Review of the HSBC, Credit Card:

Worst Bank of all times - HSBC.

1
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

HSBC credit card experience

I have been really impressed with HSBC's Balance Transfer Credit Card Reviewed on: 4th July 2022

Sneaky late fees

1
Despite setting up a direct debit to always pay my credit card off at the end of the period (under the premise of "never needing to worry about late fees"), it turns out that the direct debit only lasts one year. Without notification, and once in the habit of not paying it off manually, suddenly the direct debit disappears and rather predictably I got stung with a late fee. HSBC support very unhelpful in dealing with the matter. Reviewed on: 15th June 2022

Efficient fast credit card provider

Very efficient on line application for a new credit card, granted within minutes and arrived 48 hrs later. 18 months interest free and £25 incentive what’s not to like. Good online app to support banking with Hsbc too Reviewed on: 16th June 2021
