I had a HSBC Premier Credit card with a Limit of 4k, my balance was £1700 which is less than 50% Utililzation. I have no missed payments and the card hadn’t been used for at least 6months. I was paying the minimum payments which HSBC set at £47 per month. I had been paying this for months when I received at letter talking about increasing my payment amount. The letter described a “suggested” payment amount which was only £63. Simply out of convenience I opted to stay with ... Reviewed on: 22nd January 2025

With so many banks to choose, why even consider HSBC

I applied for an HSBC Visa Credit Card and it was the most unnecessarily complicated application you could imagine.

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 pr... Reviewed on: 18th June 2024

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... Reviewed on: 4th June 2024
