HSBC Bank account reviews (1295)

HSBC cock up my application.

I opened an account with them which took them 21 days to do!!. GEESSS!. I was leaving TSB who are also a joke!. I tried to open a second account with HSBC, only to be told three weeks later, that my application is missing in their system! I now get texts to ring in as they now have my account, and when I ring in, your on hold for eternity!. My advice is, don't join this crappy service of a bank, and sign up to Starling Bank, who by the way, opened up an account with in 1 hour!!. Now that's service for you. Bye bye HSBC! It's been a awful pleasure. Reviewed on: 12th March 2023

Appalling customer service

Whenever I go into my branch (Sheffield) for anything I am immediately directed to online banking. Staff refuse to assist in person, HSBC does not care about its customers any more. Reviewed on: 11th March 2023

I joined when they offered £200 to switch. Pleased with that. When an issue arose unconnected with that they acted extremely quickly. Reviewed on: 11th March 2023
