'Alright'

I have been with my bank for over 30 years. I have never had any problems with them. I have thought of changing banks to get 'rewards' but then can't really do with the hassle. However, I would like some rewards from my bank. Reviewed on: 30th December 2019

Helpful when needed

I have been with HSBC for 41 years, very scary but I have never had a problem with their service, they have been helpful when I needed them to be. When I had a £500 cash point failure at Christmas they were helpful and kept me informed on the progress. The staff are helpful and friendly when I visit. You can now do so much on line and even pay in cheques up to £500. I have looked at changing but see no benefit in doing so. Reviewed on: 24th December 2019
