HSBC Bank account or service account opening, closing, or management

October 10, 2015 - I have a Promotional Advance Savings '' account at HSBC Bank. HSBC has just announced that they are going to change the statement frequency on this account to quarterly instead of monthly, also implying that they will change the posting of interest accrued to quarterly instead of monthly. This arbitrary and unilateral action is unfair to customers, who depend on receiving their interest postings monthly as originally agreed to when the account was opened. I do n't care if they change the statement frequency for new accounts from this date forward, but I think it is unsat for them to arbitrari...

The primary holder passed away, and this Bank found numerous ways to prevent the other holder from getting her money, including canceling a Bank to Bank transfer because the name was not exactly the same.

HSBC Bank account or service account opening, closing, or management

March 31, 2015 - I am from the -, and had a savings account in the US with HSBC. I closed the account last -, but only received the cheque for the balance in - this year. It was impossible to contact the bank. It was impossible to get through their automated phone system, as I do not have the items of ID requested ( as I am not a US citizen ). I emailed them, wrote letters and phoned on numerous occasions before finally getting my money 7 months later. No apology, no explanation, and seemingly no reason for the ridiculously long wait for my money. It has been the most frustrating experience, and with ...
