Review of the HSBC, Bank Account:

Shocking

Used telephone banking to change my address as I have moved. The person I spoke to was not at all clear and spoke very quietly I asked them if they would talk louder but throughout the call they spoke very quietly. They told me after about half an hour that I had not passed the security questions and that the account was locked and I would have to go into a branch of the bank to rectify. The only branch in Northampton is in the town center is closed until 19th December?? My personal account details are being sent to the old address where all the occupants will now have access to my account?? Reviewed on: 25th November 2022

Amazing bank

Been with them for over 12 years Reviewed on: 29th March 2023

Long time customer

Long time customer of HSBC, they do everything they do well, but haven't kept up to speed with the finteches and seem a little dated now Reviewed on: 23rd March 2023

Great

Is everything perfect, no problems Reviewed on: 21st March 2023

Great app

Better than most high street banks, great app. Reviewed on: 20th March 2023

Poor customer service and simply do not care

In my experience very poor customer service (basic things can take up to four times as long, often with someone on the other side of the world who doesn’t understand the system or products or can speak clearly). No interest in customer service or genuine desire to help customers with mortgage/rates in this era of increasing cost of living challenges. No in-branch support despite visiting numerous times and asking to see someone to help me get a better mortgage rate. Will be leaving HSBC as soon as I can get a mortgage wiry an alternative provider. Simply too big, hugely inefficient and no understanding of their customers which comes across in spades at every level. Reviewed on: 19th March 2023

The best

Any issue costumer service ready for everything to be sorted Reviewed on: 17th March 2023

LARGE CHOICE OF PRODUCTS

No profit on savings

I have been saving each penny but never got any interest on the amount in my account. Then why not to prefer other banks. Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

Very helpful staff each time I ring. I get friendly advisors who sort any query I may have Reviewed on: 16th March 2023
