  • 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!! 👎🏻

  • PompeySavs Andrew Saveall (@PompeySavs) reported from Spelthorne District, England

    On hold with @HSBC_UK for over an hour. Absolutely shocking and poor service.

  • 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

  • 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

  • Peter_Wilkins78 Peter Wilkins (@Peter_Wilkins78) reported from Kingston upon Thames, England

    @HSBC_UK is the app down? Have tried and says there's an error - try again later

  • 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.

  • 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 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.

  • 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???

  • 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!!

  • 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!!

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

    @HSBC_UK app not working

  • dominicJB7 Dominic Baker (@dominicJB7) reported from Kingston upon Thames, England

    @HSBC @HSBC_UK I have now Benn in branch for 3hours today to try to help my Ukrainian guests set up an account. 3rd visit to branch. Really not at all helpful.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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!

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

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

  • dolias_sakis Athanasios Dolias (@dolias_sakis) reported

    Great job @HSBC_UK !! Only 38 min awaiting time on the phone so far and keep going. World record customer service speed.

  • redredeye redredeye (@redredeye) reported

    @Hedgemama @HSBC_UK Other people have reported the same issue on twitter

  • saintliana Liana (@saintliana) reported

    @PennineHeather @HSBC_UK Having same issue but it has now blocked me completely from online banking. On hold for nearly an hour to speak to someone 😡

  • ashlawson Ash Lawson (@ashlawson) reported

    @HSBC_UK your ‘security’ measures make your app, online and phone banking entirely unusable. You have too many ambiguously named factors and enough secret answers to write my biography. Yet I can’t log in. 🤬

  • utlaegr J M R (@utlaegr) reported

    @HSBC_UK So, still no progress. Had to go into the branch but each time they tried phoning, the call was disconnected. Filled in forms to set up telephone banking but when I phone the number given to register, it says I can't use the service because I haven't registered. A joke!

  • sanemalper Sa.Ne.M. Al.P.Er (@sanemalper) reported

    @HSBC_UK is there a problem with your customer services? I’ve been simultaneously on the phone, on the app chat and on the browser chat to get through to a human agent for over an hour now !!! 😡😡😡

  • twitburkie colin burke (@twitburkie) reported

    @HSBC_UK how do we obtain replacement for my wife's credit card following fraudulent activity. I've been told to do this in the app, but only have that option for my own credit card. My wife doesn't have this card listed as an option and was advised I can do so in the app. Help!

  • TrentTech Alex Darby (@TrentTech) reported

    The new UI in the @HSBC_UK mobile banking app is awful. For example, where you used to be able go into an account and see all the info at a glance, you now have to swipe down to see the info. The overall UX of it is ironically more complicated due to the "simplified" UI.

  • PennineHeather It's just Heather. (@PennineHeather) reported

    What's happened to @HSBC_UK app and how the heck do I log in?
