Best bank ever!

One of the key things I expect as a tech savvy user is to be able to use their services on any device with minimum clicks and maximum features. HSBC have never given me a reason to complain yet. They are like the heart of a system, if it operates very well, we don't notice the heart, but even one problem and it becomes critical. Can I also add that I love that there is an option in the website to bypass the token thing. I know that's perceived as less secure, but anytime there is a transfer to an unknown payee or any change to personal details, it immediately asks for token security. This is so much better than banks who put layers of security to the point the website/app becomes unusable. Thanks HSBC, you make my life easier. Reviewed on: 31st January 2019

Great Bank never had any problems.

I've been banking with HSBC for 15 years and in all that time I've never had a problem with them and any slight issues have always been resolved in a timely manner. Reviewed on: 27th January 2019

GREAT

GREAT. But the app could do with updating. Reviewed on: 26th January 2019

No problems but not the best rates!

I have banked with HSBC since a child. Never had any problem with them, always friendly in branch and once online banking is set up it's simple and easy to use from both phone and computer. I only haven't given it full marks as I don't think they offer as competitive rates of interest or rewards as some competitors. Reviewed on: 25th January 2019

No cash back on bills, etc

HSBC 's current bank account do not offer almost any benefits. Their credit card is very expensive Reviewed on: 25th January 2019

Student Account

I have had a wonderful experience with HSBC’s student account. The interest free overdraft of £1000 has allowed me to get on as a student with financial peace of mind. The student credit card is good too. Online banking is excellent, and the mobile app is fabulous. Reviewed on: 17th January 2019

Branch closures!

I have been with HSBC for twenty years and have always been very pleased with them, but unfortunately my local branch has now closed and so it is with regret that I am looking for a new bank. Reviewed on: 13th January 2019

Great Bank Account

I have banked with HSBC over 20 years. Any issues have been resolved quickly and professionally. Reviewed on: 13th January 2019
