HSBC Credit Card reviews (105)

Review of the HSBC, Credit Card:

Worst Bank of all times - HSBC.

I applied HSBC Credit card through the mobile banking app. I am a Premier HSBC customer and have been with the bank for almost two years. After doing a hard check on my credit profile, my application was approved and I receive sms confirmation mentioning my limit. However, they asked me to visit the bank few times. First they wanted some documents and they wanted me to upload my signature in person along with a signed Terms and Conditions form. Few weeks went by and new requests kept on coming. After multiple weeks and going through all of this, when I finally checked the status of my card, I found out that they had messed up the process and I needed to re-apply and do this all over again. I am closing all my accounts with them. In the era of Monzo, Starling and Santander, I have no business with them anymore. Reviewed on: 4th June 2024

Terrible customer service - avoid at all costs!

After receiving my Platinum CC with a 10000$ Credit limit, I reduced it online to $6000 for security reasons. A month later I wanted to book international flights and tried online to increase limit back to $10000. Incising limit online did not work. I had to refill the form (provided same details as original application) and credit increase was denied. I called HSBC but the call center staff unable to provide reasons (offered to reapply in 3month time!). If I had been advised prior to reducing limit I had to re-apply to re-instate the original CC limit, I would not have reduced the limit. As a result, I missed out on a better airfare costing me money. I have now moved all my business to ANZ. Great job Jessica Power, Head of Wealth and Personal Banking, HSBC Bank Australia Limited for properly annoying and loosing customers! Never again. Reviewed on: 18th June 2024

Total waste of time!!!

I was pre-approved for 0% balance transfer of £5000, but after answering personal questions both on line and over the phone, was offered a credit limit of £1000. Total waste of everyone’s time, and felt that ai had sold my soul to the bank for them to then not approve the credit ai was applying for! Reviewed on: 4th February 2024

New credit card

Just took out a new credit card. I am already a customer so there wasn't much admin but the process was quick and easy. I'm happy. Reviewed on: 4th January 2024

Rude staff

They are so rude. They should be trained to attend to customers. I don't think they won't work. They don't listen to you. Reviewed on: 5th December 2023
