed on: 18th February 2016

The app is rubbish!

I use the HSBC app to check my bank account every day and it almost always doesn't load or has 'Sorry this service is unavailable' and it drives me up the wall! Reviewed on: 18th February 2016

foreclosed the moment I told em I was redundant

I decided that I needed to inform the bank that I was redundant and looking for work I know that last post is at 4:30 so when the next day after the 3:00 meeting when a letter arrived telling me they had closed my credit line I knew what the "manager" had been typing during our interview I would like to see these tax avoiding gits get their comeuppance Reviewed on: 18th February 2016

overall satisfation since the '60's

from the Midland days to todays digital offering I've had all the advice and guidance to take me through life, from day to day banking to loans, credit cards and savings. My family have followed suit. Reviewed on: 18th February 2016

Never had any grounds for complaint.

I have been a customer of HSBC since 1987 when it was Midland Bank. I can't fault them in any way, and have embraced the advent of online banking. Reviewed on: 18th February 2016
