Review of the HSBC, Bank Account:

OK

Need more staff within branches to deal with queues Reviewed on: 6th November 2017

Mobile app keeps crashing on payment approvals.

Mobile app keeps crashing on payment approvals. Low interest rates on savings. Bank branches are open a short day and not at times when I can get to one. Cash deposit machines in branch only work on perfect notes meaning neee to queue at counter to deposit cash. Reviewed on: 28th February 2024

Horrible service and horrible management.

Horrible service and horrible management. They don't know what they're doing and are a dreadful business. I worked here and can say there systems are slow and unreliable, management believe staff members are replacement so they'll keep hiring new people and stop training the old ones. This is one of the reasons why customers have issues because most of there staff members are new. They don't value staff nor do they value customers, there have been more and more complaints and they refuse to change their systems or the way they run things, staff turnover is the highest. DO NOT BANK WITH HSBC AND DO NOT WORK FOR HSBC. Reviewed on: 27th February 2024

HSBC, good but lacks options...

Overall, HSBC are a decent bank with generally quick and good customer service. The area it lacks the most is it's accounts, they aren't competitive and don't provide decent interest rates. The app is really easy to use and handy to see all your accounts in one place... Unless you've had to move elsewhere for better rates. GIA account is nice and simple and gives great options for investors of all levels. Reviewed on: 22nd February 2024

Great online support.

Great online support.Kind and skilled assistants. Reviewed on: 20th February 2024

HSBC Global Account

I started to use HSBC Global Account especially when I am abroad because of the good exchange rates. No need to exchange and carry cash with you, just use your Global account debit card. Reviewed on: 18th February 2024

East access to cash via ATM

Easy to access money and I find their online assistance helpful when I have used them. Reviewed on: 16th February 2024

No interest on my current account is poor to be fair .

No interest on my current account is poor to be fair . However, 4% on the Online Bonus saver is good - Think they need to higher the 50k top limit though if they want to compete with Chase ! Reviewed on: 16th February 2024

Meger products/features

HSBC never understand what customer service mean or loyalty mean. Nor any efforts for customer satisfaction Or to retain a customer. Reviewed on: 15th February 2024
