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

  • 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

    @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.

  • 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.

  • 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!?

  • bennys020 chris (@bennys020) reported from Croydon, England

    @HSBC_UK app not working

  • 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 !!!!

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

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

  • 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???

  • dhoworth1 David Howorth (@dhoworth1) reported from Esher, England

    .@HSBC_UK Any update on when your app will be operational! Seems very bizarre that you have known issues for over 24 hrs and you still have not communicated to your customers!

  • 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.

  • 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?🙈🤬

  • paulhelpspeople Paul Smith (@paulhelpspeople) reported from Hounslow, England

    @HSBC_UK Hi Steve. All I ask is that the cashier’s don’t judge & don’t take it out on customers when there’s no paying in slips. Better still get both cheque paying in machines working, as that would help everyone. Thanks for your support. Kind regards, Paul

  • 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.

  • NBJNiloo Nilema (@NBJNiloo) reported from Tottenham, England

    @HSBC_UK - is there a problem with the app. I have reinstalled it because it logs off everytime I press pay&transfer.

  • 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.

  • 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!!

  • paulhelpspeople Paul Smith (@paulhelpspeople) reported from Hounslow, England

    It never ceases to amaze me that a full service bank @HSBC_UK can be so unhelpful. I only wanted to pay in a cheque (rarity I know) into my @firstdirect account, but it was all so much hassle. Machines not working, no paying in slips. Unhelpful staff! FD you are so much better!!

  • andrelondonuk Risk On 🇺🇦 (@andrelondonuk) reported from Bromley, England

    @HSBC_UK can you tell e why your Bromley bank is closed staff said security issue... WTH

  • 0x013F6DAF2fc89 thewolfofcrypto.eth (@0x013F6DAF2fc89) reported from City of London, England

    Annoyed by the fact that every time a bank transfer contains the word #crypto @HSBC_UK marks it as “fraudulent” and block it. #Banks are the real fraud #Crypto is the future

  • vmahadevan1 MV (@vmahadevan1) reported from Hounslow, England

    Opened a jade account with @HSBC_UK after making a move from @StarlingBank. Very first transaction from the new account…Fail! Transaction seems to have gone thru, but get an error message saying there was a problem!Hate to compare but Starling App was so perfectly engineered

  • george_ist George (@george_ist) reported

    @HSBC_UK hello, your iOS app is crashing on all devices using iOS 15, unable to load. Would be great to fix it as soon as possible. Thanks

  • nomopix Noemi Moreno (@nomopix) reported

    @HSBC_UK One of your customer services people, after an hour of constantly putting me on hold to do the checks, tells me won't solve my issue & hangs up on me saying "we're working from home, so there's not much I can do". I'm so angry I'm refraining from swearing.

  • PeteyJayD PT. (@PeteyJayD) reported

    @HSBC_UK I found someone’s HSBC card today. Tried calling your number as, you know, wanted to help. IVR very unhelpful and then told me you are closed. Please try your service from a customer perspective including someone trying to report a found card.

  • PoduvalAparna Aparna Poduval (@PoduvalAparna) reported

    @HSBC_UK I was asked to call the customer care and have called thrice. Once to be disconnected suddenly after waiting for 15mins, second having to have disconnect myself after being told by a customer assistant that she will transfer my call and having had no one for 32 mins - 2

  • LouJoSays LouJo 🇬🇧 (@LouJoSays) reported

    @BO3673 @MotivatedManta @HSBC_UK And pretty much every LE I knew had a plan to carry on working either as a postman or golf course groundskeeper so mortgage would be more than covered!

  • martinstiff Martin Stiff (@martinstiff) reported

    @HSBC_UK Hi. We set up an account with you for my 14 year old daughter a few weeks back and she’s still yet to receive her telephone banking info which means she can’t use your app either. We’ve chased twice but it still hasn’t arrived. Can you help pls?

  • ferretd69 Phil Davis (@ferretd69) reported

    @HSBC_UK Instead of running these 'Self praise' posts, why not get your customer services actually helping customers. It is diabolical at present.

  • faipdeooiad Jimbo Slice (@faipdeooiad) reported

    @HSBC_UK what’s the wait time to speak to customer services? I’m after raising a complaint and closing my account but every time I call I’m on hold for up to an hour

  • fitgeek_uk James H - long covid sucks :( (@fitgeek_uk) reported

    Hi @HSBC_UK , is there any problem with the mobile app on the iPad? Every time I try and open it, it crashes out back to my home screen before I can even put passwords etc in? Many thanks

  • sucksfacebook Barry House (@sucksfacebook) reported

    @HSBC_UK there’s seems to be an issue with the latest app update or slightly older iPhones. App crashes before we can enter our log on details. How soon will this be fixed by?
