HSBC Bank account reviews (1378)

Reliable Banking

4
I have been with HSBC for about 15 years now and find their internet banking very easy to use. I especially like the "pending transactions" feature in my current account. I check my account daily and this feature reminds me what is going out soon and I can ensure the money is in my account. I have now upgraded to HSBC advance which incurs no monthly fee, and it comes with a range of discounts which I find very handy indeed. Reviewed on: 2nd January 2018

Trustworthy

I've been banking with HSBC since I was 7 years old and they were called The Midland Bank; I opened a Griffin Savers account. I also have my ISA with them. Perhaps for me, it's more a case of sticking with what I know. Reviewed on: 31st December 2017

Good, not great

3
I've always been with HSBC but mainly out of laziness to switch. I wasn't allowed a student account when I became a student even though my credit rating was good. Also have never been allowed an overdraft and was refused a credit card. Probably good in the long run but pretty inconvenient! Reviewed on: 20th December 2017

Great current account with easy online banking

5
Great current account with easy online banking, I use it every week to check my balance and send money etc. The website online is super easy to use compared to other banks. HSBC is the best bank ever and I have been with them for 17 years already! Reviewed on: 15th December 2017
