  @itvnews How will people bank with @HSBC_UK who don't have any access to a mobile phone?This is incredibly short sighted.

  @HSBC_UK Hi, I’m not a customer but recd a fake text allegedly from HSBC about a security alert on my account and to click on a link. Clearly fake, taken a screen grab of text if your fraud team are interested?

  @HSBC_UK you were informed 6 weeks ago that my father had passed away, however you keep calling my mum asking to speak to him. What is your vulnerable customer policy. Disgusting behaviour!

  Husband opens up a new account with @HSBC_UK.. card arrives HSBC: haha no, we’re going to block your card before you’ve even used it, because of fraudulent activity on an account that hasn’t been used yet.

  @HSBC_UK dreadful combative approach by complaints handler Monica. You get my tax status incorrect, as I'm only the POA on my brother's account, then blame me for your error. It's taken since Oct 2025 to get here. Help @financialombuds

  @HSBC_UK also, please revert back how to log onto the desktop site. I like to use it on mobile sometimes and Impossible to log in now as it needs the QR code from the app.

  @HSBC_UK @CleansedTweets NO DMs this is to be resolved on X, and customer waives confidentiality
