Review of the HSBC, Bank Account:

Shocking

1
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

Good personal banking support

Calliing up bank and being able to get through to a human being can be a challenge and frustrating at times. With HSBC my experience has been better than my previous banks where it could take 5-10minutes. This has been the single biggest reason for moving banks in the past. Reviewed on: 7th March 2023
