This HSBC spam is absolute waste of my time!

Absolute waste of my time! I'm HSBC UK customer for 20 years. Having multiple private & business accounts with HSBC.

Very understanding regarding payment suspensions, polite and friendly staff, in a particularly frustrating time seeing as there was nothing any of us could Des about it. Reviewed on: 9th March 2023
