HSBC Bank account or service department,

Savings account Account opening, closing, or management Pennsylvania

I recieved a letter from HSBC bank in the beginning of - regarding dormancy on my online savings account. I called a representative at the bank who informed me my account was locked and I needed this letter/form notarized and returned to them to re-open the account. I requested that once my account was re-opened I wanted to close it and the sum of the account sent to me in a check. The representative said to just note this on the notarized form and a check would be mailed to me. I sent this notarized form along with my written request to then close the account and mail the check to me on - -. Several weeks later, I did not recieve a check so I called again in the middle of - at which time I was told my address on the account was listed as an old address ( I argued that this could n't be the case as I received correspondence - including the dormancy letter to my current address ). Nontheless, my address was changed over the phone and I was told I would receive a check. 2 weeks later, I still had not received a


no later than Tuesday -. On Tuesday late afternoon, I had still not received a check so I called again.
