HSBC Bank account reviews (1301)

Helpful, freindly but slightly let down.

4
Been banking with HSBC for many years before switching and they were very good. Always a freindly voice at the end of the phone and always able to help me with all enquiries big and small. I was however disapointed when I visted a branch to close an account, after i left thinking all was sorted it only came to my attention 6 months later that in fact they hadn't closed the account which amouted to some charges my way which is currently in dispute. Other than this one incident i was very happy with there service and would still recomend them. Reviewed on: 15th January 2018

Excellent Help Solving Problems

We had a joint account and were having problems getting one of the cards reissued. The staff in our local branch were brilliantly helpful and sorted out the issue with the online banking system quickly and efficiently for us. Reviewed on: 13th January 2018

Awful customer service

1
extremely unhelpful, rude customer service agents who do not appear to listed to your issues but just repeat platitudes from a script. We had an issue where cash paid in at a branch "disappeared" for over 2 weeks, during which time outgoing payments were bounced and we incurred bank charges. We had to fight tooth and nail to get reimbursed, they refused to admit the error was theirs. Dreadful service. Reviewed on: 6th January 2018
