HSBC Credit card reviews (126)

Easy to use

5
Online banking is very easy yo use for managing your finances Reviewed on: 12th July 2020

Customer service gone wrong

1
HSBC customer service is systemically broken. There is no clear evidence of departmental communication, nor the appetite to go the extra mile. The attitude and vision toward customer service needs revisited with a focus on engagement and customer satisfaction embedded into its core values. Reviewed on: 24th June 2020

User friendly credit card

4
The credit card is a good standard card, no rewards or anything like that. The good thing about it is the app which gives you access to you credit card, current account and savings accounts. Reviewed on: 27th April 2020

PPI Nightmare

1
I made a PPI claim over a year ago but HSBC still haven't paid me. They've made jump through hoops by making me provide documentation, bring it all + ID into branch and then claiming they don't know who I am? Had to get the ombudsmen involved who have aggreed with my claim and have stated HSBC must pay me out. That was over a month ago but HSBC still haven't paid me. Reviewed on: 15th April 2019
