Review of the HSBC, Bank Account:

View on product page

Demanding customer but very happy to stay where I am

Moved to them 5 years ago after my previous bank deteriorated badly. Great mobile app, particularly the superb Balance after Bills feature, so you always know what you will have left over to spend, and instant notifications for security and to keep you up to date. Good website, which includes OFX and QIF transaction downloads so you can use your own personal finance software. Only had to ring them a couple of times in five years, and they answered straight away in the middle of the day and were very helpful. Rock solid reliability and dependability, with absolutely no hassles such as glitchy software, logon issues or declined debit or credit card payments that you see with other banks. Apart from the current account and credit card, I've also opened the separate Global Money Account for travelling abroad, and an Online Bonus Saver for quick easy access to extra money through the app if unexpected expenditure arises, and as a holding account until I put money into building society savings. Points for improvement include maybe bringing back the facility to send secure messages from online banking, and increasing the daily transfer limit, but these are very small beer compared to the excellent overall experience. I find their low-ish Ipsos and TrustPilot rankings puzzling, because the bank I left ranks higher with both, but HSBC have been way, way better. Highly recommended if you want hassle-free mobile and online personal banking, that just lets you get on with your life. Reviewed on: 6th September 2024
