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

Impossible to withdraw cash over the counter

1
If you are thinking of opening an HSBC… If you are thinking of opening an HSBC Advance Bank account or transferring from another bank, I highly recommend changing your decision. If you deposit your money you won’t be able to withdraw it back in cash. I visited two different branches yesterday and today and was declined to withdraw a small amount of cash over the counter. I was asked to provide official documents in order to get my money back. I had to listen an hour of lecture as they are only doing it to protect myself. I'm now considering to close the account after 23 years of having it. But there is also a problem/ they don't have any cash in their vaults to give me. I will also need to book an appointment with the area manager if I decide to close the account. Doesn't HSBC have a reputation as the most non-compliant AML bank in the world?
