  @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?

  So @HSBC_UK won't let me log in to my account on my phone, because I have a Medical ID app. Amazing

  HSBC Apple Pay. Possibly all(?) HSBC UK customers have woken to an email from them confirming registration of their card on to Apple Pay. Contact centre on +30 minute wait times as concerned customers phone in. I’m told the comms were sent in error. @HSBC_UK

  @andyward1964 @HSBC_UK I hope you’re not expecting an answer. The days of good customer service in the UK are long gone my friend.

  @HSBC_UK at some point banks need to accept that some clients need actual help to set up accounts rather than do a bit, send them away, when client receives emails and no clue what they are supposed to do esp when they are using old mobile devices, no clue how to upload info

  @HSBC_UK You've made it impossible to apply via mobile for a loyalty cash ISA:- "A new way to log in" requests:- "Open your mobile banking app"... HINT: The app is already open 'cos I'm trying to apply for a loyalty cash ISA!! Gave up after 3 attempts. "A new way to log in" isn't perchance preparatory to government's scorned DIgitalID...?

  @HSBC_UK I know where the local one is and it’s miles away and my mum and elderly people can’t access easily! It’s a shame a bank like hsbc doesn’t get involved in these banking hubs when everyone else seems to be able to ….
