Technology lacking however solid bank

I find the app to be quite dated in both decor and usability compared to the barclays app, however it has paym so works perfectly fine, they should take some design tips from apps like revolut! Reviewed on: 26th November 2019

15 years of good service

4
I have been with HSBC ever since I arrived in the UK. I went with them after an appalling experience with Barclays. Over the years I have tried many other banks, but they've all let me down in some way. HSBC is the only one that has had consistently good service. Reviewed on: 25th November 2019

Traditional Bank pushing for the Future.

2
Traditional Bank Account with very little benefits. With the advent of the internet and online banking apps, to many high street banks are closing down. The older generation are not to alert to online applications and would rather still visit a ‘Rare’ local branch to speak to staff. Used to have a local branch but now need to travel 20+ miles to visit a branch to speak to a real person. Reviewed on: 23rd November 2019

Always reliable
