  • originalKL Kaustubh (call me KL) - he/him (@originalKL) reported from London, England

    @HSBC_UK hi, my mobile app shows api_03 error code and cannot load accounts.

  • MattSav7 Matt (@MattSav7) reported from Barnet, England

    @HSBC_UK I have a problem that I need to resolve urgently.

  • sluicesnorky SNORKY (@sluicesnorky) reported from Borehamwood, England

    @HSBC_UK your customer service over the phone is not something to be desired.

  • ijaen Ivan Alexander (@ijaen) reported from Paddington, England

    @HSBC_UK Hi Abi. Will call tomorrow then but asking customers to roll back is not acceptable. The issue here is the bank, not the apple software. All other banks (Barclays, Bank of America, Revolut and Wise in my case) work perfectly fine.

  • StanislavRH Stanislav Rastvorov (@StanislavRH) reported from Camden Town, England

    But instead they’ve just twitted me another phone number to call and spend another half an hour. UK has some really good examples of nice digital bank experience and I’m sorry the @firstdirect being part of the huge @HSBC_UK can’t provide any good service. #firstdirect

  • Stefan_baisden Baisden 📸🎥 (@Stefan_baisden) reported from Ealing, England

    @HSBC_UK why do I need to sit on hold for an hour on a Wednesday afternoon? What poor service, Hire more phone staff.

  • SmoothRegulator Peter Crowley (@SmoothRegulator) reported from Ealing, England

    Has anyone been short changed by a bank cash point in Ealing Broadway centre? Done by @LBGplc bank about 6m ago, who then denied the £20 list - today @HSBC_UK deducted £80 out of £100 as an ad hoc service charge. Never happened before, over 40 years. This time it’ll be law!

  • notcrowie Phil Crow (@notcrowie) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    @HSBC_UK Great. Let me add another twenty minutes to the problem.

  • ijaen Ivan Alexander (@ijaen) reported from Paddington, England

    @bat1150gs @HSBC_UK It’s awful. My salary gets paid on that account and I’ve been locked out for weeks now. Their response is to install on another device. Not even the web option works as you need a security code in the app.

  • henriquebacksno Henrique Costa Neves (@henriquebacksno) reported from Camden Town, England

    @HSBC_UK I am trying to make some transfers and buying some things with my debit card but my app is not working even my debit card is refusing all my transactions. I am trying to transfer some money to another account I can use

  • paulsim55825613 paul simmons (@paulsim55825613) reported from London, England

    @HSBC_UK Midland Bank would never say “ Try in a bit” sort your **** out HSBC

  • ijaen Ivan Alexander (@ijaen) reported from Paddington, England

    @scottgardner76 @HSBC_UK If the bank does not release a statement soon I’ll have to change my payroll to another bank. I can’t touch my money because to log in on the computer you need a code from the app. I can only use debit card.

  • ShelbyLoasby Shelby Loasby (@ShelbyLoasby) reported from Welwyn Garden City, England

    @HSBC_UK hi guys, I’ve been trying to report fraud since last night and have been hung up on twice and passed around for over an hour. Please help me

  • jayeshashar Jayesh Ashar (@jayeshashar) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    @HSBC_UK the paper statements and notifications are criminal waste of money, paper and efforts. I am sure most clients would be happy to receive soft copies. You should offer this service free or reduce charges

  • mariusfanu Marius Fanu (@mariusfanu) reported from London Colney, England

    @HSBC_UK the public iOS 16 beta are out. Now is your time to “shine”, please fix the iOS app to not crash at launch 🚀

  • CatrionaRitchie Catriona Ritchie (@CatrionaRitchie) reported from Kensington, England

    @WalkerMarcus @cusackandrew I use cash all the time but don't get from @HSBC_UK cos they've abolished most counter service branches and I like specific notes and coins. There is only one between Ealing and Putney.

  • Dorothy737 Dorothy Cohen (@Dorothy737) reported from Barnet, England

    @HSBC_UK stop bombarding me with text messages to the point of harassment. Do any other customers have this problem with HSBC???

  • ijaen Ivan Alexander (@ijaen) reported from Paddington, England

    @HSBC_UK Abi, I don’t want a complaint, I just want to access my bank account 🥹 I’ll use the option you suggested and if that does not work then I’ll file a complaint but let’s give that option a chance.

  • will432455 Will Cardale (@will432455) reported from Welwyn Garden City, England

    @HSBC_UK Hello, are your online banking services down at the moment?

  • sluicesnorky SNORKY (@sluicesnorky) reported from Borehamwood, England

    Here @HSBC_UK you seem to have blocked my card! What happened if i was stranded and needed it, no office available to deal with my problem!! 👎🏻

  • arabella1800 Arabella1800 (@arabella1800) reported

    @ShappiKhorsandi @HSBC_UK I had the same- the magic fix for me was never hitting enter on the keyboard, scroll down to the bottom of the page and click the continue button (I think it is continue). It might not help, but I feel your pain.

  • RandomHero2k18 Leonard Ingle (@RandomHero2k18) reported

    @HSBC_UK @joni_sykes General release.. as in September? pretty much two months away.. Any reason why after months of iOS 16 being available to devs, and now the public that you still don't have the app working? The "solution" is based off of your assumption everyone has spare devices kicking around?

  • Matteo_UK Matteo Chicarella (@Matteo_UK) reported

    @HSBC_UK Is this an issue that historically hasn't got a fix before the actual non-beta version is released?

  • mikemilleresq mike miller (@mikemilleresq) reported

    @ShappiKhorsandi @HSBC_UK I assume you're probably a Premier customer, have you tried the direct Account line for them? Or used that to get at a person in a branch? As they'll have a dedicated manager you can deal with.

  • lfcannie ANN BANKS (@lfcannie) reported

    @HSBC_UK Unbelievable - started switching but going round in circles trying to get OLB - impossible - been on phone waiting for 19 mins....can't put a halt to switching either as can't get through - not on !

  • michaelbisson Michael Bisson (@michaelbisson) reported

    @HSBC_UK @diddledani Can they get it working before the final version is released? As has been stated and confirmed by HSBC in the past the beta iOS is not on the whitelist your app maintains so your app just shuts down. In the past you have added the beta to the white list but not consistently.

  • RandomHero2k18 Leonard Ingle (@RandomHero2k18) reported

    @HSBC_UK @treehorse1971 So this basically means that anyone that wishes to be a part of a beta programme, is shafted? I can't even access the bank via a web browser as your 2FA methods require me to generate a code via an app that doesn't work...

  • michaelbisson Michael Bisson (@michaelbisson) reported

    @HSBC_UK @Medicat0417 Can you provide more details on how you are trying to support the public beta as all your other comments suggest you’re not going to allow the app to open again until the first non beta release.

  • caroline_gracey Caroline Gracey (@caroline_gracey) reported

    @HSBC_UK You failed to edit my SO as instructed over phone. Now I’m overdrawn. I can’t adjust my so online. It says ‘unable to amend your standing order try later’ How do I get Hu help? Can’t get through on phone- can’t solve problem online. Can’t get live chat response.

  • ShappiKhorsandi Shaparak Khorsandi 🌻💙💛 (@ShappiKhorsandi) reported

    Filled in all the forms @HSBC_UK I put in all the codes...still unable to get into my online banking. I'm in tears of frustration, again on hold, again poor customer service person has no clue. I'm losing money while you claw yours you horrible lot.
