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

Branch Service

More counters with more staff please Reviewed on: 1st February 2023

No.1 Bank

They offer the best current accounts available on the market. Reviewed on: 1st February 2023

Great apart from depositing cheques on the app

All good apart from depositing cheques on the app. You're never sure if it's worked or not as takes days to appear on account. Doesn't even show as pending. Reviewed on: 31st January 2023

First Direct a brilliant company

Signing up was painless. They offer one of the best digital regular savings accounts too Reviewed on: 31st January 2023

Brilliant customer service

The customer service at HSBC is great, with online chats, messaging services and phone calls. Staff are brilliant and always help or give me the information I need no problem. Reviewed on: 28th January 2023

AVOID - Funds fossil fuel industry

AVOID - I have been with HSBC for quite a lot of years now. As a bank, they are ok to use, but i am so disappointed and angry about the billions of pounds that they invest in the fossil fuel industry. If banks actually cared about the world/ people etc then they would divest the money away from the dangerous fossil fuels that is harming the environment and move the investments into more sustainable industries. AVOID AVOID AVOID AVOID Reviewed on: 26th January 2023
