Loyal Customer
I have been a loyal customer at this bank for over 12 years and happy with the services they provided. There was an issue with fraud with my bank card. A person had stolen my bank number and used it to make several purchases. The purchases added to well over $500. I was on the phone with customer to resolve the issue, which took no more than 10 minutes. The customer service representative understood the situation and had no problems crediting me the entire amount that was illegally charged. The representative understood the situation and had no problems resolving the issue. He had asked the right questions to assess the situation and appeared to be just as concern as I was. He made me feel that he actually cared about the situation and made sure the issue was resolved. He exhibited so signs of impatience or negativity. I did not feel like I had to jump through several hurdles to resolve the issue. I felt that he went above and beyond than what he was required to do to help me feel safe banking with HSBC. From the experience with the representative, I would not hesitate ever to call customer service with any questions or issues. Within a week, a new bank card was provided to me and had no problems since. Thank you so much HSBC!
HSBC Online Savings account works like it should.
I use HSBC for an online savings account. I primarily chose HSBC because they were paying a higher interest rate than my local bank was. I have used the account to hold money for other purchases I may or may not have during the year when I need quick access to money. I have not had very many problems with deposits, though most of my deposits are just transfers from one bank to another and these are initiated entirely online. I have only had to contact customer service once when a deposit did not show up as scheduled, and the email system they have in place worked fine to get this corrected in a day or two. I would recommend this bank to anyone looking for a no frills online savings account.
Crazy HSBC Limbo Trying To Open Direct Savings Account!
After 20 years as a regular HSBC client (with no problems other than the disappearance of many HSBC ATM machines in NYC) I've encountered 2 recent problems with HSBC false ads and impossible procedures. This review concerns the worst example, my ongoing, incredibly frustrating and ludicrous experience trying to open a Direct Savings Account. This seemed like a no-brainer because of the link to my current HSBC account and the higher interest rates. In my original application on the HSBC Direct site, I went through all the procedures until I was supposed to receive a security passcode on my cell phone, which never arrived. I contacted the chatline and after about 45 minutes of waiting and consultation with the rep-- including referral to 2 additional customer service phone numbers on which the 1st rep hung up and the 2nd said they did not deal with Direct Savings, I was told that my cell number which I have had for years was unverified and I should cancel the application and try again. My 2nd application was automatically rejected, as was a 3rd attempt. I contacted HSBC Security by phone and was told to try again ater 24 hours. Same automatic rejection over 24 hours later. I recontacted Security and was referred to another customer service line, where, after the rep appeared unable to deviate from a useless prepared script, I asked to speak to a manager. The manager was helpful and told me to call back the following day after a chance to research the problem. When I called back, I was told my application failed because I had answered a security credit question incorrectly (no mention of my cell number appearing to be the original problem). As advised, I printed my credit report and changed my cell phone to my primary line on the HSBC US site and waited 3 days to reapply on the Direct site. This time, my application was canceled due to "system problems" and I was directed to the HSBC US site to resume. As there was no obvious way to resume on this site, I fired up the chat line robot and eventually reached a non-robot who told me I should get an email about my application status in 3 business days. Today, on the 4th business day, with no sign of an email, I tried to check the application status on the HSBC US chat line and got the robotic message that online applications are taking 10 business days to approve...Honestly, this is the most appalling example of bad customer service and poor business procedures and communication that I have ever experienced anywhere! I am now waiting another 6 business days to see if HSBC ever responds to this application but I also now have serious questions about whether this is a reflection of their overall banking culture and processes and whether it is safe to entrust money to Direct Savings.
HSBC Money Market Account
Opened an account based on their 2% advertised rate. Within a week of opening the account the rate dropped to 1.85% despite the 2% rate still being offered for new accounts. Bait and switch tactics.
