I have been with HSBC (current account) for almost 16 years and they have been brilliant throughout. I don’t really need to think about my account as it just works. Reviewed on: 11th February 2018

Really don't care about the little people.

1
Been a customer for 20 years and I go for some help after getting into some financial difficulty for the 1st time and was treated awfully. I was pretty much dismissed without even glancing at my details or history. As soon as I clear my overdraft with them i'm out of there! I would not recommend them to anyone Reviewed on: 11th February 2018

Excellent service and support

HSBC have been my bank since their transition from Midland Bank to Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank. They have provided me with excellent support through some very trying times and always been at the end of the phone with advise and products to help me. I use them for business banking too, where they also excel. Reviewed on: 10th February 2018
