Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Watford and nearby locations:

  • AndrewCarrier Andrew Carrier 🍸 (@AndrewCarrier) reported from Kensington, England

    @dgwbirch @Barclays Looks familiar. @HSBC_UK does the same thing. Go over your daily payment limit and, rather than say that, you get a indecipherable error message leaving you to imagine it’s an IT issue or worse. Why are established banks so bad at this stuff!?

  • hemaljadav Hemal Jadav (@hemaljadav) reported from Brentford, England

    @financialombuds @HSBC_UK Yes online chat and the guys named Santosh is clueless and giving me temporary fix like previous which means I will end up in same situation again

  • firstclubworld Darren (@firstclubworld) reported from Kensington, England

    @HSBC_UK is there an HSBC app problem at the moment I have been trying for over a week to use this app and it just closes down when I press the app icon - I have reinstalled and deleted a lot of times but the app only brings up the logo ? I updated to iOS 15.2 recently ? Pls help

  • hobs62 HOBS62 (@hobs62) reported from Burnham, England

    I’ve spent a total of 8+ hours in the last 3 days holding to speak to an agent @HSBC_UK are there any agents? Online chat is impossible as I can’t sit logged into my business account for hours! My call is apparently important 🙄

  • 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???

  • 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 🚀

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • MurrayAlanLee DREAMVIEW ESTATES (@MurrayAlanLee) reported from Barnet, England

    @HSBC_UK Was in there again just now! Both cash AND cheque machines down plus I gather all systems. And only 1 counter open and gather the main frame is down too? So what I paid in won’t show up?🙈🤬

  • Chris_1987 Chrissy H 🏳️‍🌈 (@Chris_1987) reported from Camden Town, England

    Honestly @HSBC_UK are terrible when you’re in need of help

  • hines_stephen Stephen Hines (@hines_stephen) reported from London, England

    @HSBC_UK @PostOffice Can either of you help?

  • manmohan manmohan (@manmohan) reported from Watford, England

    @HSBC_UK Website is not logging me in?? Tried from all my devices. After I put the login security code the waiting wheel keeps turning. I have urgent requirement & can't login since morning!!

  • AndyJBall Andy Ball (@AndyJBall) reported from St Albans, England

    @HSBC_AUS @HSBC_UK i am in a stalemate with a KYC (Know your customer) issue , and HSBC UK (who can identify me) dont seem to want / be able to talk to HSBC AUS to help resolve. Any chance you can help ?

  • AndrewCarrier Andrew Carrier 🍸 (@AndrewCarrier) reported from Paddington, England

    @harrynwilson What were they protesting? How diabolically awful @HSBC_UK’s mobile app is?

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • seiferxin1 seiferxin (@seiferxin1) reported from London, England

    @HSBC_UK Same issue for past 3wks...still same today

  • MattCartmell Matt Cartmell (@MattCartmell) reported from Paddington, England

    Absolutely appalling levels of customer service with @hsbc_uk business banking -phone service over 1hour wait - but no responsiveness on the Chat app either. If you’re looking for a business account look elsewhere

  • seiferxin1 seiferxin (@seiferxin1) reported from London, England

    @HSBC_UK Further Ive tried this 3 separate devices...mobile phone and 2 different laptops. Ive cleared cache so this is not the issue... especially given 3 different devices.

  • hyfzur Hifzur Rahman (@hyfzur) reported from Watford, England

    @HSBC_UK i had applied for a credit card on 26 mar 2022. Called the customer care 4-5 times since then finally came to know that the application is approved, all clear from the underwriting services team, it's sitting with the banking approval team. It's been a month !!!!

  • mayeilimexx May 🌸 (@mayeilimexx) reported

    @Harshbutfairy @HSBC_UK @Stonewallhousin They wouldn’t necessarily see the ad would they if it wasn’t targeted for them? And sometimes people need an organisation that supports them to signpost them to resources. In the same way Shelter would for other homeless people? Just really don’t understand your problem

  • DJ_DazzyD2016 DJ Dazzy D (@DJ_DazzyD2016) reported

    @HSBC_UK I'm a Business Banking customer and I've now been in call queues totalling over ten hours this week to get an issue resolved with a payment. Can a manager get back to me as this is unacceptable?

  • nudul1 Kirsty Ross (@nudul1) reported

    @HSBC_UK It's a 13 year old statement not 3 year old. And the person is no longer a customer, hasn't been for 11 years.

  • kyri_ Kyri K (@kyri_) reported

    @HSBC_UK They answered after 1 hour and 15 minutes but the don’t have security clearance to check my account. I’ve now been on hold for another 15 minutes for that. Is this a joke? It doesn’t seem to be April fools. This is a business account I just don’t believe this service.

  • StuartMansour stusmasterchief (@StuartMansour) reported

    @mayeilimexx @HSBC_UK @Stonewallhousin Use my brain? Why the insult? Please explain to me why it matters who a person chooses to be intimate with has any bearing on whether we choose to help someone. It literally doesn't matter! They need help and support, not being segregrated into groups to tick boxes.

  • meloncleveland Unum Amin Ph.D. (@meloncleveland) reported

    Hey @HSBC_UK I’ve had a payment pending on my account since May 17, have called in internationally 10 times and spoken to various reps who have been unable to resolve this issue. Feeling very frustrated at not being able to spend my own money. Please help

  • RossNotMorty TheWorldsAStage (@RossNotMorty) reported

    @HSBC_UK @Stonewallhousin Just sounds like mental issues to me

  • coups_q XRPatriot_coups (@coups_q) reported

    @HSBC_UK @Stonewallhousin Yet the British government housed all homeless ppl in the first planned lockdown?? Why not use the rothchilds money they found over 500T in gold bullion so enough to sort this problem out sharpish!!

  • kavsrn kavsrn (@kavsrn) reported

    @HSBC_UK After useless customer service I raised a complaint. This has now been resolved and training is being provided to the failing areas. To their credit HSBC has conducted a thorough investigation keeping me apprised along the way and have credited my account with £100. 👍

  • DollyDecades DollyDecades (@DollyDecades) reported

    @HSBC_UK I want to order a new cheque book. I have tried phoning and tried online chat. I have reached a blank, just a message to contact you on Twitter or FB. Please can somebody help me?
